Description

Our clothes are in constant contact with bacteria throughout our day-to-day activities, for example through contact with contaminated surfaces, other people and our own bodies. Bacteria can spread from one fabric to another in the laundry basket, from the washing-machine drum to the next load. Some of these bacteria can survive following the wash cycle. When it comes to certain laundry loads such as children's clothes or sportswear, you want to eliminate bacteria that may cause illnesses and create lingering bad smells. But detergents alone don't actually kill all bacteria. Introducing Lysol Laundry Sanitizer, an additive specially designed to kill 99.9% of bacteria in laundry*. Simply add Lysol Laundry Sanitizer to your rinse cycle. It does not contain any chlorine bleach and even works in cold water so is safe to use on most fabrics including whites, colors and darks.

Q: Why do we need to sanitize everything?

submitted by This is stupid - 8 years ago
  • A: Because some of us have jobs where our clothes get gross stuff on them and if they're not washed with sanitizer(can't use bleach,have black uniform) they start to stink horribly

    submitted bykatiep1200 - 8 years ago
  • A: Nobody said "we need to sanitize everything." Some people need to sanitize some things. For example, I have cloth bedding for my guinea pigs. I can wash it on hot, but it still doesn't come out smelling fresh. I don't "need to sanitize everything", but to avoid bad smells & bacteria from guinea pig bedding, It behooves me to sanitize it.

  • A: Is this septic safe?

    submitted bycountrygirl103 - 8 months ago
  • A: This product is perfect for people who purchase clothing at thrift shops, yard sales, second-hand stores, etc.

    submitted bySoupyjune - 8 years ago
  • A: I know this question is two years old, but I'm pretty sure they're wanting this now. People sanitize things for various reasons; where they work, where they bought the clothes, just to be clean.

    submitted byNadia - 5 years ago
  • A: No one is forcing you to purchase. They came out with the product because of people like you who don't feel the need to be clean.

Q: How do I use it there are no instructions on bottle, do I add to the detergent or the rinse cycle

submitted by jdth - 9 years ago
  • A: This is my second bottle and I add a capful into the wash with detergent.

    submitted byKimmeeT - 9 years ago
  • A: I read on the Lysol website that it needs to soak in just water for at least 15 minutes to properly sanitize the clothing...it said not to mix with detergent or softener or it will deactivate the sanitizer...i just soak first with sanitizer then add detergent and start cycle..(I work in a lichen, pant bottoms get GROSS!)

    submitted bykatiep1200 - 8 years ago
  • A: Open the back sticker for recommended dosing. It says to add to the rinse cycle and let it soak for at least 20+ minutes (I have top loading old machine, I just reopen once it adds water for the rinse and add the sanitizer, leaving it open for 20 minutes, then close it to drain). Most washers should have a pause/delay feature that doesn't force an immediate drain, if it doesn't let you specify a longer period you may need to remain nearby to select it multiple times. Not all laundry needs this level of sanitizing, high water temps and high dryer setting for certain things like towels is fine. I only use on clothes that I've worn in public during this pandemic, before that it was only my work uniform.

    submitted byRAR - 6 years ago
  • A: There are instructions on the back. It's one of those labels that you have to peel the sticker and you'll see the instructions. Basically, pour 2 capfuls (line one) in the rinse cycle or pour it in the softener thingy. You have option to soak for 15 min. Also, if you have HE washer, i think it says pour 1 capful - not sure on that.

Q: Will this kill the bacteria that causes athletes foot and toe fungus? I have googled and can only see information about COVID on the bottle and website

Q: i dont have a place for an additive for rinse cycle. cant believe it. my lid locks. should i soak 15 min in washer before washing?

submitted by Grandma - 3 years ago
  • A: Yes, you can. I soak my clothes with it for probably over 16 minutes. After that I wash with detergent and also add it to the fabric softener component. Yours must be an older washing machine

    submitted byFoxychica4345 - 2 years ago
  • A: If you don't have a fabric softener compartment or a way to add the product directly to the rinse cycle, unfortunately you won't be able to use this product.

    submitted byLysol Team - 3 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: I know they make fabric softener balls that you can use to dispense fabric softener at the right time. In theory it could maybe work for this product too to dispense later in the washing cycle.

Q: I am concerned about chemical residue in my clothing since it releases during the rinse cycle. Will it work as well if I “pre-wash” my clothes with only Lysol sanitizer and then run regular wash cycle with only laundry detergent?

submitted by Laur - 5 years ago
  • A: It is advised to use this product in the rinse cycle or to place it in the fabric softener compartment of your machine. Always use the proper dosage instructions as indicated on the label, based on the size of the load prior to using this product. The product does wash off fabric during the cycle.

    submitted byLysol Team - 5 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: Actually, on the instructions it does say you can use it as a pre soak treatment for 16 minutes. After that you wash like you normally would. I pre soak and add it to the fabric softener slot too.

Q: How does this effect a septic system/etc? Will it kill the good bacteria too and effectually cause issues?

submitted by DD - 6 years ago
  • A: If you overuse this product or other sanitizing products that are going down your drain they could negatively affect the good bacteria need to treat your wastewater in your septic system.

Hold your nose

Is it actually sanitizing or just covering up with STRONG perfumes? I say the later of the two. I even use the extra rinse cycle and the scent is still to strong.

I am satisfied with the laundry sanitizer itself, but dislike EVERYTHING about the poorly designed bottle. Not only is it next to impossible to open, but a lot of the product ends up being wasted (unused) due to the shape of the bottle. Also, directions are hidden behind a label, which is extremely difficult to peel back. Not sure that I can recommend this product at this time.

Leaves laundry fresh, clean, and sanitized with a pleasant scen

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using Lysol Sanitizer crisp linen for my family’s laundry, and I’m really impressed. It’s easy to add to the rinse cycle and leaves clothes smelling fresh and clean without being overpowering. I love knowing it helps eliminate door causing bacteria, especially for towels,bedding, and activewear. The crips linen scent is pleasant and makes laundry feel extra fresh. The bottle is easy to store and use , and little goes a long way . Overall it’s a great addition to my laundry routine and gives me extra confidence that our clothes and linens are truly clean

Why Didn't I Try This Sooner?!

I really like this laundry sanitizer. It makes my clothes even fresher! Just a side note though, the directions say it needs to be in contact with your clothes for 16 minutes to properly sanitize. My rinse cycle doesn’t go that long, so I like to pause the rinse cycle for about 12 minutes to allow the clothes to sit in the product, then unpause and let the machine continue the rinse cycle for the 5 or so minutes that it does.
