Time for a deep clean!

Time for a deep clean!

We don’t know about you, but each day at the moment is challenging our family to find silver linings in the situation we all share.

Keeping safe and healthy is paramount, and it’s important for our mental as well as physical health that our homes feel as clean and inviting as possible during these testing times.

Increased family time for many of us means increased household cleaning and maintenance, and I guess one bonus of all this additional time at home is the chance to tackle all the cleaning tasks we’re usually too busy to do.

Oven. Fridge. Shower. Doors frames and doors. Floors that wouldn’t usually get a look-in, including the bits under the beds. You may have an over-energised workforce on your hands, so put the kids to work too!

Get cracking with our multi-purpose kitchen and bathroom cleaners. I use them on just about any surface.The fragrances of peppermint, eucalyptus, mandarin and lemon myrtle will soon banish any stale odours and make your home smell fresh and clean – naturally, as our formulas contain absolutely nothing that’s toxic.

Remember, our Floor Cleaner works well on a variety of surfaces, including wood. And if you want to spritz up your linens, just mist some of our Room and Linen Spray in your cupboards. The spray contains Pink Grape fruit and Peppermint essential oils: perfect for freshening and deoderising.
