Is it true that three percent hydrogen peroxide solution kills bacteria on household surfaces?
Unclear. Three sources partially support the claim: a reference article notes hydrogen peroxide has broad antibacterial efficacy and that 3% works against most spores, a StackExchange answer cites 3% peroxide as an effective disinfectant on inanimate surfaces, and a clinic page says peroxide kills germs on household surfaces but recommends a 50/50 dilution. None directly tests 3% peroxide against bacteria on household surfaces at full strength.
