I work at a dog kennel where I have to use a strong disinfectant called Triple Two a lot. Is this safe for me to use during pregnancy?

Are you mixing as directed, 2 oz to a gallon of water, are you wearing gloves, mask, goggles as require by OSHA.

Hi, mommi2kdchole!

If you need to use any kind of strong chemicals where the vapors might be inhaled, I would strongly recommend that you use a respirator. I would also recommend the use of other types of protection as Fr_Chuck has pointed out.

Would your employer be providing the protective wear that you need to use?

Thanks!
