Disinfectant ?'s-need help quickly

[Guest guest]

Hi guys!

I need to make a disinfectant spray for my bathrooms & kitchen & I can't

use bleach or other spray disinfectants b/c of my asthma. I thought

about using rubbing alcohol with maybe some tea tree & /or lemon myrtle

in a 16 oz sprayer, but I don't know how much eo's to use. Any

suggestions??

 

Thanks for any help!

Always in faith,

Hi Kati,

 

I've used a small 4 oz spray bottle and filled it with about 15 drops or so of

lemon. Works great for me and I love the smell!! With your suggestion I'm

gonna add about 12 drops of myrtle too. I love myrtle, especially if I have a

cold/cough. It's the best for me! I'm not as big into melaleuca as others are,

but I did use it on a burn when I was down in Australia a few years ago and it

was great!

 

Wishing you well in all ways,

 

Lynn

Kati,

I use Lemongrass( 5 drops)and Tea-Tree( 6 drops) in a 16oz spray mister

in my bath and kitchen, it is great! I clean my tile floors with 3 drops of

Lemongrass and we do not have insects, bugs and any of the other wonderful

creatures in nature coming in.

Lemongrass __ chemical constituents: Monoterpene aldehydes (60-85%),

citrals (75%), neral (27%) and Geranial(46%). This is all I can think of at

this time with out my print out in front of me.

PROPERTIES: analgesic, anti-flammatory, antiseptic, insect repellent,

revitalizer, sedative, tonic and vasodialtor.

Be careful as it can also cause skin irritation, although I have not

experienced this and I use it all the time!

Hope this helps, take care!
