Difference Between Cleaning and Disinfecting  

More than just nice-to-have products, cleaning, and disinfectant supplies are essential tools in your fight to keep dirt, dust, grime, and germs from accumulating on your household surfaces. Although cleaners and disinfectants are often used interchangeably, they have their differences:

• Cleaning Supplies help to physically remove things like dirt or germs from objects and surfaces. When it comes to germs, cleaning won’t kill them but will help reduce their presence in your home.
• Disinfectants use chemicals to kill germs. Disinfecting recently cleaned surfaces or objects may help reduce the spread of germs. However, it is important to always follow manufacturer instructions for safe and effective use of all products.

And while disinfectants and cleaners serve individual purposes, many products combine the best of both to make getting a safe and clean home even easier.

Household Cleaning Solutions

Household cleaning products are solutions whose job it is to remove dirt and organic matter from surfaces using soap or detergents. Some cleaning solutions can be used across a variety of surfaces while others have more specific purposes.

Disinfectant Cleaning Products

Disinfectant supplies are solutions that kill viruses and bacteria on surfaces using chemicals. They are one type of antimicrobial pesticide and are registered by the EPA, so you can easily check to see if the product is effective against a specific type of germ.

Liquid and spray disinfectant supplies are household staples, but disinfectants are also useful on the go. Surface lets you ensure a clean surface anywhere, from a flight home for the holidays to date night at a movie theater.
