Do you think Lysol, Pine Sol, or Bleach is the best?

Well, I use several different cleaning and disinfecting products but bleach is the cheapest by far and is just as effective (and sometimes more effective). The only problem is that it will make white spots on your clothes if you are not careful. It is also hard on your hands if they are submerged in bleach water for any length of time.

Youare so right! I use different too. and I think bleach is the best especially in some areas. Bathroom for one. I like to use other things too but from time to time I like to use bleach. Thank you for your response and happy posting!

I find it a toss up depending on how bad I need something cleaned. If it is the bathroom, oh yeah BLEACH. lol. Anyhow, I usually clean with Lysol because I like the smell. Bleach seems to make everything taste nasty. Ha ha.

I worked in a lab with blood and we always used bleach to clean the countertops as a disinfectant.

I use bleach to disinfect stuff. So I guess that's the best.

Bleach is the best, but it makes my eyes burn. I love the smell of pine sol. Both cleansers make the house smell so clean after a day out. Lysol doesn't quite do it for me.

Hi, My wife runs a cleaning service, When you want it to be disinfected, she says to use bleach, for it will not only leave a pure clean smell, no perfumes to just cover up the mold or mildew, bacterial smells, Bleach fills these pathogens. So be truly clean and use bleach. If you want it to smell sweet use something to add smell after cleaning with bleach. But be careful not to mix other cleaners with bleach, you can produce some poisonous gases by mixing with bleach. You should also make sure you have good ventilation when you use bleach, for it is a strong cleanser. Good Luck, and happy cleaning, Oahu Lopaka
