And I totally understand about the chemical burn from Parvo. It's soooo strong!! if you can't stand trigene or virkon, you're not gonna like it! Sets my asthma off too...

vetaclean parvo in a spray bottle - bad news, do not spray it, inhaling this stuff can be seriously bad

We would still be using Trigene if one of the vets hadn't had a bad experience with her cat falling into a bucket of it... :( I spent ages looking into the pros and cons of all the cleaning products out there. Trigene is definitely the best and most cost effective but not very environmentally friendly...

Sorry we cross posted!!

We used the regular vetaclean not the parvo. Though we did use that once but quiclky got rid after one of our nurses got a nasty chemical burn on her leg when she spilt it (through her trousers!!).

We used to use it for our bowls etc and the middle of the day mop but from what I remember it isnt a disinfectant. I think it is classed as a sanitiser or detergent but not 100% sure. We never used it in sprays as used virkon alongside it for floors, tables, kennels etc.
We changed over to trigene and use that for everything.

its the vetaclean parvo, and yeah, to get the parvo cover its like 40mls to 1 litre, not exactly cost efficient, but im worried if i mention that they`ll want to use the general cleaning dilution rate, which doesnt cover parvo, so like, whats the point in using it in that case, over trigene.

We used to use Vetaclen Natural and I would not, personally, recommend changing to it. I'm not sure about it's use in spray bottles, etc, as we continue to use Virkon, but I would urge someone to investigate the efficacy especially with regards virology. It is fine to use for 'everyday' kennel cleaning, bowls etc, but I could find no evidence of efficacy in isolation areas. Vetaclean Parvo is good but in my experience, not cheap (and don't breathe it in!!). We ended up changing to Safe 4 after a long and arduous process of sifting through data sheets!!

Hope that helps in a small way...
