There are particular blends of essential oils that are very effective in killing off bacteria. Bathrooms can harbour potentially dangerous strains of bacteria that are difficult to kill – even if you do use toxic chemicals – as over time they are becoming more resistant.
Cinnamon Leaf, Clove Bud and Tea Tree essential oils when combined become a serious force to be reckoned with, together with Green Goddess Premium White Vinegar they are anti-fungal, antiviral and antibacterial making this a powerful combination for the smallest room of the house.
DIY Bathroom Spray Cleaner
100ml Green Goddess Premium White Vinegar (double strength at 9.9 % acidity)
400ml Filtered water
1 ml Cinnamon Leaf Essential Oil
.5 ml Tea Tree Essential Oil
Mix together and put into a spray bottle, shake well and spray onto and around the toilet bowl, clean as usual. Be sure to shake the bottle before each use to ensure the oils are evenly distributed.
After cleaning the toilet with Peppermint Toilet Cleaner I then spray this cleaner around and up under the rim and wipe over any areas around the toilet, I also use this on the vanity and in the shower to give it a good clean clean and help to prevent mould spores from growing.
