List N: EPA’s Registered Antimicrobial Products for Use Against Novel Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2, the Cause of COVID-19
Date: 03/03/2020
An individual pesticide product may be marketed and sold under a variety of names. If you are seeking additional information about a pesticide product, refer to the EPA Registration Number (EPA Reg. No.), found on the product label, not the brand name. When purchasing a product for use against a specific pathogen, check the EPA Reg. No. versus the products included on this list.
All EPA-registered pesticides must have an EPA Registration Number. Alternative brand names have the same EPA Reg. No. as the primary product. The EPA Reg. No. of a primary product consists of two set of numbers separated by a hyphen, for example EPA Reg. No. 12345-12. The first set of numbers refers to the company identification number, and the second set of numbers following the hyphen represents the product number.
In addition to primary products, distributors may also sell products with identical formulations and identical efficacy as the primary products. Although distributor products frequently use different brand names, you can identify them by their three-part EPA Reg. No. The first two parts of the EPA Reg. No. match the primary product, plus a third set of numbers that represents the Distributor ID number. For example, EPA Reg. No. 12345-12-2567 is a distributor product with an identical formulation and efficacy to the primary product with the EPA Reg. No. 1234512.
Information about listed products is current as indicated by the dates on this list. If you would like to review the product label information for any of these products, please visit our product label system. Inclusion on this list does not constitute an endorsement by EPA.

EPA releases list of disinfectants effective against coronavirus
Nick Viviani 2 hrs ago
WASHINGTON (WMTV) – The Environmental Protection Agency has released a list of disinfectants that should be effective against the coronavirus behind this year’s deadly outbreak.
“Using the correct disinfectant is an important part of preventing and reducing the spread of illnesses along with other critical aspects such as hand washing,” EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler said.
The full list runs several pages and includes products from common brands like Lysol, Clorox, and Purell. The EPA points out that coronaviruses are among the easiest types of viruses to kill with disinfectants. The agency simply reminds people to follow the directions on the packaging and to pay close attention to how long the product sits on a treated surface.
“EPA is providing this important information in a public and transparent manner on disinfectant products to help reduce the spread of COVID-19,” Wheeler continued.
The EPA explained it created the list through its Emerging Viral Pathogen program, in which disinfectant makers tell agency officials in advance of any outbreaks what their products are effective against and provide data to back up the claim.
