10 uses for Jeyes Fluid
You might think that only the inside of your house needs cleaning. After all, your garden is exposed to the elements, so it must be impossible to prevent bacteria growth. However, this is far from the truth. Water butts and wheelie bins may harbour germs that could potentially cause a lot of harm, and there are many other surfaces that may need disinfecting once you've started a family and your children are allowed to play outdoors.
In recent years, Jeyes Fluid has become the household name for outdoors disinfecting. You may even have bought a bottle, but aren't sure the huge number of uses it has. Keep reading to find out why that little bottle in your hand is invaluable to any homeowner.
- Odourise drains - We've all noticed a sharp, lingering, sewage-like smell emanating from our garden drain. Jeyes Fluid can be used neat to eliminate nasty odours and kill bacteria.
- Clean water butts - Over time water butts suffer from build up of germs that can have harmful effects on the quality of the collected water. Instead of buying a new one, Jeyes Fluid can disinfect your water butt and return it to its original condition.
- Disinfect patios - If you have a dog, you'll know how annoying it is when they foul your patio. But it's more than annoying, as faeces can harbour very harmful bacteria. This may become particularly dangerous if you have small children playing in your garden. Remove the risk by properly cleaning with Jeyes Fluid to ensure all pathogens are killed.
- Clean wheelie bins - Your wheelie bin gets a lot of use and years of storing your waste can take its toll. Bacteria is one concern, maggots are another. Every couple of months ensure your wheelie bin is bacteria-free by washing it out properly with diluted Jeyes Fluid.
- Clean greenhouses - Years in the sun leaves its mark on any greenhouse - from cobwebs and mould to algae and germs. If you've got some spare time, disinfect your green house and give it a new lease of life - your plants will certainly be happier!
- Clear paths - Weeds, algae and mould can soon make a path look its age. Jeyes Fluid revamps walkways, disinfecting them at the same time. For a really amazing result, combine the use of Jeyes fluid with effective pressure washing.
- Disinfect animal housing - If you've ever cleaned a hutch, you'll know how disgusting they can get over time, and how many germs they can harbour! Jeyes Fluid can kill all these germs, ensuring your rabbit or guinea pig continues to live in a clean, suitable environment.
- Disinfect stables - If you own horses you know what a horrific disease Strangles can be. Jeyes Fluid successfully kills streptococcus equi, the bacterium which causes Strangles, offering you and your horses invaluable peace of mind.
- Farm cleaning - Cattle stalls and piggeries will benefit greatly from a regular clean with Jeyes Fluid. Not only will it help you maintain comfortable and clean conditions but will reduce the chance of your produce becoming contaminated during storage or transfer.
- Killing avian flu - Jeyes Fluid is effective against strains of bird flu, so if you need to specifically protect against avian flu (due to the presence of immuno-suppressed people, for example), Jeyes Fluid is a great choice.

Great tips! This is very informative. As an owner of a cleaning company based in London and I can't tell you enough how much my Cleaners like this product. Thanks
When I do a dog traiining session in my yard, i often have in excess of 10+ dogs. You can guess what happens. Out comes the jeyes fluid.
