Answer:

I remember back in high school I conducted an experiment involving two Petri-dishes. Both had swabs from my kitchen sink (a lot of bacteria). The difference was that I used Lysol versus Clorox.

You can start here. Secondly, formulate a good hypothesis and test it. For example, you can say I believe Lysol works better than "X-Brand" or "Y-Brand".

Then list the results.

I hope this helps.
