how are you house-cleaning?

i'm running a tight ship these days. i'm essentially "Cinderella" at my house. i dont mind.

i got this going on.

i have a small spray bottle. i commandeered it from the wife. i think she used it to mist her face or something..that ship sailed on that bottle. it is about 8 ounce in capacity. i fill it with water. and just add a few drops of plain-jane Clorox bleach. not even a teaspoon for sure. i then spritz everything and follow up with a paper towel..and then re-mist lightly and move on and let it dry. i do this right before i leave the house to perform my "essential work" duties. only the lightest hint of "swimming pool" smell.

from what i understand, my mix is only good for max 24 hours, so i dont mix much up at all. i think i will only fill the bottle halfway. i can mist/wipe every knob, switch, countertop and lever easy. i'll home in on the perfect volume to minimize waste. it is only pennies to do this, i imagine. i bought that 3-pack of bleach from costco way before this "event horizon". i have lots.

i'll bring it to the office tomorrow.

i cant wait to go back to normal where i wiped things down with an old tube sock.

1 tsp = 4.92 ml, 20 drops per ml

At 1 tsp per gallon, you should be using about 6 drops (6% bleach) per 8 oz water. I would suggest, after mixing, adding 6 drops of white 5% vinegar.

Home ingredient solid surface sanitizer

We clean, then use this light sanitizer on everything.
