Dermatophytosis is a superficial fungal skin disease of animals. A key part of treatment is cleaning and disinfection of the environment to prevent false-positive results due to fomite carriage. Furthermore, there is a perception in the lay literature that decontamination of homes is difficult or impossible.
Data from a 10 year period identified 70 foster family homes where Microsporum canis infected cats had lived for varying periods of time. Mechanical debris was removed from the rooms housing the cats, the areas cleaned with over-the-counter household detergents, rinsed and hard surfaces disinfected with 1:100 concentration household bleach or accelerated hydrogen peroxide. Thirty-eight homes were completely decontaminated after one cleaning post removal or cure of the cat. Of the remaining homes, decontaminated was achieved after one (n=28), two (n=2) or three (n=1) additional cleanings. Complete decontamination was not possible in one home; the foster family was admittedly noncompliant. There was no evidence of disease transmission to other animals or people.
Environmental decontamination is not difficult in homes exposed to M. canis and can be accomplished with established procedures.
皮肤癣菌病是一种动物的浅表真菌性皮肤病。治疗的关键部分是对环境进行清洁和消毒，以防止由于污染物携带导致的假阳性结果。此外，通俗文献中有一种观点认为，家庭环境的去污很难或不可能实现。
一项为期10年的数据研究确定了70个寄养家庭，其中感染犬小孢子菌的猫在这些家庭中生活了不同的时间段。清除了养猫房间内的机械碎片，用非处方家用洗涤剂清洁这些区域，冲洗后用1:100浓度的家用漂白剂或加速过氧化氢对硬表面进行消毒。在猫被移除或治愈后进行一次清洁后，38个家庭被完全去污。在其余的家庭中，经过一次（n = 28）、两次（n = 2）或三次（n = 1）额外清洁后实现了去污。有一个家庭无法完全去污；寄养家庭承认未遵守规定。没有疾病传播给其他动物或人的证据。
在接触犬小孢子菌的家庭中，环境去污并不困难，可以通过既定程序完成。
