Hello, rabbi
Do cleaning products need kashrut for Passover?
It seems ridiculous to me to buy kosher bleach for Passover if bleach is used to destroy crumbs of leaven…
Thank you
Hello and blessings
In fact, cleaning products that are not fit for consumption, and that even a dog wouldn’t eat, do not need certification for Passover, because even if they are chametz, they are not prohibited.
Although one should not mock those who buy kosher cleaning products for Passover, as the custom of the people of Israel is to be strict and seek all stringency and good practice to distance themselves from the remote fear of chametz during Passover, as written in the Shulchan Aruch, one should not mock those who make an effort to clean the walls for Passover.
Sincerely
PLEASE NOTE*
Attention: You should not learn from one case to another, each case must be analyzed individually. Generally speaking, it's always best to have contact with a Rabbi in person, not just virtual contact. Note that where there is a local Rabbi("Mara Deatra"), one should ask him. The answers are under the responsibility of the rabbi who responded, and not under the responsibility of the website and/or the Head of the Institution.
