Knowledge is wonderful.
Read this Excerpt
The EPA doesn't permit green certification of disinfectants by organizations such as Green Seal because disinfectants are considered pesticides, and the federal government uses its own separate safety and efficacy criteria. When disinfection is necessary and a green approach is desired, consider a product that doesn't contain phosphates, highly caustic or acidic pH, added fragrance or dyes, harmful VOCs, or ingredients such as butyl cellusolve or nonylphenol ethoxylate. You can also green up your cleaning practices by using the right product in the right place at the right time. Disinfectants often are overused, and inappropriately introducing toxic substances into environments is not wise, green, or healthy. It's akin to using an atomic bomb when a bullet can do the job.
