Have extra herbs from the garden you don't know what to do with? Make all-natural homemade cleaners!
Many herbs have potent disinfectant properties.
Basil, parsley, bay, cardamom, clove, coriander, eucalyptus, ginger, hyssop, lavender, lemongrass, oregano, peppermint, rose geranium, rosemary, sage, spearmint, and thyme are all herbs that clean. All contain a multitude of plant chemicals that possess antibacterial, antifungal, antiseptic, and antiviral properties.
I love to take a handful of parsley, throw it in some boiling water for a couple of minutes, let it steep for about 30 minutes, add a generous squeeze of lemon, strain, pour in a spray bottle, and clean.
