When you think of eucalyptus oil, chances are you associate it with relieving cold symptoms or soothing muscle aches and pains. 

But did you know this natural powerhouse can also transform your home cleaning routine? Bosisto’s Eucalyptus products are not only great for wellness — they’re also your secret weapon for a fresher, cleaner home.

Here are six unexpected and brilliant ways you can use eucalyptus oil every day.


1. Mop Your Floors

Say goodbye to harsh chemical cleaners and hello to a sparkling, naturally clean home. Adding eucalyptus oil to your mop bucket is a game-changer!

Just add a few capfuls of Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Solution to a bucket of hot water, and mop away. Not only does it leave your floors clean and streak-free, but it also fills your home with that crisp, refreshing eucalyptus scent. 

If you prefer a ready-made floor cleaner option, Bosisto’s Floor Cleaner fits the bill.  Not only does it clean brilliantly, it’s made with pure eucalyptus oil from Bosisto’s farm in Inglewood Victoria.


2. Bust Odours in the Wash

Struggling with musty towels, sweaty gym gear, or that mystery smell in the laundry basket? Eucalyptus oil to the rescue!

A few sprays of Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray directly onto smelly clothes helps freshen nasty odours (it's especially good for armpits in shirts). 

You can also add a few capfuls of Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Solution in the wash cycle to boost your detergent’s cleaning power — even better if you use it with an eucalyptus based laundry detergent like Bosisto’s Sensitive Laundry Powder, Liquid or Capsules!

This combo is a match for the toughest odours life throws your way – from tradie’s socks to your teen’s KFC uniforms.


3. Clean Your Rangehood (or anywhere sticky)


Grease and grime, especially in the kitchen, can be stubborn to clean. That’s where the natural solvent power of eucalyptus oil really shines.

Use Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray to tackle sticky residue on rangehoods, splashbacks and stovetops (only when the stove’s off and cooled completely), and cupboard doors. Just spray, let it sit for a few seconds, then wipe clean. 

For tougher grease, use Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Oil directly on a damp cloth. It cuts through grease without the need for synthetic degreasers.

For a ready-made version try Bosisto’s Multipurpose Cleaner  – harnessing the power of natural Aussie grown eucalyptus oil, it’s great if you prefer the convenience of a traditional spray with the natural power of essential oil. Plus, it’s CHOICE recommended 4 years in a row.


4. Freshen Your Teen’s Room

Let’s face it — teen bedrooms can develop a unique scent over time . Rather than masking it with synthetic air fresheners, tackle the source more naturally.

Use Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray to freshen bedding, curtains, shoes, and even soft toys. It neutralises odours and adds a clean, natural scent. You can also put a few drops of Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Oil on a cotton ball and leave in their bin, or use it in an oil diffuser to keep the whole room smelling fresh and inviting.

5. Clean Your Wheelie Bin

Your outdoor bin can become a breeding ground for bacteria and unpleasant odours — especially in the warmer months. Luckily, eucalyptus oil is a natural cleaner and deodoriser.

After cleaning out your bin, spray it generously with Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray to kill germs and banish smells. For a deeper clean, add a few capfuls of Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Solution into a bucket of hot water and give the inside a good scrub.

6. Freshen Your Mattress

Mattresses can harbour dust mites, bacteria, and odours — all things you'd rather not be sleeping on. Freshen your bed the natural way with eucalyptus oil.

Generously spray your mattress with Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray when changing the sheets. It neutralises odours and leaves your bed smelling clean and fresh. 

So next time you’re cleaning, skip the synthetic stuff and reach for Bosisto’s. You’ll be amazed at what this natural wonder can do — and your home will thank you for it.
