Then eBay removed that listing for gouging. I ordered something from a different seller whose listing was also deleted but that person got my order in the mail quickly and it's on the way.

I feel like a collaborator in Vichy France, but all the experts are telling us to disinfect up to three times a day and I can't use my diluted bleach solution on all surfaces.

Have you experienced similar dilemmas or lines you're not willing to cross?
I do not understand why you need to disinfect 3 times a day if no one or nothing is coming into your home or you are not going out. Do you live with a spouse or another person? Pets? You can disinfect once a day and wash your hands before eating and cooking.
