My husband got caulking all over his washable pants. I tried plain water but the caulk repelled the water. I then grabbed the Thieves Cleaner and poured it directly on the affected areas. With a little rubbing I found that the Thieves Cleaner melted the caulk away. After washing the pants they came out looking like new.

I put a drop of Thieves oil in the toilet while we were away for a week and when we returned the toilets looked like I had just cleaned them. Usually a pink tinge from mold is at the water line and the bowl under the waterline is an even lighter pink. Sparkling clean!

We recently moved from California to Utah into a home that was built in the 1880's. It wasn't until I was deep cleaning that I realized there were some serious mold issues!!
I got some samples, had them tested and there were several strains of molds, common and not-so common. We'd moved to an area that had no other homes available for rent and I was panicked, since I'm extremely sensitive to mold, having been 'poisoned' by black mold about 10 years ago. There was nowhere else to go while our home is being built.
I immediately got our my Thieves Cleaner, Thieves Oil, Diffuser, rubber gloves and face mask! I sprayed the Thieves Cleaner straight onto the affected areas and just left it for several hours. I began diffusing Thieves Oil - and did so for the next 48 hours. In the basement, where there was alot of mildew and mold, I sprayed a mixture of Thieves Oil, Thieves Cleaner and grain alcohol directly onto the brick walls. Then I left the house to rest.
The next day when I came back, the black mold in the cupboards that had been so unsightly had almost disappeared. I sprayed the affected areas again, soaking liberally, and wiped them down after a few minutes. The mold is gone! In the basement, the same thing had happened. I re-sprayed with my mixture and it is also GONE!
I coaxed the carpet cleaner to use my Thieves Cleaner instead of his citrus stuff (which I have an allergy to!). He reluctantly did so and was thrilled and amazed at how clean the carpets were. I was so happy, because they were disinfected, smalled great and are so soft now.
I continue to diffuse Thieves, Purification and Eucalytpus a couple of times a week. The mold issues are gone. I can breathe without any problems. I LOVE THIS STUFF!!

To remove the stain and smell of cat urine from clothing cover the area with Thieves Household Cleaner. Place the clothing in a sink, or tub, filled with cold water. Add a little more Thieves to the water and stir. Allow it to soak for several hours or overnight. Hang it up to air dry. I did this with a white tee shirt and the stain and smell were completely gone. I have never had this success with any other cleaning product. I've always had to throw out the clothing.

As the environment is naturally moist on my boat especially in the early morning hours, mold can be a problem. I noticed I started sneezing a lot when I was on the boat and was curious why so I started looking for dust and pulled up everything that wasn't nailed down. When I noticed black splotches under cushions, which I recognized as mold, I immediately cleaned them off with Thieves and vowed not to have to deal with that again. I now diffuse Thieves everyday for at least 20 minutes and have no more occurrence of the mold and have quit sneezing as well.

My husband tried vermiculture over the winter using home-made boxes made of particle board. We were so successful in making worm castings and worm tea that the boxes rotted and broke through, causing a horrible stink on our cement floor. I can not use chlorine bleach or come in contact with any halogen (except natural iodine) because of my thyroid problems. What to do?
I only had Thieves oil on hand, not the cleaner. Rolling up my sleeves, I tried a dishpan solution of warm water, a generous amount of Bragg's Raw Apple Cider Vinegar, and about 10 drops of Thieves. IMMEDIATELY the stink left - quicker than the gunk on the floor, actually. The little black flies seemed repelled as well. It's been over a month now and the stink has never returned. I am still in the beginning phases of learning about essential oils, and I must say, I am amazed by how well Thieves worked here.
