Keep seeing this mentioned. Googled it. Still not 100% sure what it is. Do I spray it like dettol spray or does it go in water like flash? What is it and what can I use it on?

You'll need to dilute it but yes, you can spray around rooms to 'clean' the air, use it in the mop bucket, use it to wipe down bathroom surfaces (a bit floral for the kitchen). But you do need to dilute.

I run hot water in the sink and then pour some in and leave it. Smells nice

Oooh,I bought 3 bottles today, all different but not a clue what to do with it. I'm hoping to use if to get rid of this weird smell in the house, only I can smell it and no one else can but it's driving me mad!

Any advice welcome.

Currently, my house smells faintly of the linen one because I poured a capful down all the sinks. I keep it diluted in a spray bottle for use in the kitchen, cleaning the washing machine, cat litter trays, bins, dab on radiators for a lovely smell...

I use it in the mop bucket for washing floors and a little drop on a wet cloth for wiping surfaces, makes the kitchen smell nice. Also use it for washing out the food scraps bin. I was excited to see the return of warm cinnamon and winter spice in B&M today Blush.

It sounds incredible. I just don't get diluting. I don't own a mop bucket Blush I use floor wipes and spray on My wood floors. My new house is nearly all carpets so not sure how to use zoflora there apart from cleaning kitchen and bathroom. Does it clean or just disinfect at the end? So many questions!

It's not a cleaner. It kills bacteria and makes the place smell nice. Don't use it on your carpets.

To dilute: use 1 cap with 400 ml of water. Use a measuring jug and your washing up bowl if you want, you don't need a mop bucket. It doesn't matter if you put too much water in.

MrTrebus You have to dilute as it is highly flamable otherwise!

Wow ok dilution will definitely occur and I'll use this post cleaning I think in kitchen and bathroom and maybe down sinks and toilets.

Can I ask where is best to buy this please? And which is the nicest scent? Very very hard to find round here. Poundworld has Hyacinth, Floral Bouquet & Lemon but I think I remember someone saying they were pungent?? Never tried it! X

I buy the 50p empty spray bottles (from Wilko's holiday miniatures section) and fill them with Zoflora. Works really well as I spray the sink, steam cleaner cloth, worktop etc. It's a small amount and can easily be diluted with a wet sponge. The lavender one is nice, as is linen fresh but the latter smells like a Lynx deodorant my 18 year old boyfriend used to wear.

Weirdly, I'm 9 month's pregnant and one of my main cravings has been the smell of Zoflora and cleaning products. Confused

I get it from £ shops and Tesco. It's just a disinfectant but it smells nice compared to a clinical smell.

I use it on my toilet and bath once a week, to clean my windows and mirrors cause it doesn't leave a residue, and just for general going over after I've used a cleaner.

I don't get the obsession with it though.

My favourite is Twilight Garden, so good you could practically wear as a perfume.

Dilute into a spray bottle and use a general cleaning spray.

I'm another who has a spray bottle with a diluted load in it. I spritz it on the floor and then give it a wipe and I also use a spray on the dogs beds to keep them fresh (make sure it dries before the dogs go anywhere near it).

dilute in water and use to clean the akirtinf boards, kitchen cuoboard fronts, kitchen floor.

Also dilute with water in a spray bottle as a kond of 'febreeze'. I have done the soaked cotton wool ball in the hoover too and put a drop in the bottom of the bin.

I love it, especially the grapefruit one. I dilute it into a spray bottle to do the bathroom floors. I go over the floors first with a dry microfibre mop to get the dust and fluff up, then spray them well with Zoflora, then mop the floors. Much easier than dragging the steam cleaner upstairs.
