Pine-Sol?
I've not seen Jeyes here - I tend to use Greenworks but it depends what you want to use it for.
In Canada, or that UK based one?
Edited to add, I wonder if this would be similar? http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/sp...-0390467p.html - it gets rave reviews for cleaning/disinfecting just about anything - including laundry!

Re: Jeyes Fluid
British corner shop does have it but the delivery cost is too much. That CT spray thing would do the job though. Some creatures spent the winter in our garden shed and were a rather intemperate in their bathroom habits.
I'll miss the smell of Jeyes though. I'll as at the Peterbrough UK shop to see if they can get it in.

A similar smell but stronger disinfectant resulted in the only time that I told a patient to leave his footwear on the doorstep outside the building. He worked in a chicken battery farm and wandered in with wellies which, I think in most countries would be classified as chemical weapons..they literally made your eyes water.

Re: Jeyes Fluid
It's probably a Regulated substance in Canada due to the creosote content.
Creosote is carcinogenic and that's why you can't buy it in the UK (for example) to paint fences with any more.

Re: Jeyes Fluid
Jeyes is a pesticide (and that's the warning label you will find on a can of it) - it's 30% creosote, with pine oil, tar oil, meths and about 40% water.

Re: Jeyes Fluid
That one from crappy tire is both a disinfectant and cleaner, I was reading the reviews on it, pleasantly surprised (and it has an odour, so might keep the critters at bay while you are at it!).
