Benefect Cleaner

Flu season is here and it’s important to kill those germs on countertops, computer keyboards and in the kids’ rooms.  But if don’t want to use those harsh chlorine and ammonia disinfectants that burn your eyes and throat with chemical vapors, how about a totally green one that’s safe for even kids and pets!

Benefect is a 100% green disinfectant made from thyme oil that promises to kill 99.99% of bacteria, fungi and viruses.  It’s the only EPA-registered natural disinfectant.  It’s milder than vinegar and there’s no need to wipe it off.  Just spray and walk away.

First, clean with Benefect’s 100% natural All-Purpose Cleaner.  It’s is also made from botanicals.  I cleans floors, walls, windows, sinks, toilets, even upholstery and carpets.  The products are made in Connecticut and available only on-line. http://www.benelifegreen.com/
