9:1 (according to the guy that taught our CPR and Universal Precautions)

1TB bleach/1 Quart Water for DISINFECTING TOYS (Spray)

1TB bleach/1 Gallon Water for SANITIZING TOYS (soak 2 mins)

1/4 Cup bleach/1 Gallon Water for DISINFECTING AREAS (Spray tables, etc)

1 1/2 TB bleach/1 Gallon Water for SANITIZING DISHES (After washing)

How do you do it? Do you have multiple spray bottles? What's the easiest way to do all this?
Here we don't have different measures for dif items. It's either 1 TBSP to quart or 1/4c to a gallon. I have it in a sprayer (1TBL) for wiping tables, chairs, railing and doorknbs etc. But when I mop or disinfect toys in the sink things like that then I use the Gallon (1/4c)
