Frequently asked questions
What is Dettol used for?
Dettol products are used to disinfect surfaces, clean around the home and, in the case of the antiseptic liquid, to help cleanse minor cuts and grazes when diluted as directed. Always follow the label for the correct use and dilution.
Does Dettol kill scabies?
Dettol is a disinfectant and is not a treatment for scabies, which is caused by mites and needs a specific medicated treatment from a pharmacy or GP. Do not rely on Dettol - speak to a pharmacist for the correct scabies treatment for you and your household.
Can I use Dettol on my skin?
Only the products intended for skin, such as the antiseptic liquid diluted as directed or Dettol hand wash, should be used on skin. Never apply concentrated disinfectant or surface products to the skin, and follow the label.
Is a Dettol bath safe?
The antiseptic liquid can be added to bath water only in the small amount and dilution stated on the label. Never use undiluted, and stop if it irritates your skin.
Does Dettol kill germs and viruses?
Dettol disinfectant products are designed to kill a high percentage of common bacteria and viruses on surfaces when used as directed, including the correct contact time. Check the specific product label for what it claims to kill.
How do I use Dettol antiseptic liquid on a cut?
Dilute it as stated on the label and use it to gently cleanse the area around a minor cut or graze; do not use it neat. For deep, dirty or infected wounds, seek medical advice.
