Excellent! I've learned something new. Thank you! I've been reading up on TMV. Been working to stay safe and keep the tools and such separate. Had no clue bout the milk 'cure'.
Since i am a smoker of cigarettes, I have been extra cautious, especially sine I was also working retail.
The diary wash goes back a few years, to render the tobacco mosiac virus (TMV) inert, maybe into the 70's,
but never had a plant returned, nor contracted the TMV
I have used full milk and 2 % milk as anti-virus agent. No difference but not wiped off, just eventually dry during gardening persuits.
