🦠THE “ANTIBACTERIAL” MYTH: Why knowing your products matters!
🤔 Have you ever noticed how many cleaning tips online suggest using Fairy Antibacterial washing up liquid on bathroom surfaces or toilets because of that “antibacterial” label?
❌ As a professional cleaner, I see this advice a lot. But here is a little insider secret: it’s not doing what you think it’s doing!
💖 Don’t get me wrong, Fairy is an absolute powerhouse. It’s a fabulous cleaner and an unbeatable degreaser for shifting stubborn soap scum in tubs or making shower glass gleam. But it is a CLEANER, not a hard surface sanitiser.
🧽 If you read the bottle closely, the manufacturers explicitly state that it is formulated to kill 99.9% of bacteria on the sponge to keep it fresh.
🪣 Once it is diluted into a bucket of water or wiped onto a hard surface, the antibacterial concentration drops. It will lift and rinse away dirt and grime beautifully, but it will NOT disinfect or kill heavy bacteria on your toilet or high touch areas.
