Answer 3

i know you can do a natural, less harmful cleaner with water and vinegar. not sure exactly how much vinegar to mix in with the water but it works.

Answer 4

That's how i sanitise all my kitchen surfaces, tabletops, benches, cupboard shelves, door handles, bathroom and toilet .............  chemical free, very cheap and no nasty ingredients either to upset sensitive systems.

Eucalyptus oil used in an airspray will do the job for you buddy .........  its antibacterial and antiviral properties will sanitise and clean and help to keep germs at bay.

Put a capfull into a spray bottle, fill with warm water, shake well and use as a sanitiser or disinfectant for table tops, benches, door handles bathroom and toilet surfaces .......  naturally change the cloth or sponge for toilet surfaces.

Very usefull for cold and flus too... put a capfull of eucalyptus oil into a hot bath and soak in that for 15 - 20 minutes luxuriously inhaling the steamy wonderfull vapours.......... this will help enormously in loosening congestion and mucus from your chest and respiratory tract when you have a cold or flu......  actually simply a brain crystallizer and makes you feel fine at any time.........  just like a breath of fresh air it will also clear your mind and aid in concentration.

Put a few drops of eucalyptus oil also onto a hanky and lie it next to your pillow at night to help ease breathing if you are full up with a cold.

Caution ~ Do not use eucalyptus oil if you suffer from epilepsy or high blood pressure, or if you are pregnant or breast feeding ....... if either is the case simply substitute with tea tree oil which is also a brilliant antiviral and antibacterial.

Also, please don't use on infants or young children as their immature digestive and neural systems will be put at risk.

Also do not ingest any oil unless under the specific instructions of a naturopath or nutritionally oriented physician.

Organic & pure essential oils will always be the only choice too as the commercial varieties have had all the goodness pulverised from them and could never possibly have any therapeutic benefits.

hope this helps a bit.

cheers

Well go to www.mabelwhite.com She has e-books that show you how to do just about anything. I love her!

I sometimes wash the floors with 2 gallons warm water, a cup of white vinegar and two squirts of castille soap. You can add any fragrance or essential oil to it. Don't use on wood floors, though.
