Lysol Laundry Sanitizer Free & Clear

A: A gallon of water. How many capfuls do I need? It’s towels in a washing machine. More than a gallon of water. Apparently it requires the entire bottle of Lysol

A: Why not use peroxide instead it seems like such a hassle

A: Thank you for reaching out. This product is safe to use in the rinse cycle every wash. We hope this helps!

A: The instructions I read said to wash often based on how soiled items are or if in contact with ill person. Says once a week or so is good enough for daily items. Every wash is also ok.

A: I am so frustrated it is sold out everywhere! I use it for odors, my guess is everyone has decided it will help with Covid-19, they are wrong.

A: I add it in addition to the regular laundry soap.

A: Lysol Laundry Sanitizer should be used in conjunction with laundry detergent. Wash cycle additives such as stain remover can also be used. Lysol Laundry Sanitizer is formulated to be used in the rinse cycle without additional additives, such as fabric softener. Lysol Laundry Sanitizer provides a limited softening effect.

A: That is the wrong way, you are wasting money. It is only effective in the rinse cycle and must be in the rinse cycle for 16 minutes. Those are the detailed directions.

A: Thank you for reaching out. This product is formulated to be add to rinse cycle and leave product in rinse cycle for 16 minutes.

A: Based on what I read (I haven't used this product yet) you can do the first option you mentioned or put it in the fabric softener compartment. You can also add it in to soak for 16 min before washing.

A: It is best to follow the usage instructions for the best results. Allow for clothes to be washed by your detergent first, then add Lysol Laundry Sanitizer directly to the rinse cycle. You can let it soak for 15 minutes.

A: Please someone explain why it must be in the rinse cycle? What is the science behind this? Same could be accomplished by method described above--just soak over 16 minutes alone before or after rinse
