Default Cleaning: natural or chemical/synthetic?

How do you like to clean (whether you’re just freshening up your office-desk or doing one of your characteristic Saturday morning cleans, if that’s the way you are)? Do you prefer to use more natural products (borax powder, washing-up liquid, essential oils - e.g., tea-tree, lemon, eucalyptus) or are you all about the commercial and the bleach-y?

Both in practice for moi but I prefer natural. Wouldn’t be without essential oils at this point, and neither would Kim and Aggie.

I agree, if the bottle doesn't recommend gloves then how do I know it's going to kill bacteria?

I can see where you’re coming from but still. You’ve got a lot to learn about the power of tea-tree.

So long as you’re getting off your bum and you’re scrubbing I guess all roads lead to Rome. Just remember to wear gloves.

I can safely say, I’ve never got a hard on while looking at essential oils.
