  Set up the furniture and other items in a separate, airy room away from food preparation.
  Users of the spray equipment should wear protective masks and follow any safety instructions printed on the product label.

• 2

  Scrub stains from the fabric with soap and water before spraying. Repair tears or holes in the fabrics. Discard any item that cannot be repaired.

• 3

  Spray the fabric with Microban until it is completely wet, directing the spray at all the creases, crevices, buttons, tufts, folds and any other area that might harbor soil or pests. Spray the backs of each item. Allow the sprayed areas to remain wet for at least 10 minutes.

• 4

  Allow each item to dry thoroughly for at least 30 minutes. Many fabric-covered articles will require longer to dry. All disinfected items should be completely dry before being used.
