Peppermint Oil: Does It Work and How to Use It

| Chemical Free Cleaning Services | Homemade Cleaning Recipes & Tips

Peppermint oil boasts a sharp, revitalising menthol scent acclaimed for its robust antibacterial properties. Peppermint essential oil is a perfect complement to home-made cleaning products. Add a few drops to your home-made surface cleaners for areas that require additional antibacterial attention; for example, bathrooms and kitchens. As a bonus, peppermint is a powerful natural pest deterrent.

Peppermint oil blends wonderfully with a variety of oils, including basil, eucalyptus, grapefruit, lavender, lemon, myrrh, rosemary, spearmint and tea tree.

Produced from the Australian melaleuca tree, tea tree oil has a robust medicinal aroma and harbours potent antibacterial, antiseptic and antifungal properties. The ideal choice for home-made bathroom and floor cleaning solutions.

All mopped up and ready to go: Floor Cleaning Tips

| Chemical Free Cleaning Services | Homemade Cleaning Recipes & Tips | Uncategorized

Before beginning your mopping duties, check that the floor surface is free of dust and debris and has been thoroughly swept or vacuumed. Start by spot checking the area and treating any difficult scuffs or sticky stains before mopping.

If you are using a mop with a water barrel attached, fill the barrel with warm water and add a few drops of your favourite essential oil or home-made floor cleaner. If using a conventional mop, fill your bucket with your chosen cleaning formula and hot water.

Never over-wet or soak your mop head, always ring the head out thoroughly and use it slightly damp. Remember that less is more when mopping hardwood, tiles or vinyl floors.

Begin mopping at the farthest point away from the door and work your way out of the room so that you are always standing on a dry area.

Bust that dust: Dusting Tips

| Chemical Free Cleaning Services | Homemade Cleaning Recipes & Tips

While dusting, carry two microfibre cloths: a slightly dampened microfibre cloth and a dry microfibre cloth. First, dust everything with the damp cloth to capture the dust and prevent the particles from flicking up into the air and resettling on your gleaming surfaces. Second, use the dry microfibre cloth for objects that might need drying, and for buffing ornaments, picture frames, chrome and glass.

Remember to work from top to bottom and move around the room in a circular, clockwise direction.

When cleaning electronic equipment, ensure it is unplugged and never use an over-wet cloth. I find a dry microfibre cloth normally does the trick. If not, lightly spray your cloth with distilled water and rub gently. Do not forget to dust and vacuum behind the equipment, including all plugs and cords.

To clean dust from awkward nooks and crannies, use a soft-bristled paint brush and finish off with a damp microfibre cloth. Kitchen and laundry vents can be cleaned effortlessly with the vacuum attachments.
