Yes, Rescue™ Disinfectants are effective against Canine parvovirus. Depending on the format you choose, you can achieve disinfection between 1-5 minutes.
Canine Parvovirus is a non-enveloped virus, meaning that it is relatively more difficult to kill.
When using Rescue™ Concentrate for parvovirus, we recommend a 1:16 dilution (8 oz/gallon of water) with a 5-minute contact time. Contact time is the amount of time the solution should remain wet on the surface in order to achieve disinfection.
When using the Rescue™ Ready-to-Use Liquid for Canine parvovirus, we recommend a 1-minute contact time.
When using the Rescue™ Ready-to-Use Wipes for Canine parvovirus, we recommend a 5-minute contact time.
