Someone was in my apartment and went to take a mop bucket and put it on the kitchen countertop. Then that person took the pull out kitchen sink faucet sprayer and went to turn on the water to spray it in the bucket. The issue is right before this person did this, they dropped the faucet sprayer right into the bucket. The bucket was not cleaned the last few times it was used. It was just rinsed with water and not well. So it wasn't cleaned or rinsed with soap which meant that it had lot of disgusting mop water after mopping.
The thing is I know that besides the dirty mop water, it included use with a cleaner like faboluso but also it had bleach and muriatic acid used in it at separates times before this. So because of this, the mop bucket is very dirty and disgusting even if it was cleaned which it wasn't. The last few times it was used, it was not cleaned and just rinsed with mop water and then regular water and that is all.
So because of this reason, I'm disgusted by it and don't even want to use any water that comes out of the holes from the pull out kitchen faucet sprayer because of this reason. I did take a few paper towels and some dawn blue dish soap and sort of scrubbed the area where the water comes out of the faucet. Then I turned on the water a bit and then scrubbed it again. However, that doesn't seem like it would do much as this water is dirty as well and I should soak paper towel in dawn blue dish soap and soap paper towel in some water from a clean faucet like a shower faucet and then scrub it?
I did read soap only cleans but it does not disinfect or sanitize which is what I want here? This is I would say this is a bit similar to like if imagine someone was to put their mouth into the kitchen faucet and drinking from it. I would want to immediately disinfect and sanitize it but this I think is much worst because that was a very dirty mop bucket that hasn't been cleaned in a while.
I had asked this question somewhere and someone else mentioned they would be disgusted by the sprayer dropping in the bucket. That person suggested to buy a food safe disinfectant spray. Does anyone know a specific product for this situation? I want to spray it and after spraying it, I would feel comfortable with the water coming out of the kitchen spray faucet. I know you could use lysol wipes or lysol spray which I have to buy but those leave residue and I read you should never use it on food surfaces or food and I consider the area where water comes out of the kitchen faucet a similar area since well you using that water to clean dishes and stuff?
Can someone give me advice on this? I don't believe vinegar is a good disinfectant so scrubbing it with a paper towel isn't going to do much? I know dawn blue dish soap just cleans and does not disinfect or sanitize which is what I want to do here? I did read about using bleach but to me using bleach on any drink or food surfaces which includes where the water comes out of the kitchen faucet doesn't seem like a good idea to me even when you rinse it out? Is there any specific food safe food disinfectant that I can use to spray into the area where water comes out of the kitchen sink faucet with sprayer to clean it?
