What do airlines clean the planes with each night?

 
I've been visiting with military pilots who are going fishing in our town, and staying with us.

It reminded me of this thread, and I think I'll ask them if they remember a time when their eyes burned & hurt when they got behind the cockpit (One is now a commercial airline pilot)

... or if they remember getting the 'sniffles?'

the following being added to 'the use of premises guidelines' for any of our day rentals or long term rentals:

To stay in one of our rental units - Long term or Short term - We ask that you do not spray hazardous products inside, such as silicone spray or any other spray products (propellants can be health hazardous). In particular, do not use products that have an EPA registration number (Fantastik, Lysol Tub'n Tile) as it usually means there is a pesticide component such as BUTYL which causes autoimmune issues and cancers. Worst exposure is getting the vapors in your eyes ... affecting children and pets as well as adults.

Do not use fingernail polish as such products contain DI-butyl & cuticle areas are also a serious route for this chemical's exposure

Actually, if I were a pilot, I would want to know what cleaning products were used in the cockpit ... & don't let them use any spray products or any with an EPA registration number.

If there is an outbreak of 'flu' among the passengers, I would first ask what cleaning products were used ...

and I would start insisting that passengers take a breath-alyzer test prior to boarding ... to see if they are giving off this chemical's poisoning in their respiration (second hand solvent exposure for those they sit near)
