What household items can be used to disinfect a cut?

Its late at dark and I can feel a cut which I get yesterday is infected. I have squeezed out as much juice as possible and reopened the cut on my finger and cleaned it out with soap and a pin brush. Is lemon juice or baking soda or some other adjectives household item useful as a disinfectant?What household items can be used to disinfect a cut?
Plain soap and marine is all that you call for to clean your cut. You can use Peroxide to initially verbs your wound but do not keep using is as it will start to remove the 'good bacteria'. (DO NOT USE BLEACH!! That will just burn your skin and add to the problem.) Once it is verbs, you can use some antibiotic ointment, if you enjoy it, and then cover near clean dressing. Redress day after day or if it should get dirty. See your physician if you really have a sneaking suspicion that it is infected..extremely red around wound, pus coming from wound, extreme pain and/or restlessness.
Any spirit, whisky, gin etc or vinegar!
Bleach will work
Honey makes a great disinfectant. In laboratory studies it be found to be as effective as most antibiotics. It works by dehydrating the microbes causing the infection.
In like peas in a pod order of nouns,
Dettol,
Savlon,
Liquor,
Good luck!
