I really wish you had more views, what you do is not only interesting, it’s useful. I really appreciate the time and resources you use to educate us. And since I’m a housekeeper, these are perfect for me choosing the right products. Thank you!

[@FieldOfFocus]

I appreciate your kind words. I do hope I can get more views! Hopefully youtube will continue to put me in front of viewers! I am glad you are here!!

[@carmenmegna9171]

Agreed. I just found your channel. I’m a house cleaner and I love to know what products my customers are working or not! Could you do other types of Lysol. Like sprays and concentrates and some seventh generation products? I’d also love to know how you incubate your test plates. Thanks!

[@FieldOfFocus]

I will add more lysol prodcuts to my viewer suggestion list! I have tested a few 7th generation products but am happy to test some more! I incubate my petri dishes in a small incubator.

I think you could add comparison videos to the type of content you do. Compare this and the Lysol in the same video. I think that will get you more views and engagement

[@danieljalomojr5856]

Thanks for doing a vid on these laundry sanitizers. I bought the Lysol laundry sanitizer as I have not seen the Clorox brand one in my area. I have the same issue as you w/ the washing machine, unable to pause the cycle and allow it to soak for the recommended 16 minutes. When I tried to pause my machine cycle, it paused for only about ten minutes then the machine automatically cancelled the cycle and drained the water w/ out going thru the spin cycle. I had to wring everything out by hand before placing in the dryer. I also have an he machine. I hate it. Anyway, I was glad to see that it still sanitized the laundry w/ out the added soaking time.

[@FieldOfFocus]

Yes I really felt like testing it that way made sense for lots of people.

[@pandoravictoria9541]

Hi, your videos have helped me so much before I was cleaning my house with vinegar or rubbing alcohol but without cleaning with soap and water first you opened my eyes that both needs to be done. I enjoyed your video on 91% alcohol but would love to see how much bacteria 70% Alcohol kills as I have read its a better option for disinfecting. Thanks 😊😊❤❤

[@FieldOfFocus]

Glad my videos are helpful! I have 70% alcohol on my list! Thank you for watching and commenting!

[@kamalcampbell2254]

She even tests with no harsh chemicals. Like ammonia and parabens.

[@katrinat.3032]

Suggestion: have you done a cutting board video? So many chefs say to use a bleach solution but I have never done it. I want to go back to the 70’s with my glass cutting board, that way I just put it in the dishwasher

I have not! But was just chatting a few weeks ago to my patreons about a cutting board video!

I love watching your videos! I recently had to change up my toilet bowl cleaner for my housekeeping business. Sometimes, it's hard to buy in bulk because of pricing and availability. I normally use the Zep Acidic toilet bowl cleaner because it works great. But lately it has been harder to find in the gallon jugs. I switched to ECOLAB's toilet bowl cleaner. And it seems to work okay. It isn't as thick as the Zep. I would love it if you could test it. ECOLAB makes a whole line up of products, as I said, I love Zep and Odorban they are what I use mostly. Have a great day. As for the sanitizers, some Casteel soap or borax are my go-to for laundry. We do use the Clorox sanitizer it seems to work well. After seeing this test I'm confident it works better than the Lysol and is more price appealing.

[@FieldOfFocus]

I have had my eye on Ecolab products for a while...so they are on my list! Thank you for the kind words and I appreciate your support!

[@litlbruce]

Great video.

[@FieldOfFocus]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!

[@pandoravictoria9541]

I would love to see videos of non toxic ways to kill germs. I am moving away from laundry soaps and rinse aids that have perfume or any types of fragrance. I also would love to see if spraying straight vinegar on fabrics sofa, curtains, throw pillows ect because that's what I have been doing not sure if it works. If my little one has been sick woth strep I use alcohol in a spray bottle on the soft surfaces but that smells toxic so I try to stick to white vinegar would love of you could test that too thank you so much. I would be very grateful. Hope you and your loved ones are great. Take care.

[@tba1879]

Vinegar (5% acetic acid) is a weak germ killer and possibly can only be effective on certain forms of bacteria(like tuberculosis) and seems to work only on hard surfaces--it also needs to sit on the surface for at least 30 minutes to be effective. Maybe the 20- or 30% variety would be more effective but this could also be too irritating to the skin.

[@pandoravictoria9541]

Thanks I have herd that and then herd it does disinfect thats why I would love to see it tested. Also herd it kills ecolli and that is a win to me being that we are washing undergarments.

[@tba1879]

@@pandoravictoria9541 From what I've read it only partially disinfects and then only on hard surfaces if left for 30 minutes. Vinegar would be useless i a washer because it attenuated by all that water. I'm afraid that you'll have to stick to bleach!

Hi, I am new here but have been watching all your videos they are fantastic and very helpful. I would love to see how well white vinegar kills bacteria in laundry because I have been looking for a non toxic way to remove bacteria from laundry. I have been using vinegar in my fabric softener dispenser but not sure that is enough to kill germs as ots only about 3.oz when I remember I run down and put 1/2 cup to 1 cup in the rinse cycle but time gets away from me and I don't always do so. I would love to see both methods how well it kills or doesn't kill bacteria. New subscriber here love your content.

Im very curious but im also being cautious to add it.Since i exposed myself to about 20-50 wipes a day of 65% alcohol wipes for about 3 years straight.
