<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Yes, Rescue Disinfectants kill Ringworm.</h2>



Ringworm can be caused by either the fungus Microsporum canis, or the Trichophyton species. 



When using <a href="https://www.rescuedisinfectants.com/products/rescue-concentrate/">Rescue Concentrate</a>, we would recommend a 1:16 dilution (8 oz/gallon of water) with a 5-minute contact time. When using the <a href="https://www.rescuedisinfectants.com/products/rescue-ready-touse/">Ready-to-Use Liquid</a> or <a href="https://www.rescuedisinfectants.com/products/rescue-wipes/">Wipes</a>, we would recommend a contact time of 1 minute. Contact time is the amount of time the liquid should remain wet on the surface in order to achieve disinfection.
