Best bacteria-cide and fungicide ever invented. And cheap as chips (about $1 a kilo) and non-allergenic. I use salt to disinfect my cloth bags for meat purchases and have never had a problem. I wasn't kidding about salt water getting out blood stains.

I have a big bag of cooking salt that's sat open and unused for years so I might move it to the bathroom/laundry

Cooking salt is the pure salt. Table salt has iodine in it to stop us all getting big thyroid glands. Cooking salt is perfect for disinfecting.
