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!

I can't get to a Sainsburys where I live but I am going away next week to my home town where there is one!

All the asdas near me have Twilight Garden and sometimes Winter Morning. Good luck Zoflo hunters. I lay down a challenge for the first picture of all current Zoflo flavours. I know one of you have them all. Come on people one of us can do this.

PrancerForHoney · 13/11/2016 11:21

Now there's a photo I'd like to see!

gemmawinegum · 13/11/2016 16:46

I'm a relatively newbie to the world of Zoflora. Its pretty much kicked dettol out of my cleaning cupboard. I use it everywhere now. Kitchen surfaces, bathroom surfaces and floors. The only place it does not reign supreme for me is the inside of the loo. Love finding the different scents too.

ZoFloMoFo · 13/11/2016 19:05

Oh wow, I found this thread by googling for Winter Morning Zoflora, and I feel like I'm home Grin.

I can't find Winter Morning in any shops near me and I'm about to resort to buying online. I've just mopped the kitchen floor with Roses, my current favourite.

I often dilute a quarter/half a capful of Zoflo with some water and use it in my Yankee Candle tart burner.

Haffdonga · 13/11/2016 19:58

And the best name prize goes to ZoFloMoFo Star

Eevee2016 · 14/11/2016 15:44

Might try Stardrops then. Although honestly I can't imagine using anything other than Zo now! It's so sad but it's really helped my depression as it's made me feel inspired to clean.

Found Clean Linen and Twilight Garden over the weekend and they are both gorgeous. I'm currently selling a few of my old clothes on eBay and wrap them in tissue paper first, I've now started dabbing a bit of Clean Linen onto it and it smells lovely so am hoping the buyers like it Smile

auldfuckingspinster · 14/11/2016 19:43

I now have warm cinnamon, citrus fresh, winter spice, rose, jasmine and honeysuckle, pink grapefruit, lavender and cranberry & orange.

ZoFloMoFo · 14/11/2016 20:04

Thanks Haffdonga Grin.

The search for Winter Morning continues. I tried Asda today but didn't find any.

Talk of toilet lids and flushing and poo particles on another thread has me itching to go and give the downstairs loo a wipe over with some Clean Linen.

Today I went to a local "sells everything" shop near me where Ive bought zoflora before.

I was sure the big bottle was aboout £3.79 last time I bought it, yet today it was 6.99?!

and they didnt have the one I was lookign for. :(

Is the springtime one lemony?

PrancerForHoney · 15/11/2016 07:40

I have to go to Morrisons today to pick up stuff for work. I shall detour down the cleaning aislequipment and see what I can find. 😄

PrancerForHoney · 15/11/2016 07:40

Bloody auto correct!!!! Why does it change words just as you hit send!!!

babynugget · 15/11/2016 07:53

puppup £6.99!!!! That's daylight robbery! Although if desperate I would pay that for my Zoflo.

Springtime is quite floral but it's also fresh. It's nice for bathrooms but not really the one you would want your whole house to smell of if that makes sense?

TheLionQueen · 15/11/2016 08:16

I agree with babynugget that springtime is really fresh and best for cleaning bathrooms. I ran out of fabric conditioner and threw a capful in with work stuff but won't do it again, it's not quite the right fragrance for it..

Loads of twilight garden, country garden , winter morning and warm cinnamon in Tescos yesterday..

PupPupBoogie · 15/11/2016 12:18

It is robbery! And they only had 2 scents (that I already have)

I'm at that nesting stage of pregnancy where I just want to lick cleaning products. Not literally. .. though I could have snorted lines of lemon shake and vac the other day, so I got it into my head that I'd like a lemon zoflora. I've got the citrus one but that's more orangey and I'm not keen as to me it smells like school toilets!

babynugget · 15/11/2016 14:02

PupPup did someone up thread mention a grapefruit one? And there's an apple one in my collection that I've not tried yet. Might satisfy your craving?

Poppypoochischristmascrackered · 15/11/2016 15:58

Well fellow zafloraholics, I tried the top tip of washing Dyson filter in Zaflora, I have just hoovered all bedrooms and they smell wonderful. GrinGrin

PrancerForHoney · 15/11/2016 16:11

Not that I'm sad Wink but a sneaky picture on the bus to say look what's in my shopping bag!!!
I'm so chuffed!!!

My house/Zoflora
Poppypoochischristmascrackered · 15/11/2016 16:30

Prancer I'm not sad either, but what's the two flavours at the back can't make them out Blush I so need to go shopping I only have 4 half empty bottles left Sad

PrancerForHoney · 15/11/2016 17:27

Green Valley and Warm Cinnamon.
My collection is growing out of control!

Poppypoochischristmascrackered · 15/11/2016 18:19

Prancer Thanks, never seen Green Valley anywhere, will need to widen my search Grin
