passed my exam today. feels so good to say after seeing all the other comments of people passing it too but now i can say it too! i failed my first time and studied for months (writing over 500 notecards trying to memorize every little thing) but my last week of studying i ditched them binge watched his videos and took notes and i think it helped me more then all those notecards. not everything he goes over will be on the test but listening to him will help you because somethings are just related GOOD LUCK 💗

[@BostonCareerInstitute]

Thank you for reaching out. Though my specialty is not in disinfection of homes, I can tell you not to mix anything with bleach except water. Bleach is very tricky and make cause a chemical reaction with negative outcomes for your health. Second, alcohol is pretty useless as a disinfectant and may ruin your furniture and has pretty harmful fumes for people with asthma and COPD. There are excellent disinfectants out there on the market especially at the Restaurant Depot. They are identical to hospital grade disinfectants and are half the price at about $25 per gallon and dilutes 18/1 . I suggest you look there.
