spray bottles for disinfectant?

I've always used disinfectant that you dilute at home because it's so much cheaper. used to use dettol etc but now trying zoflora.

but whatever brand I've used iv had the same battle that the spray bottles keep clogging up or breaking etc. I bought a heavy duty one off amazon which worked but only did a single line spray so not really suitable for general household cleaning.

am I missing something really obvious? I'm fed up of battling with it and just want something that will work. Hmm

Could you get a cheap bottle of disinfectant spray and then reuse that bottle? It's worked quite well for us.

Hozelock. Very sturdy, adjustable spray and not expensive. I use mine for diluted disinfectant too and it's been great. I got mine from Wickes.

Can you not buy a bottle of spray cleaner and refill that?

I've put some in an old Flash Cleaner with Bleach spray bottle which works really well. I've never had any success with those water spray bottles you get at the garden centre.

it's the spray bottles from cleaning products I had been trying to reuse but they all clogged up after a short period of time. The only ones I bought empty was the last one when I thought I was being clever ordering a heavy duty one off amazon.

I will give the one mentioned above a go through, hopefully I can find it on amazon as not likely to get a chance to go out shopping for one over the next few days/weeks

No problems with this bottle.

I also use Zoflora for the kitchen and vinegar + eucalyptus oil for highchairs, etc. and I reuse Ecover spray bottles. never had one fail on me yet.
