Cons
The manufacturer of Dr. Blaine’s Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray claims that this product can destroy 99.9% of foot fungus and bacteria on contact.

What’s in Dr. Blaine’s Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray?
The active ingredient in Dr. Blaine’s Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray is undecylenic acid. This substance, when found in the right concentration, is clinically proven to treat and eliminate fungal infections. A concentration of 25% is the strongest concentration available for topical use. This spray only provides a concentration of 5% undecylenic acid perhaps rendering it less effective than competing brands of foot spray.

There are no instructions on how to use the product on the company’s website. On Amazon, it says spray 2 bursts of the product directly into the shoe, or onto the affected area of the foot 2 to 3 times a week. Also spray onto athletic gear after each use, or as needed. One bottle provides up to 500 doses.
The Cost

Is There a Guarantee?
Despite the website and label stating that there is 100% guarantee, we were unable to find specific details regarding length of time you have to return the spray or if you can return an opened bottle.
The Conclusion of Our Dr. Blaine’s Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray Review
There were several things that we liked about Dr Blaine’s Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray. The product comes in an easy to use spray bottle and is claimed to kill 99.9% of foot fungus and bacteria. However, we also came across many things we do not like about the product. In terms of active ingredients, the product contains a very low concentration of undecylenic acid. The clinically proven concentration is 25%, whereas this product only contains 5%. This may cause the product to be ineffective. Despite the website and label stating that there is 100% guarantee, we were unable to find specific details regarding length of time you have to return the spray or if you can return an opened bottle. Also, the manufacturer does not offer any discounts for first time buyers nor bulk buyers nor dies it include free shipping. The manufacturer’s website does not explain how to use the spray. On reading the reviews of the product we saw that although some people found the spray useful, many others stated that the spray bottle ran out quicker than expected, and was not so effective at treating fungus infections nor preventing future flare ups. Lastly, the spray was priced very high at $19.99, and we suggest shipping around for a similar product at a more reasonable price. For these reasons, we are not recommending Tineacide Antifungal Foot & Shoe Spray.
