Enter the bay leaf. Yep, the same one you’d find in your soup. Simply toss it into your mop bucket and see the magic unfold. Let me break down why this is an excellent idea:

Natural Aroma: Bay leaves have this calm and refreshing scent that lingers around your home. It’s like nature’s own air freshener, minus the artificial fragrances you get from store-bought cleaners.

Anti-Germ Powerhouse: Bay leaves aren’t just pretty smelling. They pack a punch with their antibacterial traits. When you mop with bay-leaf-infused water, you’re not just cleaning; you’re disinfecting, naturally.

Bug-Busting: Tired of those summertime bugs that find their way in? Bay leaves have got your back. Their aroma keeps annoying pests like mosquitoes and flies at bay (pun intended!).

Shiny Floors: If you want your floors to have that extra shine, again, bay leaves can help. Their essential oils act as a natural polisher, especially great for tiles or wooden floors.
