Q. Why are Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes better to use than paper towels, sponges and dish rags?

A. Clorox® Disinfecting Wipes clean and disinfect at the same time. When you use a sponge, dishrag or even paper towel, you can spread bacteria from one surface to another. Instead of killing germs, you are pushing them around and potentially increasing the contaminated surface area.
