Or any other antibacterial shit. You dont need it. It would be nice if we didnt all get sick all the time, but getting sick gives us antibodies to fight off diseases. Yes, using antibacterial wipes and all will kill the bacteria in your home that can cause illness (rarely), but every time you spray one of those cans you play the role of a gigantic bacterial-world meteor and kill off all the non-resistant bacteria, letting the survivors propegate. Humans are selecting bacterial species that are resistant to our ways of killing them. We are creating monsters.
Stop using that shit. Yes, it needs to be used in hospitals, but seriously, in your home? Whats better, keeping your kid in a sterile environment or getting them sick a few times and never have to worry about germs ever again?
Dont buy antibacterial soaps, sprays or anything. Avoid it. Your body is covered in bacteria anyways, and most of them are harmless or even helpful.
