Default Disinfectant etc

Hi there,
please can anyone tell me if you are able to buy alcohol wipes, gels & sprays in Bali, and if so, where is the best place.
I'm not sure if I need to bring some with me (for my very OCD affected wife!)

kind regards
Andy

Default Disinfectant

Hi,

You can certainly buy disinfectant and antiseptic. As far as the specific products you want I'm not sure exactly what is available but I would say that the supermarkets, the apotiks and the many circle K stores will sell what you're after.

I'd suggest that you take a "starter kit" of a few things to keep you going until you can buy extras when you are there.

The Circle K convenience stores are everywhere. There is a big supermarket, The Bintang Supermarket, on Jl. Legian in Seminyak. Everyone knows so you can ask for the location or jump in a taxi (Blue taxis are best) and they will take you there.

You can buy dettol and other antiseptics together with household disinfectants in larger quantities. I always take hand soap with me as I prefer the old fashioned methods of hand washing. The hand wipes and hand sanitising gels are fine but I do like to wash my hands with soap and water too.

Good luck

Catherine
