Review: This is a great disinfectant for animal wounds or used as a disinfectant cleaner for your home. The smell is not very potent. This gallon jug last me well over a year!! Important to know is that it needs diluted for most applications!! I have used this as a disinfectant for my reptile enclosures, just dilute it and put in a spray bottle. Have used it to clean wounds on most animals as well as people. Not a sticky cleaner. Works well for what I need it to!! Never had any issues! I deep clean my reptile enclosures with this since it’s not as strong of a smell as bleach is and works great!! Safe to use around pets, just don’t let them ingest it without consulting a vet first. I have used this diluted formula for a mouth cleaner in bearded dragons with mouth rot. I absolutely love this disinfectant!! My whole family uses it!!

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Item states it's 2% solution but reviewers state they dilute it further? Also shampoos and other ready to apply solutions are 2-4% I'm lost here?**
A: According to studies, solution as week as 0.12% are sufficient for killing microbes in 30 seconds.   In fact that is the strength of effective oral rinse.   HIbiclens is 4% which is quite strong.  I think for washing I would pets I'd probably dilute down to .75 to 1%.

**Q: Can you use this to clear dogs tear stains?**
A: Absolutely no. Find out the cause of tear stain in the first place and not trying to clear the aftermath. In my dog’s case, he didn’t have tear stain but had beard stain. Cleared by removing chicken from his diet. And the fur without stain grow so I just trim the stain over time

**Q: Does this have added fragrance?  Thanks in advance for your help and time.**
A: yes, according to another reply regarding ingredients: usp purified water, alkyl dimethylamine oxide, chlorhexidine gluconate,polyoxyethhylene-6-cocoamide, octylphenoxypolyethoxyethanol, glycerin, polyethylene glycol, hydroxyethylcellulose, fragrance and fdc blue #1.

**Q: Is this the same "Chlorhexidine 2% Solution"  that I get from my vet to use on my cats' little scratches, irritations, etc.?**
A: Ask your vet.

Chlorhexidine may be the active ingredient in what they give you. It's in some soaps, shampoos and wipes. 
Even this 2% solutiin is highly concentrated and is often dilluted more with plain water for many uses.
So it could be this and already dilluted.

*by C***R on 31 May 2025*

This might be the most industrial-sized bottle of anything I’ve ever bought for a 90-pound dog. No, I don’t run a barn. No, I don’t own a horse. I’m just a grown adult who still hasn’t figured out how to read fluid ounces like a functional human. So now I have enough antiseptic to sanitize a battlefield. I panicked a little when it arrived and thought I was supposed to pour it straight on my dog like some kind of chemical cleanse. Surprise, it needs to be diluted. That would’ve been a nice detail to fully process before unscrewing the cap like I was prepping for surgery. Maybe next time print that part in font size “ARE YOU SURE?” That said, it’s an awesome product. Works incredibly well for cleaning paws, hot spots, and mystery itches. No weird residue. No overpowering smell. Just good old reliable antiseptic. I asked my dog for feedback. He stared at me with quiet rage, because every time I wipe his paws with this stuff, it means he doesn’t get to lick them for a solid 30 minutes. He doesn’t care about science. He just wants his salty toe beans back. Pictured next to my Captains of Crush hand gripper for scale. Because if I’m going to misjudge size again, I might as well do it consistently. For the record, usage directions specify two tablespoons per gallon of clean water. Five stars. For performance, value, and a bottle big enough to outlive me by three generations.
