THE ULTIMATE THIEVES CLEANER GUIDE
This is the only cleaner we use; the green cleaning, unicorn game changing, easy button.
We add one capful Thieves Cleaner & a few extra drops of lemon essential oil to this spray bottle & go to town on everything: counters, appliances, kids toys, dog kennel, exercise equipment, carpet stains, glass, toilets, sinks, showers, car interior, floors of all kinds, you name it. Plus you can use it to make scrubbing pastes, hand soap, laundry detergent & any other healthy home DIY you can think of!
Cleaning cabinets simplified, no more hoarding eleven different bottles from three different stores. I don’t have to worry about what I’m exposing my kids or dog to, my head & lungs are a thousand times happier & healthier, it cleans better than anything & it smells like Christmas. I don’t know how something this good exists, but it does & we give thanks.
