Natural cleaning products are great for general dirt and soil removal, but they may not be the best at combatting the COVID-19 and other bacteria and germs. That’s because many eco-friendly cleaning products are not made for disinfecting.
For maximum protection, stick with the EPA List N, which contains all of the disinfectant products that are effective against COVID-19. You can search this list using keywords for safer disinfectant ingredients that the EPA still considers effective against COVID-19. This includes hydrogen peroxide, ethanol, isopropanol, peroxyacetic acid, citric acid, and L-lactic acid.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends more frequent cleaning and disinfecting of high-touch surfaces, using a disinfectant from the EPA List N, during a COVID-19 exposure or outbreak.
