🧼 Everything You Need to Know About Zoflora: Safety, Usage & Surprising Tips

Zoflora is fast becoming a household name in South Africa for those looking for powerful, beautifully fragranced disinfectants that are both effective and versatile. At Cleanr, we stock a premium range of Zoflora Concentrates, Ready-to-Use Sprays, and accessories that transform your cleaning routine into something truly special.

Below we answer some of the top questions people are asking about Zoflora in SA:

🐶 Are Zoflora candles safe for dogs?

This is a great and thoughtful question — because many households are concerned about pets and exposure to cleaning products or fragrance.

➡️ Zoflora does not manufacture candles, but people may be referring to the lingering scent left behind after using Zoflora products like our 500ml Concentrate or Ready-To-Use Spray.

Zoflora, when used correctly (i.e., diluted as instructed and used in ventilated areas), is generally considered safe around pets — once surfaces are dry.

⚠️ Never allow pets to walk on wet surfaces, and always store products out of reach.

😷 Are Zoflora fumes harmful?

Zoflora is a concentrated disinfectant and contains fragrance oils and biocidal agents designed to kill germs and bacteria. Like with all cleaning products, Zoflora fumes can be irritating if inhaled directly or used in poorly ventilated spaces.

To stay safe:

Always dilute according to instructions.
Avoid inhaling directly.
Use in well-ventilated areas, and leave windows open where possible.

✅ Fun fact: Once diluted, Zoflora is safe enough for kitchens and baby changing areas!

🧺 Can Zoflora be used in laundry?

Absolutely — and it’s a hidden gem tip for making your laundry smell amazing and killing bacteria in the process.

🌀 Add a capful (about 10ml) of Zoflora to your laundry rinse cycle (never directly on clothes) to:

Freshen smelly gym gear or pet bedding.
Disinfect towels or dishcloths.
Leave a long-lasting scent.

🛁 Can Zoflora be used for bathing?

No — Zoflora is not meant for personal use or skin contact. It’s a disinfectant, not a bath additive, even if it smells like a spa!

🚫 Never use Zoflora in a bath, foot soak, or skin treatment. It's safe for surfaces only.

If you’re looking for spa-like vibes, try using it to clean your bathroom floors, bins, or even your toilet bowl using our Toilet Rim Block + Microfibre Cloth Combo.

🌱 Are Zoflora wipes vegan?

Zoflora has stated that many of its products are not tested on animals, but full vegan certification can vary depending on the range. At Cleanr, we recommend checking individual fragrance ranges for vegan-friendly claims.

Currently, we do not stock Zoflora wipes in our South African store — but our concentrate and spray lines remain a customer favorite.
