Vacuum carpet daily. Shampoo carpet as needed. Rinse with white vinegar after shampooing the carpet, this removes any residue, smells are removed , and is a natural disinfectant. Allow to dry.

Peppermint essential oil added to floor cleaner will help deter bugs, spiders, and smells clean

All your suggestions are very good. I will be trying most of these thank you

I use eucalyptus oil, it’s great and smells incredible, however it’s become very expensive here in Australia. 🇦🇺 I’m looking for a cheaper natural version.

Wow that's awesome. I use baking soda and vinegar in water and mop

If you have pets, please don't use these homemade recipes without doing your due diligence. Some of the ingredients used in these recipes, such as mothballs, may be toxic to animals. Additionally, do not use pots, cutting boards, bowls, etc. to prepare food once they've been used to make these recipes. Most of the ingredients seem harmless enough because they're natural but chemical reactions can occur which could make them toxic to humans and / or animals. Lastly, some of these recipes could damage certain surfaces, especially porous surfaces, so test in a small inconspicuous area before using for the first time.

What is Zoflora??? I have never heard of it 😊have a blessed weekend😊

Very interesting , can't believe how good these things work. So why are we buying household products?

I own a cleaning business. This is way too many ingredients for cleaning floors. Also, the cleaner can be placed in a spray bottle. 🤦‍♂️

Can we use these methods on marble flooring, pl.reply.

In addition to what you shouldn’t use: CINNAMON! It can be deadly to cats.

Cinnamon will stain my grout due to tiled floors

This is highly poisonous to animals.

Yes, moth balls are notorious for their unpleasant long lasting odor

Are all these hacks safe for pets?

Cinnamon does not dissolve, it’s gonna leave a powdery residue Hate the smell of mothballs, I’ve noticed Asian people use it a lot and enjoy the smell, it’s repugnant to me and most I know
