Title: I need answers..
Post by: Terbs on 04 May 2016, 15:02:53
After seeing an ad on the tele...I need a question answered. 
If Dettol and Harpic, etc, kill 99% of household germs, are they all killing the same 99%. If not, why don't they pool their resources and and kill the last 1%.
And whilst I am at it.....if you pull the wings off a fly, is it then a walk, and....
Why don't cat food manufacturers make bird or mouse flavoured food.

Just asking, like :)

The reality is that they kill 100% of germs. But they can't prove it, and if they claim 100% and a new super germ survives (or more likely someone just misses a bit so some survive) then they end up in court trying to prove a negative. So easier to just claim they kill 99.9% of germs.

I'm sure this bit of light reading will help with the answers:
