Now that the kids are back in school and we’re in the thick of flu season, keeping germs at bay is a top priority for parents. Lysol has teamed up with Dr. Laura Jana – a pediatrician, mother of three school aged-children and owner of an educational daycare center – to provide moms with top tips for keeping their families healthy. In addition to sharing these ideas for good health, Lysol would like to give two lucky Contest Corner readers a prize pack that contains a 12.5 oz Lysol Disinfectant Spray and two 40 ct. canisters of Lysol Disinfecting Wipes, so read on!

Dr. Laura Jana’s Tips For a Healthy School Year

Here are some of Dr. Jana’s tips for a healthy, happy school year:

  • The Health administration is predicting a very serious cold and flu season, so teach your children about healthy hygiene habits before they go back to school and get exposed to classroom germs, like MRSA or H1N1 virus. Check out the new educational Web Site for kids, developed in partnership with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), at OOPKids.com. This kid-friendly Web site is designed to educate children about healthy hygiene habits and safety routines.
  • Send school germs packing by encouraging your children to drop their book bags, take off their shoes and leave their coats at the door when they walk in. Send them straight to the sink to wash their hands for at least 20 seconds (long enough to sing Happy Birthday twice!) while you spray their bags with Lysol Disinfectant Spray to help kill bacteria they may have picked up from the school bus, the playground or the classroom. Lysol Disinfectant Spray effectively kills 99.9% of bacteria on soft surfaces, including the family couch! For more information, check out the Lysol Back to School Information Center website.

  • Resources & Downloads has a variety of downloads including the “Looking After You” series of booklets, which provide practical information and tips for keeping you and your children healthy from pregnancy through childhood.

My Take:

I tested out both the Lysol Disinfecting Wipes and Spray in my home. Like most people, keeping surfaces clean and sanitary is important to me. I really liked both of them, and have been using them throughout the house. I’ve used the Disinfecting Wipes to clean everything from garbage cans to the bathroom sink – they are very convenient to use, and since they’re saturated with moist cleaning agents, I felt like they was easier to use than paper towels. It was great for cleaning tricky nooks and crannies, and left everything sparkling clean and smelling nice.

The Disinfecting Spray is versatile, because you can use it on both hard and soft surfaces. My favorite use for it is spraying it on the couch – it helps to freshen the fabric and leaves a pleasant scent. Cleaning furniture can be tricky, so I found this to be helpful. These worked well for me and I’d be happy to use them for future cleaning projects.

  42. Ga-ross!
    Unlike bacteria, viruses lack the ability to grow or replicate on their own. Virologists have said that viruses are not “alive”. They require a living host, (like a person), or a cell to support their replication.

  50. I learned that it has been estimated that 60% of all human infections are caused by viruses. Not bacteria like most household cleaners claim to eradicate and we spend extra $$$ on each year.
