After the trial it was recorded that the disinfectant cut deaths from childbirth fever by 50%. This was the start of a long and established relationship between dettol and the medical profession and very soon after that was just as popular in homes up and down the country.

I would just like to point out that this product has now changed it's name back to Dettol. I would like to talk about mould and damp, I know it's not a popular topic or a particularly interesting one but it is one that seems to crop in my life a lot! You see I think it follows me, now before you call for the straight jacket or strong medication (I'm already on that!) I will tell you briefly why. When the other half and I first started living together we rented a 1 bedroom flat that was quite cute after about 3 months I noticed so damp patches in the bathroom and on some walls. So I informed the landlord his solution was to paint over them! Because I was also ...  Read the complete review

Mould is a word which conjures up different pictures in the individual imagination. To some it is the green and white stuff which attaches itself to that old satsuma left in the fruit bowl after Christmas. For others it is dark slime which creeps inexorably up the bathroom wall high up where it joins the ceiling. If any of you have the old metal Crittall windows, so fashionable decades ago, you won't want to be reminded of it's greedy presence. Mould is a live fungus, a microbial growth which ranges from the miraculously beneficial Penicillin, through the green pin mould which grows contentedly on bread, to the black stuff which attaches itself ...  Read the complete review

Picture the scene?.. I am currently in the process of selling my house and the buyers' surveyor is coming tomorrow morning to make an assessment on my property. This is the bit that I have been dreading. Don't get me wrong I know that my house has always been well cared for and any problems have been addressed as they have occurred, but I am so scared he'll find something that we don't know about and our buyers will pull out. I know it?s silly but I can?t help it! On rereading I have just realised how sexist that remark is! It could just as easily be a lady surveyor couldn't it? Anyway back to the opinion - the one thing ...  Read the complete review

This is a tale of grime, of blood sweat and tears, of standing naked in a bath, with a toothbrush scrubbing for England! Since moving into our house, we have always had a problem with mildew and mould. Now, one could argue that the mould/mildew in the bathroom could be put down to the lady of the house. The lady of the house, whom from this point on we shall call....ME, likes to have an hour long bath with the door and window closed. Sometimes ME likes to alternate this pattern, and so therefore opts for the worlds longest shower, whereupon the steam will circulate around the room several times. Unable to see through the now thick smog, ME will finally ...  Read the complete review

I bought Dettox Mold & Mildew after reading a very favourable opinion on Dooyoo. We have been having some serious damp problems in our bathroom and as a result, there is quite a bit of mildew around the bath and on the tile grout and the external wall of the bathroom has turned almost black just 2 months after I painted it. I sprayed some Dettox on the shower curtain and the tiles, and had some success. The shower curtain was just starting to have some mildew stains and spraying Detox was enough to clean it completely, no scrubbing needed. The tiles didn't look any different though. This could be because the mildew on them has been there for a while. ...  Read the complete review
