Aside from washing your hands and social distancing, there are other ways to help ‘flatten the curve’ and slow down the spread of coronavirus—namely wiping down and disinfecting surfaces.
Common household products like all-purpose cleaners and liquid disinfectants have been hard to come by, however, just like those sought-after items like hand sanitizer and toilet paper.
But now, a few months into the pandemic, we’re starting to see disinfectants back in stock at Amazon—albeit at some inflated prices. But if you need them, you need them and here’s where you can find them. Many of these products fit within the guidelines and recommendations of the CDC and EPA too.
Shop the all-purpose cleaners and disinfectants below:
Fantastik Multi-Surface Degreaser Disinfectant
For the uninitiated, Fantastik is a powerful multi-surface cleaner that’s ideal for just about any room in your home, including bathrooms, kitchens and bedrooms. It’s strong enough to kill 99.9 percent of viruses and bacteria, while safe enough for every day use.
Clorox All Purpose Cleaner
Clorox is pretty much the gold standard when it comes to disinfectants, thanks to its powerful formula that kills bacteria, mold and mildew. This is a cleaning re-fill bottle to replenish your dwindling supply, but it’s suitable enough to use on its own.
“It’s Clorox and it’s hospital-grade cleaner, which is fantastic for using in your bathroom or any area that needs to be sanitized,” writes a satisfied Amazon shopper.

This two-pack of Pine-Sol All-Purpose Cleaner 40-ounce bottles is formulated to kill germs and bacteria on surfaces, while leaving your home smelling clean and fresh. The tried-and-true disinfectant and deodorizer has been around since 1929.
“If you can't find disinfectant wipes, full strength Pine-Sol on a paper towel is perfect for wiping down doorknobs and frequently touched surfaces,” shares a satisfied shopper. “It works well on greasy laundry too.”
Clorox Bleach (three-pack)
Having a tough time finding bleach? Amazon has this three-pack of regular Clorox Bleach on sale for $29, or $11 off its list price. Each bottle of ‘germicidal’ Clorox contains 121 ounces of unscented bleach that’s powerful enough to kill 99.9 percent of bacteria and viruses.
“Great stuff,” says a fan. “This bleach actually seems better than the regular bleach in stores, even the normal Clorox. It’s ‘germicidal’ so maybe that's it.”

“I love the whole Spray Nine line. It’s my main cleaner in my place and at work. I used it in my car too,” says a five-star reviewer. “It got rid of some tacky substance left behind from my phone mount with no problem. Also removed a scuff mark on my bumper from a shopping cart. I have a spray bottle at home, a spray bottle at work and a gallon I keep for backup.”
