One of the essential aspects of gardening is keeping your tools clean and free of contaminants. There are various ways to disinfect your tools, and the most effective method depends on the type of tool and the bacteria or fungi that are causing the contamination. For example, you can disinfect tools with chlorine bleach or a household disinfectant. Chlorine bleach is effective against bacteria, while household disinfectants are effective against fungi. You can also sanitize tools with boiling water or a commercial sanitizer. Boiling water is effective against bacteria and fungus, while commercial sanitizers are more effective against bacteria.
