Looking for a natural alternative to your floor cleaner? I’ve got you covered!
Thank you O-Cedar for sponsoring today’s post. All opinions are my own.
Hey there! I am excited to share today’s “recipe” with yall. It’s not really a recipe, but it’s a do-it-yourself all natural floor cleaner! Which sort of makes me giddy inside.
Yes, I am excited about floor cleaner.
And here’s why. It easy to make, it doesn’t take much time and it’s safe for the kids to handle. !!!! <— That’s how excited I am that my kids CAN MOP THE FLOOR WITHOUT HARSH CHEMICALS!
I love the kids being able to help out around the house more but I don’t want them messing with chemicals from traditional cleaners. We have been trading in most of our products for natural alternatives and now I can add homemade diy all natural (super awesome) floor cleaner to the list.
Two things make this possible – my Thieves cleaner and the O-Cedar ProMist mop from Wal-Mart. I have been searching for a way to have the convenience of a spray mop without the added chemical cleaner. O-Cedar comes with a refillable bottle that allows you to ADD YOUR OWN CLEANER! <— I am REALLY excited about that part too.
I pulled out my trusty Young Living Thieves cleaner to make an all natural floor cleaner. To make your own floor cleaner you will need:
- 2 teaspoons Thieves household cleaner (or similar all natural cleaner)
- water
Add your Thieves cleaner to the O-Cedar bottle and top with water. Give it shake and insert into the ProMist mop. Ta-da! Homemade cleaner in a jiffy!
See those little toes peeking out up there? THOSE BELONG TO AVERY. Yup, my 6 year started mopping the floor as soon I finished making the cleaner. He started in the kitchen and then went and did both bathrooms. !!!!! <— that is my mind being blown by the fact that my 6 year old cleaned all the tile floor for me. WITHOUT ME ASKING!
I didn’t have to worry about him inhaling anything bad and he loved that he was able to squeeze the trigger to spray it himself. (I love that it doesn’t require batteries!) Oh, and the pads are reusable. I can toss them in the washer when I am done and don’t have to buy more pads.
There are so many PROS to this spray mop yall. These are my favorites:
- Large mouth refillable bottle
- Microfiber reusable pads
- No batteries required
You can grab your own O-Cedar ProMist Spray Mop at Wal-mart in the cleaning section. If you are interested in learning more about essential oils and natural cleaning alternatives, feel free to join our oily mama Facebook group. (We can help you order in there as well!)

I love that you can use your own “cleaners” in this mop!! And I’m a big fan of Thieves cleaner so this mop is right up my alley!!
Michelle Waller says
I would have never thought of adding thieves oil to make a natural floor cleaner. Going to have to try it out!
Kelley says
I love my Thieves and try to use it EVERYWHERE! Lol.
Jennifer says
I have never heard of Thieves before. This is super interesting and will have to check out their line.
Kelley says
Hey Jennifer! It’s part of the Young Living essential oil line. If you want more information, let me know! It’s hands down the best cleaner I’ve used!
lisa says
I agree, I would have never thought to add Thieves either. I really like the O-Cedar mop system, look so lightweight and easy to use. I could use one of these for my bathroom and kitchen floor!
Kelley says
It was lightweight! My 6 year old carried it around and did all the floors!
Alaina Bullock says
I have this mop and I love it! Like you, one of my favorite features is that you can use whatever cleaner you want. I love making my own cleaner from essential oils! I usually use a mix of vinegar, water, tea tree and lemon, but love the idea of adding the Thieves oil! Can’t wait to try it!
Nancy Johnson Horn says
Very cool! I’m always looking for a more natural way to clean my floors.
Kelley says
Same here! Thanks for stopping by!
