Leonard, Sterilizing virus contaminated tools. The following is taken from a University of Connecticut article:
"To remove contamination of most viruses from tools, they can be soaked in quaternary ammonium compounds or hydrogen dioxide. Soak the tools for at least one minute. Propagators need to soak their cutting tools on a regular basis, after use on each stock plant or defined area."
