Grow Your Garden

Tired of your sprouting buds getting killed off by diseases or mould? Disinfect your flowerpots, planters, and even your watering cans with bleach before use to prevent the spread of plant-killing disease and mould.

Create a solution with half a cup of bleach with approximately 4L of water. Soak your pots and planters for at least five minutes in the solution before rinsing with water. Let it dry and you're good to go! Watch your garden bloom.


Flower Power

Not only is bleach great for cleaning your gardening tools, but it even helps your flowers grow! Just add one (1) teaspoon of bleach per quart (approx. 950ml) of water in your vase to keep your flowers fresher for longer and prevent mould and mildew from forming.


Gleaming Glassware

Have your glassware lost their shine? Just a teaspoon of bleach added to your usual dishwashing routine will put the sparkle back into any glass or dish! Of course, be sure to rinse well and dry your glassware with a soft towel to prevent streaks.

Butcher Block Bestie

Despite what you may think, bleach is best for cleaning wooden cutting boards, especially butcher’s blocks. Mix 1 teaspoon of bleach with 2L of water and scrub your cutting board’s surface with the solution. Be sure not to let it soak! Wipe clean with a damp kitchen towel and dry thoroughly.


Manage Your Moss

Get rid of moss and algae build-up on any surface! Stay safe and prevent this slippery suspect from landing you on your behind with a mixture of 175ml of bleach to 3.75L of water. Scrub down your walls or floors and say goodbye to those unsightly patches of algae and moss in no time!
