How Do Quats Work?

A quats positive charge actually helps it bind to bacteria, virus, and other microorganisms that cause disease (all of which have a negative charge). By doing this, the germ's cell walls are disrupted which ultimately leads to its destruction. To completely disinfect or sanitize a surface, quats must be in contact with that surface for a certain length of time. This time varies depending on the product and application method, so always double-check the instructions on labels.
