vodka

[daveaple]

I heard Kirstie Alley on Oprah talk about cleaning with vodka. Has anyone tried this for Morgellons? I'm thinking of putting some in a spray bottle and giving it a shot (no pun intended). Since it is about 40% alcohol, I bet it can kill a lot of small organisms.

Well yes but so does Hyd peroxide 35% and it's nowhere near as expensive.Plus the fact I couldn't stand the sight of Jim licking the windows and work surfaces!!

I have seen fibers in alcohol cloths for steriling tthat look like "M" and also moved. The same is true with baby wipes and the like.

Someone told me that Gin was good for keeping it away.

This makes me wonder because my husband drinks a couple gin drinks in the late afternoon before supper on Fri.-Sat.-Sun.

I on't know, only wondering.

That's probably rubbing alcohol, which is isopropanol. Vodka contains ethanol, so it might do a better job.

I personally am trying to switch from wine (fermentation) to vokda (distilled) for drinking. I figure vodka and fresh lemon is a winner. Plus I also found this great product at health food store: 100% fresh coconut water (like drinking from a coconut with a straw) I also use in it. I figure I'll kill them from the inside.

I also have used vodka in hotel rooms if I forgot to bring rubbing alcohol. I always make sure I'm sober when I check in so I don't get the two confused at the pour, if I have both on hand.

If ethanol does work, another thing you could do is mix Vicks Vaposteam (Vicks VapoSteam relieves cough associated with a cold) with some
water in a spray bottle. Then you can probably also benefit from some of the essential oils in there.
(Camphor, cedarleaf oil, eucalyptus oil, laureth-7, menthol, nutmeg oil)

Benefit for sterilizing a hotel room or a martini?

I drink vodka, seems to work pretty good

I need to mention bug arrest and eco-vie. Both are enzyme sprays and have worked really well in cleaning out the fibers/spider webs around my house & environment.

I've heard that rubbing alcohol doesn't work at all and might aggravate the "M" situation.

Thanks for the tips regarding bug arrest and eco-vie. BTW, are these available at any stores in the U.S. or only thru mail-order?

I'm eager to try them.
