Regular vinegar kills about 80% of germs, any ideas how this vinegar cope with germs? Does anyone use it to clean their house?

I imagine it would kill a buttload of germs, If regular vinegar at 5% kills 80% of germs then it stands to reason that 20% would kill 320% percent of germs. Any germ this did not kill I would be proud to have. In using this for house cleaning be aware that it is real acid and may etch the surface of some things. If it removes the rust from old tractor parts it is pretty strong. You might consider asking on some cleaning advice forum before using this on a fancy fridge or stone counters.

Not sure. But it does wonders for mineral build up on stainless and porcelain.

I think it would be dangerous to use indoors. When I spray it on my weeds I use eye protection and a mask to avoid breathing the fumes. I wouldn't do it.

I use vinegar. You can mix it 50/50 with water and just let it sit. The longer the better. I have done it a few times. It may take a couple soakings to get it off.

I think there is quite a bit of technique in using the vinegar, including season and plant to control. I'm trying to get rid of a Very invasive vine. First one I tried it on, I dug down to the roots and poured in vinegar. A month later it was growing again (but it did set it back a bit). Then I tried a method I saw on the net - cut the end of the vine and immerse it in vinegar, letting the vine suck up the vinegar. That seems to kill that arm for sure but there are so many plants spread so far that that method is too labor intensive, so I'm going to be digging up about 200 sq ft this winter to get to the roots. So My advice is: research on the net to find the best method for your particular problem plant.

Personally I use their citric acid cleaner. I would highly recommend that!!! I've owned my machine for about 3yrs & it's hard to completely rid the vinegar smell/taste. I've cleaned my Kurig that way & YUCK!

I've used Vinegar water - with no issues. I've also used other solutions with no problems. As to why they don't recommend - you have to ask them, but I'm sure it's to cover themselves.

rinse the entire thing out. Place straight distilled white vinegar into the unit. Run unit with only the distilled vinegar in it for a few hours that should clean it off good luck.

Vinegar will be cheaper and should kill them too. Full strength no extra water. It may attract bees so beware of that downside. I would not use purple power for that.

Yes. Wash the herbs as you would any garden fair. I soak herbs, fruit and vegetables in a lukewarm solution of 1 part white vinegar to 20 parts water for 5-10 minutes then rinse. the vinegar kills bacteria and fungi while removing surface contaminants.

I would highly recommend CLR or Limeaway (quick and easy) or, if you are a tree-hugger (just teasing ;^) you might try the much slower and probably less effective white vinegar. If using vinegar I would suggest periodically turning the unit "ON" for a 2-3 minutes in order to heat the vinegar which should make it more effective. I would not heat the CLR or Limeaway without first ensuring that it's safe (I have no information about heating those chemicals). Good luck, and please let us know if this works for you!!

Super easy care! Clean with a cotton swab. I think it says u can use vinegar to sit for a little in the tank but I haven't needed to. Very easy. I use distilled H2O BC I have very hard well water.

Why not use nature's miracle on the grout or white vinegar.( I have a dog and that's what I did when she was a puppy) I don't know if the steamer would help.

i don't know, i've only used for olive oil. I don't see why it shouldn't work for vinegar.

I put a little in (about 1/2 a teaspoon) along with my laundry detergent. It helps get rid of odors and bacteria.

I rinse mine in warm water,then run a vinegar,thyme oil,citrus oil mix through then rinse again,hang to dry. Seventh generation makes a disinfecting surface cleaner that's basically the same as my home made stuff. These cleaners are safe if you don't rinse it all out,leaves tubes smelling like nothing. No cleaner smell,no milk smell,no vinegar smell. You could probably do just vinegar, I just find the mix or the seventh generation,helps clean as well as disinfect as where vinegar sometimes can't do oily stuff like cream in milk. We are very happy with this milker, and the ease of use

Before you spend the money have you tried vinegar? I like this product but I don't know how well it would remove the buildup.

Thank you for your suggestion to use vinegar. I just did and most of it came off. I have to use pumice in the toilet bowls too.

Hi Sarah,Thank you for your question! Our product will work great after using Nature's Miracle. However, if you've used vinegar, then you will want to remove it as much as possible because the acidity of the vinegar will inhibit the beneficial bacteria in our product from working.When you order any of our products, you will receive an email with instructions and contact info to email or call. We love to hear from our customers in order to help solve any problems that may arise.Thank you for choosing Rocco & Roxie,PaulCo-FounderRocco & Roxie Supply Co.
