Thieves Spring Cleaning Tips

Spring is here - are you ready for some sunshine and fresh air? Winter certainly has its wonders. But unfortunately, indoor allergens can rise to all-time highs during winter months when houses are kept warmer and are well sealed against the cold air. All that dust and grime that accumulate inside our homes make for an unhealthy environment.

Now that warmer weather is here! How can you bottle all that fragrant crispness of springtime and create a cleaner, healthier home environment? Here are five super tips that will make your spring cleaning a breeze!
  1. Before you clean, gather all your essential supplies. Prepare one pail that you can carry with you throughout the house. (Kids love to help, so be sure to have their supplies ready as well.) Your cleaning pail should contain a bottle of Thieves Household Cleaner, an empty spray bottle, Purification essential oil blend, a few rags, and empty garbage bags.


  2. Make a plan by deciding which room to tackle first. Next, select your favorite air-purifying essential oil and diffuse it throughout your home while you are cleaning. (Spring favorites include fresh aromas of lemon, orange, and Citrus Fresh.) Now turn on fun, upbeat music, and you're ready to clean!


  3. Start the laundry (including all bedding, towels and curtains), and be sure to add a capful (or 1 teaspoon) of Thieves Household Cleaner to each load for added freshness. While the laundry is washing, you'll be able to work in other rooms of the house.


  4. For each room you work in, fill your pail with hot water and Thieves Household Cleaner. (See the label for recommended dilution ratios.) Dip your rag in, wring out excess water, and wipe walls, doors, tile and linoleum floors, and vinyl blinds. Thieves Household Cleaner is excellent on most surfaces (especially in bathrooms and kitchen), and is truly safe since it's free of toxic chemicals.

    For areas that may need the additional power of Purification (you know, those really yucky areas where there are hard water stains, mold, or unpleasant odors), pour 4-5 drops of Purification in your spray bottle and mix with water. Then spray in the air or directly on surfaces. This method is especially useful for washing out trash cans.


  5. Finish your spring cleaning by vacuuming, dusting, and putting laundry away. By adding essential oils to your vacuuming and dusting as well, your home will have a lovely, refreshing scent in every room.


  6. After such serious springtime scrubbing, remember to reward yourself (and the kids too if they helped!). You will enjoy peace of mind knowing that you have created a clean, fresh-smelling environment for your family to relax and live in, and that you are doing all that you can to protect the health of your loved ones.
