The Historical Use of Silver
Naturally antibacterial and antimicrobial, silver has been an effective repellent since 1300BC. When applied properly, positively charged silver ions are attracted to negatively charged bacteria. The ions attack the bacteria's DNA, and disrupt its respiration, cell division, and replication processes. (In short, this means that it creates an environment in which bacteria can't grow)
