Bleach for fungus: Bleach is one of the most effective ways to disinfect for fungus. Remember to launder all of your socks, sheets, etc... In a good bleach detergent. Bleach cleansing wipes work well to clean rubber shoes or flip flops. Also cleanse common areas (ie... Shower, tile floors) with bleach cleaning products.
