I use my own home-mix laundry detergent and home cleaning products. They do a better job and of course, less expensive. Not to mention, many ingredients are non-toxic.

One warning with vinegar, be very careful not to mix it with bleach. We often hear not to place ammonia next to bleach in case both spill by accident, an of course never never ever mix the 2. The invisible fume is very toxic and will kill us. The same applies to vinegar mix with bleach. So, be very careful when doing home-mix products.

Well, maybe it's too late, but Mrs. Meyers has some pine scented stuff that I love. I just ordered some for gifts this week, and it arrived within 24 hours of my ordering it online from their website -- with FREE shipping. Target was also carrying it, but not much of it.

I just used it on some garmets with underarm stains, and it works very well! I saw this recipe somewhere and it said to add just a little baking soda to make it a little gritty. I did that, and will use this concoction again next time. Good to know something so simple, will work. Thanks.
