Eucalyptus oil has long been known as a useful product for the removal of stubborn greasy/gummy substances, but we have found another few uses for it.
We were always those annoying people to come and stay with, you know, the ones who don't leave any smelly spray in the loo to cover the unpleasant odour of life's necessary activities...
Well, I have always been opposed to cans of chemical-laden room deodorants. Not to get all hippy or anything, but they actually smell toxic to me, so I have avoided using them where I can, including not buying them for use in my own house.
My brother, who is well and truly in the camp of covering life's unpleasant odours with as much deodorant as possible was so put out by my attitude that he actually started to bring his own toilet spray whenever he and his wife came to stay!! Imagine!!
Something had to be done. After telling him that his spray wasn't welcome, I compromised and began searching for a better option and we've found one: Eucalyptus Oil in spray form.
This is a great product, it smells good, it is a natural disinfectant and it can be used for cleaning. You can use it as a stain remover on your clothes and as I mentioned before, it is a great degreaser for kitchen cupboards.
For me it's right up there with vinegar and bicarb soda in my healthier home cleaning arsenal.
Funnily enough it is actually found in the medicine section of the supermarket, not the cleaning section, but it is well worth the search.
