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 these bacteria can survive a wash cycle and can cause potential infection risk with pathogenic bacteria. When it comes to certain laundry loads such as children's clothes or sportswear, you want your detergent to eliminate bacteria that can 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 left behind. Simply add Lysol Laundry Sanitizer to your rinse cycle. It does not contain any 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 - 7 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 - 7 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.

    submitted byBK - 7 years ago
  • A: This product is perfect for people who purchase clothing at thrift shops, yard sales, second-hand stores, etc.

    submitted bySoupyjune - 7 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 - 4 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.

    submitted byLisaBee - 6 years ago
  • A: If you go to the details under this product on the Target website and hit see more. All the full directions on how to use and more are there.

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 - 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 - 5 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 - 7 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.

    submitted bydmae712 - 8 years ago
  • A: This is my second bottle and I add a capful into the wash with detergent.

    submitted byKimmeeT - 8 years ago
  • A: Rinse cyle go to lysol for instruction.

    submitted byMOM0307 - 8 years ago

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

submitted by Alib - 1 year ago
  • A: You might try Hibiclens for your feet. Also, original Listerine. Not in the laundry but for your feet.

    submitted byKelly - 11 months ago
  • A: Thanks for reaching out! Our Lysol Laundry Sanitizer - Crisp linen can effectively kill Trichophyton interdigitale, Candida albicans, and Candida parapsilosis. We hope that this information helps! Sincerely, Your Lysol Team.

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 - 2 years ago
  • 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.

    submitted byJill - 9 months 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 - 2 years ago
    Brand expert
  • 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 - 1 year ago

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 - 4 years ago
  • 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.

    submitted byFoxychica4345 - 1 year 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.

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

submitted by DD - 5 years ago
  • A: When used as directed on the product label, Lysol Laundry Sanitizer is appropriate for use with septic systems.

    submitted byRB Product Expert - 5 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.

Q: I have a puppy in the hospital with Parvo. I have to sanitize everything she came into contact with. Will this help?

submitted by LC - 6 years ago
  • A: Lysol® Laundry Sanitizer kills 99.9% of bacteria like Staphylococcus Aureus & Klebsiella pneumoniae. Lysol® products have not been proven effective against Parvovirus.

    submitted byRB Product Expert - 6 years ago
    Brand expert
  • A: You should consult with a reputable vet about how to best kill Parvo. From experience I can tell you that it's not easy to kill & bleach is usually involved. As this product does not contain bleach I'm doubtful it would be effective. You can always call the number on the bottle to be 100% sure.

    submitted bySparkleGirl - 6 years ago

Q: So since you have to add it to the rinse cycle and have to put it in the fabric softener compartment is it OK to mix it with the fabric softener?

submitted by Kim - 7 years ago
  • A: Yes that's fine.......

    submitted byMM - 7 years ago
  • A: No, you should not mix it. Skip fabric softener when using Lysol Crisp Linen Scented Laundry Sanitizer.

    submitted byvavo - 7 years ago

Q: How smelly is it? I prefer unscented...

submitted by collibeth - 8 years ago
  • A: It's not the worse smell but trust me your clothes will come out smelling fresh and clean. Someone said to add it to the rinse cycle or Fabric softner cycle but I use mine with detergent and detergent booster .

    submitted byKimmeeT - 8 years ago
  • A: They now make an unscented variety. This isn't it.

I initially purchased Lysol Laundry Sanitizer during the COVID 19 Pandemic when I was looking to clean everything as much as possible. I have stuck with it because the product adds a fresh smell to my laundry (including my teenager's sweaty sports gear), kills bacteria and is quick and easy to use. Just add to the fabric softener section of your washer and go! I sometimes use it when soaking clothes as well.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As a household that works in the medical and dental field, this laundry sanitizer is a no brainer! The scent is very mild and clean, and it doesn't leave a residue or anything on your clothes. Honestly it might be in my head, but I feel like our clothes just feel cleaner using this! I use this for more than our clothes though. It gets used for towels, bedding, and our dog blankets. I have no issues using in my Samsung washer either. Can't say enough good things about this sanitizer! @influenster #complimentary @lysol #Lysol

Patty KK Cakes - 21 days ago
LIKE: My socks used to smell so horrible after taking off my shoes. I ran my shoes through the washing machine a couple times with just Tide laundry detergent hoping that it’ll get ride of the odor in my shoes. However, washing with just detergent didn’t work! After washing my shoes and socks with Lysol Laundry Sanitizer, the horrible smell never came back! This works very well. But you MUST PUT THE SANITIZER IN THE FABRIC SOFTENER COMPARTMENT / DISPENSER so that it’ll sanitize on the final wash. DISLIKE: I live in a small studio apartment, so this scent is kind of too strong for my apartment. It has a chemically smell. I have yet to try the other two scents.
