Antifungal solution and wipe
A wipe has a substrate, a treatment solution impregnated into the substrate, the treatment solution including an antifungal agent, an antifungal agent solvent, and a carrier fluid, wherein the treatment solution is essentially free of alcohol. A treatment solution, has an antifungal agent, an antifungal agent solvent, and a carrier fluid, wherein the treatment solution has an alcohol content of 6 wt % or below of the total solution.
