Even though most detergents inactivate bacteria and fungus, most infections do not come from your clothes. Staphylococcus aureus is easily destroyed in a hot soapy wash, but most of the time it is living under your fingernails and in your nasal passages. Talk to your doctor about ways to limit its growth in those places and you will see improvement. Good luck.

All detergents are bactericidal(staphylococcus)fungicidal and even viricidal.Keep the clothes or utensils in contact for 1/2 hr for good results.
