My house/Zoflora

Posting here for traffic.
My house is a bit horrid. I have pets and a messy DH (who does get on board when I have a proper 'spruce' but doesn't notice the daily grime). I can keep on top of genuine rubbish but clutter builds easily. I know nobody can sort this out for me and I am working on it.
What bothers me most is smell. Although it's clean ish, it doesn't smell fresh. I do open windows for a bit every day.
I bought some miracle potion Zoflora yesterday and already mop the floors with it. I want to know what I can do with it as almost like a reed diffuser/air freshener?
I don't put the heating on much (have a log burner) so don't think putting it on radiators would work. I do hoover relatively regularly so can try the cotton wool trick. Anything else I could try? Is it really safe to spray on curtains? Any other tips for a pet household for smell? Thanks in advance!

MaQueen · 27/10/2016 11:10

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 11:13

Ma it's the opinion of the uneducated and uninformed Wink

Namechangingbastard · 27/10/2016 11:22

I keep bobbing on here for motivation. I read a few posts then think ooh must clean that...much in the way I did whilst watching kim n aggie back in the day!

Moz Grin

I'm not surprised at the last one either

I bought some Zoflora today for the first time

Let's see how we get on. I will still bleach the loo though. I do love the smell of bleach

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 11:41

I know soub, I'm so naughty.

And YY to bleach for the toilet, that will always be needed.

Soubriquet · 27/10/2016 11:42

You always know where to look if you want someone to piss on your chips Grin

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 11:44

... Or just spout meaningless bollocks that isn't actually correct Grin

Soubriquet · 27/10/2016 11:49

Yep

wendytorrence · 27/10/2016 11:57

Have damp dusted with zoflo
You guys rock, I'm converted already!

TheLionQueen · 27/10/2016 12:23

I feel terrible. The poorly animal that was resident in my house that I wanted to evacuate as it was hindering my zoflo action has died Sad
On the plus side, the shake n vac in the bin has worked a treat!

MaQueen · 27/10/2016 12:39

PinkissimoAndPearls · 27/10/2016 12:51

What an offensive and knobbish thing to say poppy.

babynugget · 27/10/2016 12:54

pmsl at the assumption I have OCD......if only you knew........

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 13:05

poppy if you only clean with fairy liquid, your standards are piss poor.

And classy comment about OCD by the way!

Soubriquet · 27/10/2016 13:07

Yes...I have OCD because i want to make sure it's disinfected from the tummy bug ds seems to have Hmm

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 13:09

soub I think her real name is miss havisham

You know poppy, bleach would get that wedding dress back to its pearly white original state.

Manumission · 27/10/2016 13:10

OMG poppy this is the ZoFlo thread you know. You can't start a grubby row here.

Take yourself off to AIBU quickly before we give you a good wipe with a 1:4 dilution.

SleepFreeZone · 27/10/2016 13:11

Don't let one bad egg spoil your fun. This thread was making me chuckle Grin

Mozfan1 · 27/10/2016 13:11

Manu just be glad you don't know poppy in real life, her house must stink 😷
