OK, I know... everyone is going to get (or already is) tired of me talking about Watkins but I'm just so completely sold on the products and company that it's hard to keep quiet about them. I just ran across a list of uses for Watkins Organic Cleaner on one of our bulletin boards that I MUST share with you. Just some of the uses for this product...
General Cleaning: Use 1 tsp to 1 qt of water. Cleans kitchen, doors, woodwork, walls, etc.
Appliances and Bathroom Fixtures: Use ¼ tsp to 1 pint of water. May help reduce odors.
Windows, Mirrors, All Glass: Use 2 drops in a 4 oz spray bottle of water. Wipe dry with paper towel. Do not use more than 2 drops or it will smear.
Dishes: Use 1 tsp in the dish water. Fill dirty pots with water and ¼ tsp of cleaner and let stand to loosen stuborn particles.
Floors: Use ½ tsp per gallon of cold water. (This concentration will not remove wax). Wring Mop to dry and wipe up spots and dirt leaving floors shiny.
Furniture: Use ¼ tsp per pint of water. With nearly dry sponge wipe off dust, fingerprints, candy, spots, etc. or use a spray bottle and clean cloth. Everything disappears from furniture leaving the finish beautifully bright and non-magnetic so the finish will not attract dust.
Spot Remover: Apply directly to soiled area, use brush to rub into area of spot. Wipe off with a damp cloth or rinse in a basin if possible.
Woolens, Silks,Nylons and All Fine Fabrics: Use 1 or 2 tsp to a basin of water. For stains apply a drop or two directly in the spot and pres in with the thumb. Immerse in cold water solution; let stand a few minutes, then rinse by squeezing water through the article and lay to dry.

Add Organic Cleaner: To chicken plucking water and they clean so much better. Great to use when cleaning ducks and geese. (1 capul per gallon of water).
People Planted Trees: They soaked some trees in a 5 gallon bucket with 1 tbls Organic Cleaner per gallon of water. Then they poured the water in the holes that were dug for the trees. The trees planted that year grew 12 inches taller than the trees planted the year before.
A Person Transplanted Trees: Transplanted trees when they were leafed out. They poured water with Organic Cleaner in every other hole. The treated trees lived and the other trees that had only water in the holes died. Try this when planting your garden plants.

Use to Water Your Lawn: 32 oz mixing bottle attached to hose, mix 4 oz Organic Cleaner with water. This covers approximately 1,000 sq ft. With two applications in the hot, fry summer the grass stays greener than others in the neighborhood. It makes the soil absorb water better. Also good on other outdoor and indoor plants.
Kills Bugs: Use 1 tsp in trigger sprayer of hot water; spray on bugs and they drop over dead. This is safe for the environment. This makes water wetter and it penetrates the bodies of the bugs and kills them with no chemicals. Works of Most Garden Bugs.

Prevent Ring-Around-the-Tub: A capful in the bath will prevent ring-around-the-tub. Also prevents that gummy feeling when you finish your bath. Great for soaking the kids.
Now to be honest I haven't tried all these tips out yet so I can't personally endorse them but knowing the quality of other Watkins products I have no doubt that the above will work and there are probably a lot more uses as well.
