You’re a genius! I’m so happy you went the extra step to do the rinse cycle test and not use the 16 minute time. Bravo! 😁
I am glad I did that too. It just seemed so unreasonable to pause my washing machine! Thanks for watching!
Yes I love that she done it this way too cause it's how I use it most days
I would be interested to know if it would fair as well in the rinse cycle if you ran the load with detergent in the wash as many detergents supposedly neutralize the sanitizing properties of the Lysol, and their would likely be a fair bit of detergent left in the load when the rinse cycle runs
See I don’t have a washer , I share a washer in my apartments. So I don’t have time to presoak. Thanks to this I’ll stick to just adding in my fabric softener slot. Thanks you ! Your amazing for doing this
You are welcome!! I am so glad you found this video helpful! Thanks for watching!
Ugh, I hear you. My cousin is going through the same thing. He said enough already! This is enough to have him house-hunting right now. Apart from the machines being a rip-off in his building, he cannot pause the wash cycles, a true luxury when you have your own w/d set in your home.
I've been using Oxiclean Sanitizer since you tested it and I finally got some peace of mind thanks to you. After watching the Lysol Laundry results, I think I prefer Oxiclean. Thank you so much for your videos! I love your channel.
It is good to have options!!!!! Thank you so much for watching!
Wow! I hope Lysol is paying your a huge fee -- for real-world testing their products. Absolutely superb video! Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! I was suprised there was any bacteria after heated drying!
Unfortunately no. I make a little from RUclips but not much. Hoping someday it will change. I really enjoy testing products and sharing results!
Super Interesting. Thanks for the effort of doing that second step!!
I am glad I did that too. It just seemed so unreasonable to pause my washing machine! Thanks for watching!
Whoa! The toilet rim results surprised me. Thank you for commenting on the scents of the cleaning products ... 👍 Strong scents have kept me from purchasing some cleaning products again.
Yes! Toilet rim... argh always a good one!! Some strong scents are just too much for me too! thanks for watching!
This is the exact video I was hoping you made. Thanks!
You are welcome! I am glad you found it useful! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you SO MUCH for this video! I've been using this product in my fabric softener dispenser without the extended rinse cycle, just as you tested in the extra step, and I am SUPER pumped to know it really does work as advertised!
You are very welcome! I am glad this video helped you!
I just found your channel and i love it. This video just gave me a peace of mind because i use that exact brand of sanitizer!!
I am glad you found this helpful!!!
Maybe I missed it but I feel like a very important control step would be the bacteria test without any Lysol, just a regular wash with your standard detergent, to see if that alone disinfects and if the Lysol is even necessary
Yes, I did a previous test with just detergent. You can see that here: Is It Enough?? Laundry w/ Tide Pods & Drying Cloths To Remove Bacteria?? I Tested w/ Petri Dishes! ruclips.net/video/gPSyRFN3-Zo/видео.html
I have similarities to "Monk" 😅, so you have a new subie. This was so helpful, thank you!
I am glad you find my videos helpful!!!! Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for this! I bought this before, but I wasn’t sure if it worked. When you read the instructions I thought “oh, I’m never doing that.” So I appreciate that you tested it for lazy laundry people who want to set it and forget it. Instant like & subscribe!
Exactly! Who is going to be pausing their machine during the rinse cycle? No one. Thank you for watching and for your support!
I would love to see a sample of JUST detergent and no sanitzer to see if that removes bacteria just as well or if this product really does make a big difference. Thank you!!
Yes I did that here: Is It Enough?? Laundry w/ Tide Pods & Drying Cloths To Remove Bacteria?? I Tested w/ Petri Dishes! ruclips.net/video/gPSyRFN3-Zo/видео.html
Thanks for testing this!
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
This is fascinating. What about a comparison between using this vs just washing with detergent? I enjoyed seeing the results, but it doesn’t seem very meaningful without the comparison to a regular wash.
For anyone else having the same question, I found this video that the poster shared in a response to another comment: ruclips.net/video/gPSyRFN3-Zo/видео.htmlsi=IeUjiYCw5k2AFtgr
Glad you found the tide pod video! I hope that answered your questions!
thank you SO MUCH for doing the /no detergent/regular rinse cycle/ experiment. that was what im most curious about!! now i can comfortably just run my machine without worrying about pausing it! we have a 2-in1 washer that washes and dries your clothes in 1 machine so i don't think i have to worry about my clothes getting bacteria from the dryer. again thank you so much for this video/experiment! YOU are a godsend!
You are very welcome! I am so happy you are enjoying my content!! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Wooohoooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
THANK YOU SO MUCH I LOVE YOUR CHANNEL AND SEND IT TO MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS!!!!!
ooh thank you so much for your support, I truly appreciate it!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Super helpful. Thanks for testing both usage options. Very encouraging results even with standard rinse.
You are welcome! I usually try to stick with exact manufacturers guidelines but this one really seemed like it needed a more realistic test. Thanks for watching!
Hello! I happened upon your channel and enjoyed your experiment. I have been on the fence about purchasing the Lysol Laundry Sanitizer; but I am convinced now and will add it to my shopping list. Thank you for sharing this info! ❤️
I am so glad my video was able to help you!!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Thank you for this video. Very good info to have. I love the color of your walls by the way.
Thank you so much! Choosing paint colors was hard, but I think we did a great job!
Awesome! Thank you so much! I feel better using this now. I appreciate you!
You are very welcome! I feel better about using it as well! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thank you so much for doing this!
You are welcome! Thank you for watching and commenting!
Thank you so much for doing these tests!! The results are amaaaazing, I’m definitely gonna start using this product on a regular basis 😁
I am so happy with the results! So nice to see a product work so well! Thanks for watching!
good video this is exactly what i was searching for
Thank you for watching!!
Thank you for doing all this work for us, especially your re-testing with using fabric softener only. I agree with you about the inconvenience of pause while rinsing and would rather let the automatic cycle take over. The results were astounding! Your report is very much appreciated.
You are very welcome! It just made sense that most people would rather put it in the fabric softener slot instead of interrupting the rinse cycle! Thanks you for watching and commenting!
I used this during nursing school and when I worked in the ED. I realized I wasn’t even using it properly whoops. I simply added it to the softener cycle or the bleach dispenser and hit start before I hopped in the shower.
Before I started product testing, I didn't always read the labels either.. so good to start now! Thanks for watching!
Thrilled to see it actually does work! Thank you for taking the time to test it in the fabric softener dispenser. As much as I use it, I can't imagine having to use it as a presoak every time.
You are welcome! I agree, using it as a presoak wouldn't work for me either. Thanks for watching!
Thank you so much for your wonderful content!
I appreciate your support and kind words!
Thank you for this video!!so helpful !!
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Great info! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I love this stuff. They do have an unscented version. I love your channel. You know, i grew up using 409 as the all purpose cleaner in our home. I’d love to see this tested.
I grew up with my mom using 409 and Fantastik! I should buy some and test it out.. on the viewer suggestion list it goes!
@@FieldOfFocus Yay!!!! Thanks you!
I was happy to see the fragrance-free version at my local Target. Some stores only carry the fragranced one.
Very helpful, especially forgoing the 16 minute directions since most of us are in the same boat. Awesome to see how the pre soak and washer machine methods differ. Thank you!
Thank you. I just had to test it without that wait time, I know when I use it in my home, I am not setting a timer. Thanks for watching!
That's also a good reason to clean and disifect washer and dryers and better to hang cloths to dry instead of using dryer
Yes I do have videos on cleaning the washer machine and drying in the sun! Thanks for watching and commenting!
AWESOME video! Appreciate it
Thank you so much!
I use this product on my work clothes because I’m a house cleaner and I get all kinds of nastiness on me. I bet this is also great for those in the medical field! Great video!
YES! Good point! Glad to hear you use it!!!
This was great! First time watching. Thanks👍 since Covid when I first noticed this product I doubted it but you debunked it for me
I am very impressed with it! Thank you for watching !
wow this was really cool! i may need this product
It is great to see how well it works! Thanks for watching!
I LOVE the Lysol laundry disinfectant! I use it ALL the time! It does come in unscented too.
I added it to my laundry routine after my nose test on laundry was a passing grade. I swear my nose can smell bacteria 😅
Great to hear you use it and like it!
Thank you! I have always wondered how well Lysol actually worked!
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
I LOVE these videos! This is so informational and is creating more conscious consumers! We need more of this! I wish you continued success in your YT channel growth :)
Video suggestion to add to your list - I would love to see if Borax would decrease the bacteria in laundry (probably already suggested)
Thank you so much for your kind words!!! I have not texted Borax and will make sure borax in the laundry is on my viewer suggestion list! Thank you!!!
I wash all our backpacks after our flight. I was unsure if washing with Lysol really disinfects my clothes and im happy to see the results of your experiment worked. But i wash mine with gentle cycle with cold water. I hope it still disinfects😬
Good idea!!! I will have to test it in cold water.. good idea!!! Thanks!
Thank you for speaking my language.
I am glad you enjoyed my video! Thank you for watching!
THANK YOU FOR USING THE SCIENTIFIC METHOD! ❤
I’ve been using this lately in my basic laundry machine that doesn’t have a softener dispenser. I wait until the drum is about half filled during the rinse cycle and let it do its rinse thing.
I’ve been considering pausing during the rinse cycle for the 16min instead of just running normally.
You are very welcome! I enjoy testing all sorts of products and sharing my results! Maybe time and see how long your rinse cycle is first, maybe it will be close.. but I think the 16 min is good especially for very soiled or contaminated laundry. Thank you for watching and commenting!
I realized I never read the instructions and just tossed it in the washing machine with the laundry soap. Thank you for the video.
AH! I know!!! Before making these videos I never paid much attention to the instructions 😬 but now I am trying to so that I test them with their intended use! Thank you for supporting me, always nice to see you in the comments!
If you haven't already, can you do one where you check clorox laundry sanitizer and then one where boiling the cloths?
Clorox laundry sanitizer is on my list!! and I will add boiling cloths to my list! Great suggestions! Thanks for watching!
For the price I’ll stick with Odoban the results were comparable and Odoban is cheaper. Thanks for the video.
Thanks for watching!
Love your video!! 🙂 you got a new sub ☺️
Thank you so very much!! I appreciate your support!
Thank you! ❤🔥
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
Fantastic! Thank you for this video. I think it will help with my search for a product to eliminate the musty odor of my clothes.
You are welcome! Give it try! I hope it works for you!
@@FieldOfFocus I did give it a try last night. It seems to have worked to finally get rid of the musty odor of my clothes. I do find the scent to be particularly strong though and I will seek out the free and clear version soon. Thank you.
Thank you
Thank you for watching!
I LOVE ODOBAN, it’s so much more for a good price, you should review that next, great video 👍.
Hello! I have tested Odoban Spray.. I do want to test more odoban products!! Thanks for watching and commenting!

All I will add is this does a really good job of making my towels smell fresh when washing alone does not.
Yes! Great point! Thanks for watching!!!
Thanks
You are welcome! 😊
I used to recommend this to my customers for washer odor. Or bleach. Washers are disgusting. I can tell a customer that washes whites with bleach as soon as I open the door of the machine lol. It’s amazing to me how few people use bleach.
We use bleach sparingly since we have a septic system, so I can understand those who don't use it Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@FieldOfFocusoh yeah I forgot about that I live in town !
I would love to see this bacteria grown test done on truck stop towels! Seriously!
👀 I can’t imagine!!!
Thank you❤❤
You are welcome! Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU!!! This is exactly what I needed to see... as I wish to use the tested product, in my front loading washing machine, poured into the "fabric softener" pocket. I have mowed high grass in a place where, occasionally, dogs have pooped... Capiche? ;)
I totally get it!!!!!! Glad this video helped!
I will use this product probably on my active clothing 😮
YES! I use it on bath towels and very sweaty clothing! Thanks for watching!
Oh crap!! I’ve been using it in my fabric softener dispenser and use Gain pods in my top load machine😅😅😅 Thank you for this!!
So did you watch the second half of the video where I tested it in the Fabric softener dispenser???
@@FieldOfFocus I did! I watched the whole thing, but I didn’t know the directions say not to use detergent at the same time😅 (I still do)
I do too. I use detergent in the wash and this in the rinse in the fabric dispenser!
I have used Lysol sanitizer for many years beginning when it was powder. I worked as a nurse for many years and all of my work clothes were always washed with this and it keeps germs at bay.
Glad to hear you have been using it!! It is a great product!
I nearly bought this recently because it was on sale, yet when I read the directions it was a hard no for me. The first step was to wear gloves, then you had to use two lids full and the lid is not small, on top of that it was not for those who are sensitive and the label stated that you should ask your doctor before using. I am not comfortable washing my clothing with something that I have to wear gloves and other protective gear when handling, and on top of that I can not ensure that I can properly rinse it out of my clothing.
When I was originally going to comment here I started to second guess myself as to what I read, as the instructions you were giving were different, and it seemed that everywhere I looked had similar instructions, but I finally found a current label that proven that my memory was indeed correct. I guess they have a pending lawsuit, and/or they realized that they needed to cover their back-ends better, so they updated the instructions. Reading the labels more closely I find that the Lysol Laundry sanitizer is even more scary. It is not even meant for extended use at all.
hmmm interesting.. My bottle does not have that at all on it. No where on my bottle does it say to wear gloves ... interesting. I wonder why yours says it and mine does not. This is very interesting to me. Thanks for bringing it to my attention. I would have worn gloves if that was step 1.
I just pour some in my fabric softener dispenser with each wash.......thats it. Works great.
I like your music choice
THANK YOU! I have a hard time picking music! 😬
Hold Up! Hot water, as in the Towel Cycle, and a strong detergent, reduce bacteria. I would have liked to see the test done on a Cold Water no detergent cycle to test the effectiveness of this Quant type product.

I will be conducting more with cold water in the future! Thanks for watching!
So scientific im here for it ❤❤❤❤❤
I am glad you are enjoying my videos! Thank you for watching and commenting!
You are a life saver. Not many people on youtube do what you do. A lot of these products make me curious if they actually work. I've already suggested this before but Pine Glo from dollar tree/dollar general dollar isle would be a good product to test. I doubt it works all that well but I'm still curious if it kills 99 percent of germs. It's a dollar at dollar general. A dollar 25 at dollar tree. Another would be homebright disenfectant spray. Yes its aerosol but i I wonder if it still would be a good product to compare to lysol disenfectant spray
Thank you so much for your kind words. Yes Pine Glo is on my list and I will add homebright disinfectant spray. I do have about 500 viewer suggestions so getting through them the best I can! Thank you for your support!
Do pine Sol please, I use it for my laundry, walls, carpet, cleaning in general
Pine sol was one of my first videos.. I might have to revisit it! Does Pinesol Clean & Disinfect Various Areas in My Home?? ruclips.net/video/i2GBQmMEArc/видео.html
I'm also curious about pinesol if used similar to the bucket soaking method here! @@FieldOfFocus
This is phenomenally useful, and very thoughtful to test both modes of use and noting your machine's rinse time. Just need to wipe down your drier drum with bleach next time!
Thanks for watching and glad you enjoyed the video!
I pour 1 capful in the soap compartment and another one for the rinse cycle
So for my tests I do my best to follow the directions, so just rinse cycle for me! Thanks for watching!
Hey, just ended up watching your video about Lysol sanitizer loved it. Thank you for your thoughts and opinion I was wondering if you had any idea about Purcell laundry detergent love to hear your thoughts opinion about that
Hello! I haven't tested Purcell Laundry detergent but I will add it to my suggestion list! Thanks for watching and commenting!
Can you see if vinegar will disinfect laundry?
I will be testing that soon! Thanks for watching!
Please do this with bleach in laundry. I'm curious how clean my cleaning clothes are after washing them in bleach😊
I do have bleach on my viewer suggestion list. Thank you so much for watching and commenting!
Just subscribed love the channel ! Quick question. When you wash the towels is it in hot or cold water ? I know the presoak for the disinfectant was but not sure about the washing machine cycle . Would love to know . I try to avoid washing my clothes in hot or warm water if possible . Many thanks !
I use the "towel setting" on my machine for simplicity. It is warm water. Thank you for subscribing and supporting!! I do hope to do more tests with cold water!
I have an HE top load washer, so I use tide pods in the tub with wash beads and put lysol sanitizer in the detergent spot. Should I be putting the lysol sanitizer in the softner spot instead? This channel is awesome!!!
Yes put the lysol sanitizer in the softner spot and make sure it does a deep rinse if you have that option! Thanks for watching!
Please, please, try the Clorox laundry sanitizer too. I'd like to see if the results are the same/ better/ worse by comparison given they have nearly identical active ingredients. Thank you 🙏
I will have to add that to my list! I just love testing these products! Thanks for watching!
I was going to request for you to do this one but you beat me to it and I am glad it works well most of the time I just put it with the laundry detergent in the beginning of the was has more time in soak no way it can't work like that but thank you for the review
You are welcome! Thank you for watching!
Would love to see odoban in the laundry. I do Brazilian jiu jitsu and our Gi's (uniforms) are often soaked in sweat from grappling. Would love to see the best laundry sanitizer to prevent ringworm, mrsa, and general smelliness.
That is an interesting test.. I will add that to my list! Thanks for watching and commenting!
I'm curious to see how Downy Rinse & Refresh does because I use either that or this Lysol Sanitizer in my fabric softener dispenser. Thx!
I will add that to my viewer suggestion list! Always interesting to see how well various products work!! Thanks for watching and commenting!
This was so helpful. But could you do this test again with cold water? I have a lot of clothes I can’t wash with warm water that I want to remove bacteria from and I want to know if this stuff actually works in cold water
That is a good idea. I will add that to the viewer suggestion list. I often use cold water for most of my laundry too. Thanks for the suggestion!
Hi thank you for making all these videos! I have a question, did you also disinfect the inside of dryer? Or does the heat do the job already?
Hi there! Once in a while I wipe down the inside of my dryer but not often at all! If during my testing I keep seeing after the dryer my cloths have a lot of bacteria I would give it a good sanitizing. Thanks for watching!
I’ve watched a few videos on RUclips and saw them adding the laundry sanitizer to the bleach compartment because they were also adding Downy Rinse and Refresh. Wouldn’t that dispense the sanitizer too soon and basically make it not work properly? Really enjoyed your video!
According to the directions the Lysol Laundry Sanitizer needs to go into the rinse cycle, so I think the bleach dispenser would dispense too early. Thanks for watching!
@@FieldOfFocus That’s exactly what I thought! Thanks for responding ☺️
I would love to see the results of using regular detergent + 1/2 tsp citric acid in the wash, as well as the same plus 20 mule borax as directed on the box
ok will add that to my suggestion list. Thank you for watching and commenting!
An idea for testing; using citric acid in powder form, at what percentage of acidic solution would be good for the toilet.
I thank you for efforts 🎉
oooh good idea! Will add it to my list!!!!!!!!!!
Hello again! Can you please make a comparison between doctor bronners, Carolina Castile Soap, seven minerals pure castile soap and maybe other castile soap brand pleasee thank youu
That would make a nice video! I will add it to my viewer suggestion list. I did test Dr Bronner's if you want to just see those results here:

Please do a video on barkeepers friend and stainless steel. I don't understand how it works or why it works.
I will add that to my viewer suggestion list! Thanks for watching and commenting!
🔥🔥🔥🔥🥰🥰🥰🥰 thanks
Thanks for watching!! 😊
I would like you to do a petri test with a tape worm and the different de wormer medicines out there to see how long it kills the tape worm if at all...
That does sound interesting... not sure if I will get to that but sure is interesting!
@@FieldOfFocus parasites are what plagues us the medical system calls the symptoms, staph infection, cancer, candida everything else but never the parasite itself so yes to be on the safe side you should probably never openly do this test...its my belief this is the silent war on america
You can't use a petri dish to culture parasites. You can only culture unicellular organisms like molds, yeasts and bacteria.
Hi. Please test vinegar as rinsing agent in the washer as well
That is a great idea for a test, I will add it to my viewer suggestion list! Thanks for watching!
@@FieldOfFocus I viewed because I use the Lysol disinfectant,but wondered if the newer Clorox brand disinfectant is as good or worse. A test with that would be great! Clorox appears cheaper but may be used differently, so I can't really tell. Thanks for your great test and review!!!!!!
Yes Clorox is on my list!!!
Please test detol laundry sanitizer
I will add detol laundry sanitizer to my viewer suggestion list!
Can you test how much drying removes bacteria from the clothes without using the Lysol? I would like to see how much bacteria die from the heating process.

Great idea! I will add that to my viewer suggestion list. I know lots of people that add vinegar to their laundry so that would make a great test! Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@FieldOfFocus I'd say you would need a huge amount of vinegar to actually sanitize the clothes. What it does is soften the fabrics
Love this video! I wonder what results you would get if you laundered the towels with just detergent, without any laundry sanitizer.
Yes I tested that here:

@@FieldOfFocus Thank you!!
I will never use reusable (to be cleaned or sensitized) on the toilet. Disposable works perfect psychologically and reasonably. Yikes just to think about it.
When I clean my home I use disposable for the toilet cleaning, but for these tests I have designated cloths that are used only when testing the toilet. Thanks for your thoughts.
Why can't it be combined with detergent in detergent dispenser? Is it because of chemical reaction with each other negatively impacts the performance. I'm asking because this would cut out the pre-soak because while it's washing it would get that recommended 15 minutes for Lysol sanitizer.
I am not sure why it cannot be combined.. It says on the label that there are two ways to use it. 1) as a pre-soak and 2) in the rinse cycle. It says on the label "Not intended to be mixed with laundry detergents in the main was compartment." So I tested it in that way. Thanks for watching!
The disinfectant in Lysol laundry sanitizer is a QAC, which is a cationic surfactant so that conflicts with the ionic surfactant used in laundry detergent.
So it will have reduced (potentially no) efficacy when it's mixed with detergents.
Hmm. I bought some but now that I think about it, it might not work for me. Because I am stuck using creek water to wash and rinse, and hanging to dry. I might as well be rinsing in toilet water...ugh. It's not a normal washer either-its just a washer with a spin dryer so...guess I'll save it for the laundromat trips. (yay, more bacteria...)
I appreciate this video a lot though so thank you!
Oh that sounds difficult. I agree using it when you can at the laundromat sounds best. Thank you for watching and commenting.
Saw this, I am wondering with petri dish clothes washed and rinsed in the washer without any Lyson, presoak or otherwise, just normal washing.
That was the first video I did in this series:
Is It Enough?? Laundry w/ Tide Pods & Drying Cloths To Remove Bacteria?? I Tested w/ Petri Dishes! ruclips.net/video/gPSyRFN3-Zo/видео.html
I just put the Lysol in my wash with soap
Lysol does say to only use it in the rise cycle.. so maybe try that instead?
Re the directions, honestly, I’m not sure if it’s killing all the bacteria, but I’ve found that just adding two capfuls to the bleach dispenser on my machine makes a big difference in the stink of my gym clothes and on the off chance my cat pees on something.
Interesting! Thanks for your thoughts!
What was the result with detergent??? No are you not supposed to use them together
Yes, this exactly my question. We need a 3rd arm of the study. What would happen with only regular detergent alone?

Since I dont have a dryet, im assuming incould put my cloths in the microwave after the wash
I don't know if that is necessary... I haven't tested air dry or microwave... Thanks for watching!
What about WITHOUT the sanitizer? I have no idea what a regular wash does without it. How much bacteria STAYS without the sanitizer at all?
