Stop Germs from Spreading! How To Stop the Stomach Bug, the Flu and other School Germs from Spreading through YOUR house and to YOU. Hand washing is NOT enough!

Hydrogen peroxide is a fantastic cleaner and disinfectant for household use. It has the ability to quickly kill bacteria. After being used for cleaning and coming into contact with light and air, peroxide will decompose turning into simple water and oxygen. It leaves no harmful or toxic residue behind as do most disinfectants.

An important thing to remember is that hydrogen peroxide breaks down in light. That’s why it comes in the brown bottle. When you make cleaners with it, use only opaque bottles or the brown one it comes in, not clear bottles. Do not sit it on a window sill or in the sun.

Here’s some easy ways to start using this miracle cleaner in your home.

tip: I use this healthcare grade hydrogen peroxide for disinfecting surfaces and around the house – sure helps to keep those cooties and stomach bugs FAR away!

This even kills the dreaded NoroVirus stomach bug – which VERY FEW cleaners truly do.

Why Not Use Bleach?

Many people (myself included) have wondered why not use bleach to sanitize and disinfect their home surfaces…

Let me ask you a question…

Have you EVER smelled BLEACH in a doctor’s office?

Of course not!

Bleach is chlorine – and the fumes stink (and aren’t good for you).

I found this gem of a post on Facebook that details out WHY you should use hydrogen peroxide instead of bleach plus a long list of valuable ways to use hydrogen peroxide to clean and for health uses.

Totally worth the read!

Why use Hydrogen Peroxide instead of bleach…

Ways To Use Hydrogen Peroxide For Cleaning & Sanitizing

note: we are using regular drug store variety 3% hydrogen peroxide in all these formulas.

Anti-Bacterial Spray

Empty a bottle of 3% hydrogen peroxide into an unused opaque spray bottle or attach a sprayer to the peroxide bottle. Use the spray straight and undiluted as an anti-bacterial spray for counters in bath and kitchen, door knobs, light switches, toilet seats, etc. Just spray a mist of the solution on the area to be cleaned and wipe with a paper towel or cloth.

Glass and Window Cleaner

Mix 2-1/2 cups of hydrogen peroxide into 1 gallon of tap water. Add 2 or 3 teaspoons of your favorite dish soap and mix. Pour, as needed, into a spray bottle. Spray and wipe.

Countertop Cleaning

Fill a spray bottle with a 50/50 solution of water and hydrogen peroxide. Use as a spray and wipe cleaner.

Disinfect Cutting Boards

Prepare 2 bottles of cleaner, one with hydrogen peroxide and the other with white vinegar. Spray the vinegar over areas to disinfect. Follow with a spray and wipe of hydrogen peroxide. After washing cutting boards with hot soapy water, spray with hydrogen peroxide to disinfect. Simply spray and let dry.

Clean Dish Cloths and Sponges

Soak or heavily spray a dishcloth or sponge in hydrogen peroxide to clean and disinfect.

Sanitize Plastic Water Bottles

Clean, sanitize and remove odors from water bottles with half water and half hydrogen peroxide. Fill and let sit for a few hours, then rinse.

Clean Refrigerator

Undiluted peroxide is a great spray and wipe for refrigerators.

Clean Fruits and Vegetables

Spray with hydrogen peroxide and rinse to remove germs, insecticides and pesticides. Remove wax from the outside of fruits and vegetables by soaking in a sink of cold water and about ½ cup of peroxide. Soak about 15 minutes and then rinse and dry.

Clean the Microwave

Clean the inside of the microwave by squirting with hydrogen peroxide and wiping.

NOTE: You may want to wear rubber gloves when using peroxide because it can turn the skin on fingertips white. If so, simply wash and dry and apply lotion.

How To REALLY Kill Germs

…and keep germs from spreading through your family, your house…and your LIFE!

I think it’s safe to assume that we ALL know that washing our hands is the #1 way to prevent illness and picking up NASTY stomach bugs and cooties, right?

BUT Did You Know…

What you wash your hands WITH can make a HUGE difference.

Smart Moms KNOW how to keep germs from spreading and avoid getting the stomach Flu.  The secret? Hydrogen Peroxide is the BEST way to kill germs (like the nasty FLU germs) – there are some hydrogen peroxide cleaners that even kill the worst stomach bug germs, like the NoroVirus and the dreaded roto-virus!  Here's how to use it...

My Secret For Preventing The Flu

There are 2 simple parts to my “secret” for keeping flu germs from spreading in my house – and usually preventing the Flu and stomach viruses all-together.

1. Soap MATTERS!

We started using this hospital-grade soap in our house – and wow, what a difference it has made!

The kids wash their hands with it BEFORE school (it helps protect you for HOURS after using it) and again AFTER school to kill whatever germs they brought home.

I use it whenever I wash my hands but especially BEFORE going out shopping or any other public area.

Why?

Because this special soap not only kills germs, it also PROTECTS you from the germs on the things you touch.

I even carry these small bottles with me on vacation.

[content-egg module=Amazon template=grid next=3]

We don’t use it full-strength (unless there is something REALLY nasty in direct proximity…lol!).

I mix it 50/50 with water and put it in these foaming soap dispensers – and I have my “Magic Soap” Dispensers near EVERY sink in our home.


2. What You Clean WITH Matters

Get this hospital grade cleaner – it kills EVERYTHING!

I know all those house cleaner commercials and Lysol advertisements claim to kill the REALLY nasty germs, but they really don’t.

One spring, a rotovirus stomach bug (the WORST one) was brought into our house by a 3-year-old that was sick a WEEK before. What people don’t know is that while you may not still have symptoms of a virus, you can be contagious for long afterwards.

If you think about kids – well, they touch parts of their body where the germs end up finally leaving the body (ie, their bottom) – and then they touch EVERYTHING.

That’s how the worst viruses get spread – and most grocery store cleaners do NOT kill those really horible, nasty germs.

This cleaner DOES kill them.

If you’re worried about germs coming into your house, use it. If you have someone sick in your house, USE IT OFTEN. Spray it on everything people touch.

Trust me – this cleaner plus this special hand soap changes everything.



My House Was a MESS!
And my anxiety was through the roof!

I needed a plan to get it together - it was all pushing me over the edge.

Thing is - we LIVE here... I never had the fantasy that my home would ever look "Pinterest perfect".

I simply wanted more control, less clutter and much less anxiety.

I finally found something that worked for ME.
  • My house is now easier to clean - I can now clean it in minutes, instead of hours.
  • I can now actually FIND the things I'm looking for.
  • I learned some simple decluttering systems that make me much more efficient every day - and I'm more relaxed and less overwhelmed all the time (finally)
  • My house now looks pretty darn good almost all the time.
  • Best of all - I no longer stress about guests unexpectedly showing up.
Turns out, it was so much easier to do than I ever expected.

This is how I did it.
