I use essential oils a lot to clean, repel pest, all kinds of things.
When deep cleaning I fill a bucket of warm water, add little mint oil & lavender. I clean all kinds of things- the counters, walls and floors. I also use a steamer. The scent of peppermint bugs and mice hate it. I sometimes put some in a spray bottle, hot water and spray along base boards, under counters and even in my barn. This year I'm planting all kinds of mint in the ground all around the barn. I hate rats.
I've recently received several large Himalayan Salt Lamps. Once is 25 pounds, the other smaller and in my bedroom. I am amazed how well it cleans the air and the energy it emits. Very calming and tranquil. I wish I had some this sooner.
I don't like to use chemicals on the floors. I don't want to inhale it nor so I want all the dogs stepping on it. We use plant based products to clean dog areas. You can also get a big big jar, put lots of orange peels, add white vinegar ( I also add mint) let it sit for a few days. It makes a very strong cleaner you can use directly for problems or add to mop water for a wonderful safe floor cleaner.
