Re: [ARSCLIST] Growing things...
I offer the following suggestion as there are a number of down sides to the
use of bleach.
A excellent  hospital grade disinfectant, Physan 20 (www.physan.com), may
be an alternative for treating the boxes.  This water based solution of
quaternary salts is very clean chemically [contains very little caustic &
is well defined] & quite potent.  It can be used as a wipe or as a fine
mist.  It is active against a wide range of organisms & is routinely used
as a  greenhouse disinfectant.
The commercial product is usually diluted 14 mL to 1 gal & I'll be glad to
send a sample to Graham upon request.
Best of luck,
Duane Goldman
