During Cold and Flu Season, Caring Isn’t Sharing

GERMS ARE EVERYWHERE, even if you can’t see them

In fact, doorknobs, computer keyboards, and the money in your pocketbook have more germs per square inch than the toilet seat—places you don’t think twice about touching. And while the immune system can fight off many of them, household germs are still the primary cause of infectious disease. Keep reading to find out how Melaleuca Sol-U-Guard Botanical can help.

    Sol U Guard Botanical is our favorite cleaner and disinfectant…We use this to disinfect everything in our home. We especially spray down our 2 year old’s high chair, toys, garbage can lids, toilet seats, and everything else. The smell is awesome too – with the herb thyme and lemon.

    Its a common misunderstanding that you get ill because of the cold. Its being indoors with the heaters on full and the windows never being opened that causes the bacteria to grow!

    I absolutely love the scent of Sol-U-Guard Botanical. I’m especially thankful for this product now that we have a new 10wk old puppy in the house. If he has an accident (which is actually very rare since he follows our other 2 dogs who are very well trained) I can disinfect the floors with confidence knowing that there is no harmful chemical residue left behind. Yesterday he flipped his food bowl over & ate off of the kitchen floor. Thanks to Melaleuca, I don’t have to worry. I know my home is safe!
