Hi friends,

Greetings from the hive!

Came across these alleged goated cleaning supplies on TikTok:

  • Bar Keepers Friend

  • Odoban Multi-Surface

  • Concentrated Cleaning Vinegar (already a staple)

  • Isopropyl Alcohol (already a staple)

  • Murphy's Oil Soap

  • and Lysol Cling Toilet cleaner can basically cover everything your house

Will report back once I try them.

Let's take them by swarm!
