Take an old t-shirt and cut it up into rag sized cloths.
Pour 1 cup warm water, 1 ounce liquid castile soap, and 5 – 10 drops of your favorite essential oil into a jar with a tight-fitting lid.
Place the rags into the jar and turn upside down a few times until all the rags are soaked.
After being used, the cloths can be washed and returned to the jar to be used over and over again.

Kitchen Disinfectant Spray
For kitchen cleaning the best method is to have two spray bottles. One hydrogen peroxide and one vinegar. Use them in conjunction but separately. Far safer then the what you would find to disinfect otherwise.
