Household bleach is a single ammonium and destroys a respectable number of fungi and a few bacteria-born viruses.
Triple-ammonia compounds like Physan-20 and Nacossan have a broader range.
Liqui-Cop is a Copper Ammonium complex sold under the Monterey Lawn and Garden Products brand. The additional presence of copper gives it the widest range of these three and is still very safe for food crops. The copper also is bad news for any mollusks (snails, slugs) that might be lurking about.
