Does Cleaning Inanimate Objects With Dettol Prevent Fungal Infections?

Question about Tinea Manuum, I wore a pair of gloves for biking, I want to make sure each time after I use them I kill any spore/ ringworm on those gloves and can use them next time without having potential spores/ringworm on them. Currently I am doing a ringworm treatment with cream, but I use these gloves on a daily basis, so my question is will washing those gloves in with Dettol kill the possible spores/ringworm on there ?
