Hand Sanitizer recipes to combat/contain Corona Virus

WHO recipe for hand sanitizer, now that the manufactured ones are running out. I know I myself use a lot when I am out and about and cannot access water and soap.

Just in case they take it down

Ingredients

  • 1 cup 99% Isopropyl alcohol OR 1 cup plus 4 teaspoons 91% Isopropyl alcohol
  • 1 tablespoon hydrogen peroxide
  • 1 teaspoon glycerin
  • Water

Instructions

  • Tip the alcohol, peroxide and glycerin into a 2-cup glass measure. Then add enough water to bring the total quantity to 1 1/3 cups. Mix well.
  • Pour, via funnel, the sanitizer into small ("travel-size") bottles. I used squeeze-type bottles, but spritzer- or spray-type bottles are ideal.

How to make your own disinfectant wipes

  • Paper Towels or Cloths (think microfiber cloths, old t-shirts, etc.)
  • 1 Gallon Water
  • 2 Tablespoons Dawn Dish Soap (make sure it’s Dawn)
  • 3/4 Cup 99% Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol
  • 1/4 Cup Bleach (optional)
  • 5-10 Drops Lemon Essential Oil
  • Large Bowl
  • Container to store it in (reuse an old Clorox container, baby wipe container or jar)
  • Start by diluting your bleach (if using) by adding 4 tablespoons (1/4 cup) of bleach to 1 gallon of water. Stir well.
  • Pour half of that bleach solution into a bowl and add your rubbing alcohol, dish soap, and essential oil. Mix well.
  • Place the paper towels or cloths into your container and pour the mixture into it covering them entirely. 
  • When ready to use, remove a wipe and use. You can continually make this solution as needed.
  • You can also put this solution in a spray bottle and spray on surfaces then wipe.

  1. Too late for me - we are already in lock down, and due to my age and asthma, I am totally isolated... family are doing shopping and dropping it outside and chatting from 2 metres away - it's horrible!
    Stay safe
