Go beyond aromatherapy! Harness the power of essential oils for keeping your home clean and fresh during cold and flu season. Use this multi-purpose spray on surfaces and touchpoints like kitchen counters, glass or tile tabletops, sinks, toilets, and doorknobs. *
Marlene’s carries a wonderful essential oil blend by Uncle Harry’s called Four Bandits Antigerm Blend. You could also use 55 drops of this blend in place of the suggested essential oils in this recipe.
- 20 drops organic clove bud essential oil
- 15 drops organic lemon essential oil
- 10 drops organic cinnamon essential oil
- 5 drops organic eucalyptus essential oil
- 5 drops organic tea tree essential oil
- 1/2 cup rubbing alcohol
- 1 1/2 cups distilled water
- 1 Tbl Dr. Bronner’s Liquid Castile Soap
- Add essential oils and alcohol to a glass spray bottle. Shake well to incorporate essential oils into alcohol. Add distilled water and castile soap. Shake again and let sit overnight to allow ingredients to meld together. Label and date (cleaning solution should be good for 1 year). Shake well before each use.
