Semi off subject but started using well water and whatever kind of essential oils. Got a plant "mister" and use that primarily for room spray, GAME CHANGER>

PLUS pretty much EVERY essential oil is a bug deterrent. SO winning in that capacity also.

I just use that so far. BUT also you can do essential oils for scent etc. AND I think baking soda. I am firing them in this regard also, this bs "forever chemical" system.

Moving to Florida next week and we have well water at our new place. I can't wait. I'm switching everything up. Only using vinegar and baking soda with essential oils for cleaning products. Clean slate! Clear property. We are going to start growing our own fruits and veggies. Know nothing about gardening, but we are going to learn. Getting chickens too. I can't wait. I hadn't thought of diy laundry detergent til I read your post. I will definitely be using vinegar for laundry as well. Not even bringing our dryer. We are doing the of clothes line. We are so excited.

No I have not read that it will. Yes 5 percent vinegar. Fren said hers came out super white tried it a few times and dismantles any smell on the clothes.

This guy is a greasy dirty cuss who is not using my washer. Period. SO far walks out that info. Very fookin impressed so far.
