To make your wipes, you first need to gather the right ingredients. If you plan to make disposable wipes, here’s what you need:
If you want to make reusable wipes, here’s what you need:
Before you start to mix your ingredients, make sure the bleach you’re using hasn’t passed its expiration date. Also, remember that you need to be very careful when handling bleach, as it’s a powerful product that could harm you if used incorrectly.
In addition to wearing gloves, avoid rubbing your nose and eyes when handling bleach. Also, keep in mind that bleach can stain clothes, so we suggest wearing an old apron or T-shirt when doing this project.
Once you’ve gathered all of your ingredients, it’s time to make the disinfectant wipes. Here’s what you need to do:
After doing this, it’s time to use your disinfectant wipes. After wiping down a surface, wait at least five minutes before touching it, as this will give the solution enough time to kill any lingering viruses.
If you’re using the wipes to clean something that will come in close contact with someone else (i.e., a toy or kitchen utensil), rinse the item off in warm water five minutes after disinfecting it.
If you’re using disposable wipes, you can throw them in the trash immediately after using them. Reusable wipes can be stored in an airtight container.
Also, if you don’t have any bleach in your home, you can use alcohol as a disinfectant. You can follow the same steps using 70% rubbing alcohol or 140-proof alcohol. If you want, you can also add a pinch of freshly squeezed lemon to your solution for a better scent.
