Question from Annette Tweedel
Hi Debra, We are going to be staying at a Bed & Breakfast in a few weeks and they are willing to accommodate me. They use things like caburn (I am not sure if I spelled that correctly or what it is), windex and a toilet bowl cleaner. Is it true that peroxide can be used to clean anything? If so, how do you use it? Can you give me the mixture, so I can tell the people at the place, unless you can suggest something better. Or what would be better, vinegar and water or the peroxide?
Debra’s Answer
I would suggest the vinegar and water over peroxide. Peroxide is a bleaching agent and so could cause damage if they don’t use it correctly.
I would tell them it’s OK to use an unscented soap, baking soda, vinegar, and Bon Ami for cleaning. That should cover all their needs.
You might ask them to specify what are the cleaning tasks that need to be done and then give them instructions for each specifically.
Be sure to ask about what they use to launder the sheets, as that is often the worst!
And no potpourri, scented candles, or Febreeze.
