No official expert test results with Ebola, but...
I live in the suburbs of Chicongo, so I don't have any cows. :)
But I do have several gallons of chlorhexidine gluconate 'Udder Wash' concentrate, each gallon is diluted 10:1(for 10 gallons of cleansing agent per gallon). I use it for viral decontamination flu, Ebola, etc. It's inexpensive and goes a long way if the time should arise. The 'Teat Dip' and 'Udder Wash' come plain-for outerwear and with lanolin for that nice soft Ebola-Free skin cleansing. :)
Chlorhexidine gluconate cleanser is effective and is used against enveloped viruses such as Ebola.
Quoting: uscrusader1 Very useful information here! I live in a remote area but at least it's the right kind for udder wash: ranch country. I'll have no trouble finding something like this at the nearest feed store. There are lots more cows around here than humans. Clorox Disinfecting Wipes Kills 99.9% of Viruses & Bacteria Kills Staph, E. coli, Strept, Kleb Kills Cold & Flu Viruses
Down in the fine print of ingredients, it states "Bleach Free" which of course is odd since the brand is Clorox.
I volunteered some years at our local PAWS and we asked visitors to use these before touching any pets or cages. Wearing a new silk blouse one day, [I worked at the desk] I was concerned about ruining it with a bleach spot so we read the ingredients and saw that there is no bleach in them. Seemed a surprise at the time, but I believe they do kill what they say they kill, so I use them as well.
Quoting: Pooka I found a review page comparing Clorox brand to Lysol brand that explains the active ingredients doing the 'non-bleach' germ-killing at length, that might be edifying; it was for me: "Clorox vs. Lysol: Which Disinfecting Wipes Kill More Germs?" [ link to prudentreviews.com (secure)] By no means would I wish to discourage anyone from adequate protection by mentioning wastefulness: I'm thinking from the 'fixed income' perspective, is all. As you say, if ebola gets loose, overburdened local landfills are going to be the least of our concerns. I can add a carton or two to every Amazon order or every visit to a Dollar store without straining my credit unreasonably. I just hope the wealthier preppers in the area don't empty the shelves before I can do that so I'm going to keep my mouth shut about what I learn.:) Except for the animal shelters and animal rescuers in the area: they are angels and must be protected.
