Green Cleaning with Essential Oils



Did you know you can also use doTERRA oils to clean. We have loved to make our own cleaner and use that around the house. If you breathe it in or it gets on your hands it will make you healthier instead of introduce toxins that will damage your health. Here are some of the ideas from the doTERRA blog site. My favorite is adding lemon to water or to another all natural cleaner, but I still have yet to try these.

All-Purpose Cleaner

2 c. vinegar
2 c. distilled water
10 drops Lemon Essential Oil
Tip: Shake well before each use.
Mirror or Window Cleaner
1 1/2 c. vinegar
1/2 c. purified or distilled water
8 drops ANY Citrus Essential Oil of choice
Shake well before use.
Mold and Mildew Cleaner
Pour 2 c. distilled white vinegar into a spray bottle. (OR combine one part 3% hydrogen peroxide with 2 parts water).
Add 2 drops Lemon Essential Oil and 2 drops Melaleuca Essential Oil
Shake well and spray on area. Leave on area for half an hour, then rinse.
