Tips for using Thieves Household Cleaner

Thieves Household Cleaner is safe to use at a 15:1 dilution or higher for most non-porous surfaces. One capful of this cleaner is equal to approximately ½ tablespoon, so ½ cup of water mixed with one capful of cleaner yields a 15:1 dilution. For best results, mix only the amount of cleaner that you will need to use right away. Before using, do a small spot test in an inconspicuous location, especially on wood, plastic, fabric, and granite. Do not use this product on soft plastics or vinyl.
