Q. Can you make your own cleaner or disinfectant to kill coronavirus?
Yes. Though it’s safest to use a store-bought cleaner, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends a diluted bleach solution (⅓ cup bleach per 1 gallon of water or 4 teaspoons bleach per 1 quart of water) for virus disinfection.
If you don’t have bleach, you could use isopropyl alcohol or hydrogen peroxide to disinfect certain surfaces. But do not mix different active ingredients together because doing so can create poisonous gases and cause serious burns.
“An important general rule is that you shouldn’t immediately wipe a disinfecting solution off as soon as you’ve applied it to a surface,” Schaffner says. “Let it sit there long enough to kill the viruses first.” Read the product’s directions and let it dry completely.
If you can’t find your favorite brand of cleaner right now, know that there are many store-bought products that work to inactivate viruses. You could look for options on the Environmental Protection Agency’s website, which has a list of disinfectants that meet the agency’s criteria for use against the new coronavirus.
