The US is in darkness, the rest is in light.
TMV could be a problem, I may not be so bright.
Using tobacco products may not be right,
depending on what country is in sight.

Ok Peter.
How is this for a thought.
If your chewing tobacco comes from KY or your seeds have a KYxxxx number on
it (KY in this case stands for Kentucky) don't worry about it.
If your chewing tobacco comes from the outback, Then simmer at about 200 F
98-99C for about 10 min. This inactivates (kills) TMV
Add dishoap to the spray, This also inactivates (kills) TMV.
99% of the sources I can find say that adding ethanol also inactivates TMV.
You have killed it 3 times isn't that enough?
