Using Chlorine and Bleach Responsibly to Kill COVID and Create a Safe Environment

Chlorine and substances containing chlorine, such as household bleach, can destabilize the environment necessary for viruses like the new corona virus to survive. A strongly alkaline substance, chlorine is ideal for de-contaminating various surfaces that may have been touched by infected individuals. Essentially, your bleach can disinfect just about any surface and kill any germs present, including COVID and other viruses, as well as various bacteria. 

If you’re using chlorine-based products in a pool, it’s good to know that it can also neutralize the virus in your pool water, along with many other types of germs. However, it’s also essential to be careful with the amounts of chlorine used for pool water, as the water’s pH has to be properly maintained to ensure that COVID-19 can be eradicated and that the pool can then safely be used by people.

When you’re mixing bleach with other substances to obtain a more potent or fragrant cleaning agent, it’s also essential to know that you should never mix it up with products containing ammonia and vinegar. These substances, combined with bleach, can generate toxic gases into the air that can make it hard to breathe and even cause certain health issues that you really don’t want to deal with.
