For both Thieves and Purification add 6-8 drops to the fabric softener dispenser of your washing machine to help ward off extra odors and kill germs in your laundry. Add it to the detergent dispenser to kill the odors in the washer or kill germs in general in the washer.
Both of these are incredible oils with so much health and potential benefits….enjoy!
