Does the method Antibacterial All-Purpose Cleaner kill germs?

Are you sick of trying ineffective surface cleaners that don't destroy germs? Us too. This method Antibacterial All-Purpose Cleaner is tough on grease, grime, and up to 99.9% of household germs*, yet gentle enough to use around your pets and kids.

Where can I use method’s antibacterial cleaner?

This antibacterial cleaner is ideal for places bacteria might linger, like kitchen surfaces, countertops, high chairs, door knobs, and garbage cans. While safe for most surfaces, always spot test in an inconspicuous place before using.

Why does this antibacterial spray have a strong scent?

Antibacterial products sometimes have a stronger odor than standard all-purpose cleaners due to the germ-busting citric acid-based formula. Consider trying another scent selection from the dropdown above to see if that works better for you, or switch to a standard all-purpose cleaner if you prefer a more straightforward fragrance experience. Please note: Standard all-purpose cleaners are not antibacterial.

If you’re looking for a heavy-duty bathroom cleaner, try the method Antibacterial Bathroom Cleaner. It tackles soap scum with germ-fighting properties and leaves behind a fresh, minty scent.
