Easy way for guests to disinfect shoes?

[Nicky S]

We are hosting a party over the weekend, and some people coming are also chicken owners. My guys free range part of the time in the whole garden, so I was wondering if there is a safe and easy way for people to disinfect their shoes when they arrive (and leave if they have chickens)? I don't want to have trays of bleach about, I was thinking more something like Microban spray...is there anything that would work? Many thanks!

Peracetic acid wipes? So they can wipe underneath their shoes with it

If not trays to step thru (like they have for zoo volunteers), how about making up a fresh bottle of bleach/water (you'd have to research the ratio) and spray on shoes?

Booties!! like what you get in a hospital. Otherwise I would do the bleach/water similar solution to what they clean toys with at daycares

Yes, I think I'd be a bit worried about people's clothes with the bleach spray, but maybe I can set up a tray to step in! Thank you!

Lysol spray.

Lysol spray.

That's what I was originally thinking - wanted to check that it would do the trick! Thanks

I had a tab with a list of sanitizers/disinfectants for HPAI from the USDA. Lysol was on the list. I will try to find it again.
