Why get hysterical about hand sanitizer?

Joe, I don't think any of us are hysterical. The reason I posted was as a warning. If your child is able to reach the product while your back is turned, one squirt could make the child sick. That was my only intent. Just as you wouldn't leave a mouse trap or ant poison or a bottle of vino within reach - this was just a caution. Because one might not even think that it could be harmful. I wouldn't want to be responsible for a child falling ill or worse because I was not aware of this threat.   

I went to the Dial hand sanitizer site-they stressed that the product is meant to kill germs. It is not meant to take the place of soap,water & a good scrub.So your instincts were correct to not place it near the sinks in Ladies Room.

I tried every way to find the ingredients of the Dial product. One would assume that info would be easy to find. It is NOT! I could not believe all the info that they want if one contacts by email. They have nerve to ask the family income. That is ridiculous!

Thank you all who posted the info. on the various forms of alcohol. Much appreciated.
