Since everyone is at home during the COVID pandemic I am having the most difficult time finding BORAX and Baking soda in the store. I know that folks are baking more and prob cleaning too but i can’t find it anywhere! Is this the case in Canada too?

Hi Melissa,

Which do you think will pickup off the floor the most debris? Microfiber cloth or Swiffer cloth.
I know that advocate microfiber cloths for cleaning. But which picks up the most off the floor?
Please advise. Best wishes for a wonderful week.

Saw you on the Social on January 1. You had something for odour suppresion – coffee grounds, baking soda and activated charcoal. I was on the Social’s webpage, but no where does it say how many parts of coffee grounds, baking soda and activated charcoal you use to to create this?

When we put dish-soap in a spray bottle with water, is there a concern with germies/bacteria growing in there with out a preservative? Have your book, love it, and grateful for your work!

Another money saving option for foaming hand soap is to buy regular hand soap and dilute it with water in your foaming dispensers. I use between 1/3 soap with 2/3 water and 1/4 soap with 3/4 water. I don’t measure precisely because I have figured out how to use the design on my dispenser as fill lines to get the proportions right. This will work with any hand soap except the kind with moisturizers in it that give it a shimmering look.

Hi Melissa. Love your videos and website! Can rubbing alcohol be used instead of cheap vodka in the DIY room freshener? Thanks you.

Your recipe for towel bowel cleaner is a natural “skunk smell remover”. It neutralizes the enzymes in skunk spray. What does this mean to us who don’t play with skunks? It’s also great at removing pet accident smells and stains. I have personally used it to remove cat urine smell from a couch AND rotten food smell from the carpet of my car when frozen meat item leaked juice on the way home. Yuck I know. Life happens to us all. It’s also a great fabric stain remover. I’ve used it to get stains out of carpet, my couch, and my dining room seat cushions (life with kids is messy).
