I have always understood that any disinfectant that turned water white when
it was added to it was extremely bad for any animal and could eventually
cause the death of animal exposed to it.
I fail to understand why people would want to risk the lives of their pets
by using these kinds of disinfectants when there are pet safe ones readily
available such as Virkon and Hibiscrub.
