    This video is all about vinegar!
    I tested, with sterile swabs and Petri dishes, various surfaces around my home to see how well vinegar removes bacteria. I tested full strength vinegar, 50/50 vinegar with dish soap, and 50/50 vinegar with water.

    I think on the toilet the soap helps the vinegar solution “stick” to the surface and also scrub and rinse away any remaining live bacteria. And because it’s perpendicular to the ground, it doesn’t have as long of contact with the product versus the sink etc. That’s my unscientific theory lol

    Hello. Please also do varying ratio of dish soap and vinegar solution to test the lowest or highest soap to vinegar ratio till it becomes ineffective or more effective. I want to know the most effective recipe in terms of using vinegar and soap without using excessive soap. Also what if water is also added in the mix in a cost efficient ratio? Will it lower effectiveness? And what if the vinegar solution is used as a rinsing agent after using soap instead? Will that be as effective as well? In what ratio will it lend most effective/useless? I would also love to see how vinegar pairs well with laundry detergent in the wash (premixing them like you did here then another where the vinegar is added during rinse cycle instead).
    I am impressed with the results of the vinegar dish soap solution and would love to see more of it. I hope you will test more vinegar solutions since it is the go to pet and kid safe cleaner.
    I would love to see it tested on porous materials as well. It would be interesting to see how dish soap and vinegar is effective at disinfecting toilet brush as well.
    Thank you so much for this channel; I can now sleep soundly at night using vinegar and dish soap! 😅😮

    With so many options for cleaners, it really does get confusing at times deciding what to use where! You always wonder if it really does disinfect or not. I try to narrow down how many different cleaners I have in my house, but that’s not always easy since the bathroom and kitchen are entirely different surfaces. While I’ve always thought bleach was the best disinfect, it’s not an option for my granite countertops or stainless sink. 🙃 So… the search continues. Thanks for the interesting facts on the vinegar!

    • @FieldOfFocus
      @FieldOfFocus  ปีที่แล้ว +3

      Hi there! I am so gad my channel is helpful! I am glad you noted that some cleaners work better in different locations. I have had some people argue with me that my results are wrong because a cleaner does well in the kitchen but not the bathroom and vice versa. I have a long list of products to test so check back once in a while to see how it is going! Thanks for watching and commenting!

      Why can't you use bleach on granite and stainless steel sinks? I have done this. Is it damaging to it? I know that vinegar is not an option for granite, because it is acidic and damages natural stone.

      Bleach is not recommended for either one. It can destroy the protective layer on either one, and can sometimes change the color on granite. While you will always find differing opinions, I opt to play it safe.

    Many soaps are salts of carboxylic acids. Vinegar is a 4% (or more in "cleaning" mixtures) solution of a 2-carbon carboxylic acid. If you mix vinegar with soap, you will partially reprotonate the soap to make lipids (read fats). Keep vinegar separate from soap. Bleach is a different story, as it is alkaline.

      With Dawn (basic), yes. They will cancel each other’s pH. With Palmolive, it won't because the one used in the video (ultra strength) is actually acidic. I have read the safety data sheet for this particular formula. It has a pH of 3.4.
