Single-room misting and food contact sanitation

The single 13.9-ounce Seventh Generation Disinfecting Spray (model 10732913229816) serves as a dedicated plant based disinfectant spray designed to kill 99.99 percent of household germs botanically. Its active formula targets common household pathogens, including cold and flu viruses, across hard, non-porous surfaces without requiring a secondary water rinse. Because it eliminates the need to wash down surfaces after spraying, it serves as a practical disinfectant safe for food contact surfaces such as cutting boards, highchair trays, and kitchen prep counters. If you regularly pair routine surface wiping with a standard seventh generation cleaning spray, this botanical disinfectant provides the targeted germ-killing step needed for deeper hygiene.

This formulation relies on essential oils and botanical extracts rather than synthetic masking agents or harsh chlorine. Scented with an herbal blend of eucalyptus, spearmint, and thyme, the spray acts simultaneously as a household deodorizer that neutralizes lingering smells rather than covering them up with artificial perfumes. It is suitable for households with children and household pets, misting evenly over doorknobs, light switches, bathroom fixtures, and trash bins. Measuring 2.6 by 2.6 by 9.5 inches and weighing 1.16 pounds, the standalone metal canister fits neatly in narrow under-sink storage caddies or utility shelves.

For shoppers maintaining a single apartment or seeking a dedicated can for seasonal cold prevention, this individual unit provides ample capacity without requiring the storage footprint of bulk inventory. However, if your cleaning routine involves wiping away sticky residues, dried kitchen spills, or physical dust alongside germ sanitization, a standalone liquid spray gives way to pre-moistened textured wipes that lift away soil mechanically.

• Botanical germ treatment kills 99.99 percent of household germs, including cold and flu viruses.
• Rinse-free formula leaves no synthetic chemical residues on non-porous food contact surfaces.
• Scented with essential oils and botanical extracts featuring seventh generation eucalyptus spearmint thyme notes.
• EPA registered disinfectant and deodorizer suitable for hard surfaces around kids and pets.

For high-traffic kitchens, shared workstations, and busy play areas, Seventh Generation Disinfectant Wipes Lemongrass Citrus offer a convenient one-step cleaning and sanitizing format. Unlike aerosol mists that require clean cloths to lift away dirt, these seventh generation disinfectant wipes clean and disinfect simultaneously. The formula kills 99.99 percent of household germs, including cold and flu viruses, using the natural germ-killing capability of thyme oil. Shoppers who regularly stock their cleaning closets with seventh generation multi surface wipes for basic dusting will appreciate the enhanced antimicrobial action provided by this specialized botanical line.

Supplied as a bulk case containing six canisters of 70 wipes each (model 10732913228130), this package provides a total of 420 pre-saturated wipes. The listing records package dimensions of 4.23 by 4.23 by 8.42 inches and a combined shipping weight of 7.8 pounds, making it a substantial supply suitable for long-term household or light commercial use. Designed for hard, non-porous surfaces throughout every room in the house, the wipes require no water rinse after use, even on kitchen counters and dining tables where meals are served. The natural botanical oils infuse rooms with the zesty aroma of lemongrass combined with herbal thyme.

These seventh generation lemongrass citrus wipes excel at quick daily touch-ups, wiping down refrigerator handles, bathroom faucets, computer keyboards, and pet feeding stations. They eliminate the step of grabbing an auxiliary rag or microfiber towel, making them ideal for rapid cleanups. When the cleaning objective shifts from direct physical spot scrubbing to wide-area airborne deodorizing and expansive surface misting, aerosol sprays become the more efficient mechanical choice.

• One-step sanitizing wipes that clean grime and disinfect non-porous surfaces together.
• Botanical thyme oil formula kills 99.99 percent of germs and cold and flu viruses.
• Generous multi-pack supply containing six canisters with 70 wipes per canister.

For larger homes, multi-story buildings, and high-turnover work environments, the Seventh Generation Disinfectant Spray pack of 4 provides comprehensive household coverage. Bundling four full-sized 13.9-ounce canisters, this package allows users to position a botanical spray in the kitchen, primary bathroom, guest quarters, and laundry area simultaneously. Like the single canisters, this Seventh Generation Disinfectant Spray pack of 4 delivers an EPA registered botanical disinfectant that eliminates 99.99 percent of household germs, including common cold and flu viruses, using plant-derived essential oils.

The formula contains no synthetic fragrances, chlorine bleach, or harsh chemical carriers, making it suitable for misting hard, non-porous surfaces around children and family pets. Scented with essential oils and botanical extracts, its herbal profile features notes of eucalyptus, spearmint, and thyme that leave a delicate vanilla and herbal finish in treated rooms. Because no water rinsing is needed on food contact surfaces, family meal preparation spaces can be sanitized swiftly between breakfast and dinner prep routines, much like how households rely on clean tableware washed with seventh generation dishwasher gel to maintain sanitary kitchen environments.

The package dimensions for this four-pack assembly measure 2.68 by 10.56 by 9.56 inches, with a listing weight recorded at 6.56 ounces. This bulk package represents the ideal option for individuals who already appreciate Seventh Generation’s botanical formula and want consistent stock on hand without ordering individual canisters repeatedly.
