  • These DIY disinfecting wipes are so easy to make and are very effective at killing germs and viruses. 3 ingredients. Isopropyl alcohol used to make these disinfectant wipes is effective in killing germs and fighting viruses. Keep your home clean and safe.

    1. Cut paper towel roll in half and place in container.
    2. Pour mixture over paper towels.
    3. Let sit until saturated. If not wet enough, make more solution and pour over paper towels.
    4. Remove cardboard inner piece and pull wipes from the center of the roll.

    - Pop top storage container: amzn.to/3gmNnNq

    I bought micro fiber shop type towls. Cut in half. Roll into a continuous roll. Put down into the old wipe container but a plastic coffee can works fine. Pour the mixture over and soak. Been using this for a year.

    I never thought of cutting a role of paper towels in half - I found what you did as for putting the paper towels in a container real interesting - you can use baking soda also to disinfect - when you use it in a garden it kills fungus or disenfect's the soil - Baking soda is a alkaline, - bacteria and fungus's are acid based when they consume sodium bicarbonate it sets off a chimecal reaction and they foam up from the inside and explode - that's how baking kills bacteria and fungus that's why they can't survive in an alkaline envirment - there were some videos on CZcams were they demenstrated puting bacteria on slides that had been wiped with baking soda and water, under a microscope with a camera on it - after a minute or so you could see the mold and bacteria explode - the show was on gardening and how to control garden mold - when I had a garden I used ashes instead it does the same thing

      This is a great idea Sandy! I’m sure that disinfectant wipes will be sold out again in no time! It’s a good time to stock up on the 91% rubbing alcohol from Walmart while they have it on the shelves! I just wanted to tell you I received my 4 pack of the small lanterns you showed in another video…they give off a lot of light!! Today, NJ was hit with a ton of rain and we lost power for 5 hours…these lanterns came in so handy! Thank you so much for giving us such great suggestions on getting prepared!!! 😘 Janel in NJ

      So far it's lasted the whole afternoon
      Small flash light with 3 triple batteries .
      So first I want to find it how long it lasts prob 12 hours. Then when they are out. Re charge them with the solar charger in the morning. It's cheap so it doesn't show when the batteries are fully charged. But I'm going to charge them for 6 hours.
      Then I'm going to run them again....lloll.....on Monday,...see how
      Long it lasts, that one battery is equal to 500 triple a batteries so long as you keep charging.

      The battery says 500 charges so thats one year and one half, but if you add on the three hours that's like a little more but the if subtract some failure that's a little less,
      So it's one year and a half.
      Now the second part is stalled cuase it's a cloudy day here today cuase of that storm,
      But sparatic the charge right now,
      But it is charging. But I only get sun till 12
      Then I have to change it to the other side at 4 p.m. to get more
      I figure
      Charge it into lunch tommorow
      Should give it afull charge.
      Then I'll test them on Wednesday. See if it goes 15 .
      But really 8 hours is fine. As it would be just the eve that light would be needed.
