Use this blend in the rinsing water for floors and rubbish bins. As it is antiseptic it is good for soaking cloths in, preferably overnight, after cleaning or washing up.

• 20 drops eucalyptus essential oil
• 20 drops rosemary essential oil
• 14 drops thyme essential oil
• 20 drops buchu leaf essential oil
• 6 drops clove bud essential oil
• 10 drops peppermint essential oil

Put the oils in a small dark bottle, preferably one with a dropper. Shake well and label. Make sure it is kept out of reach of small children.

You may need other cleaning products to remove food from work surfaces, but to destroy invisible bacteria dilute 25 drops of your All Purpose Antiseptic Blend in 500 ml of water, wring out a cloth in the water and wipe over the cleaned surfaces. You can soak your cloths in it too.
