These days we are all concerned about decontamination. . . seeing it in my doctor's office, convinced me to get rid of every other cleaner I owned. Now I have Thieves Household Cleaner (THHC), baking soda and essential oils - that's it!
Here's What To Do:
In a glass or PETE plastic spray bottle, mix Thieves Household Cleaner (THHC) with water according to the directions on the bottle. This all purpose cleaner can be used for just about everything! Literally!

For the hurried cleaner. . . simply have 2 dilutions of Thieves Household Cleaner - the weakest and strongest found on the back of the THHC bottle. The weakest for glass and stainless steel and the strongest for most everything else. Keep these two spray bottles and a shaker of baking soda (I love this one). Also, for when you have a sticky mess, a bottle of Lemon essential oil, and you're good to go!
I used to have cupboards and cupboards of cleaning supplies. I spent hundreds of dollars on them!! This saves me so much money and I have 100% confidence my cleaning supplies are safe and effective.
