Basic-G vs. Chlorine Bleach

Why I choose Basic-G as our disinfectant over bleach. Bleach is highly toxic, can be dangerous if it comes into contact with other chemicals like ammonia, is very harmful to the environment and does not do a good job at disinfecting. Those bleach wipes you use are even worse. For some reason, people think they are safe to use on their skin – they are certainly not! Let’s look at a few comparisons of Basic-G and Chlorine Bleach: EPA Registered as a Disinfectant? Basic-G –Yes  Bleach  – not always, it can depend on the brand This is good to know if your school or business requires state approval on disinfectants. Bleach does not always meet those standards. Residual Effectiveness?   Basic-G  - Up to 3 days  Bleach  - No more than 1 hour after application* *In undisturbed lab conditions using E. Coli (one of the more resistant organisms in fecal material) on linoleum. This can mean that once you clean, the effectiveness wears off very quickly.
