Thanks for the comparison. I like the way the kitchen smells after using the Mrs. Meyers but it's good to know the Method cleaned better in so many situations. What both companies need to do is to fully list all the ingredients. Just saying natural products is not enough for me. Still, I'm sure both products are way better health wise than traditional cleaners. Thanks again!!
I wasn't surprised at all. I've always liked Method over Mrs. Meyers. As much as I wanted to like it, I am not a fan at all. I've asked Grove to stop sending me free Mrs. Meyers products because I'm not a fan. Thanks for confirming!💚
I have wanted to know the difference between these forever so thank you for doing this video! I just bought the Method for the first time and have been impressed with how little you have to use!
My wife went through a Mrs Myers kick about a year ago and I am the one who cleans the bathrooms. I was so dissatisfied with the Mrs Myers. I actually used to have to follow up after the Mrs Myers with 409 on the counters, the mirrors with Windex, and Clorox in the shower and toilets. The bottom line... it is hard to beat Ammonia and Bleach products; just don't use them together.
I loveee Mrs. Meyer's scent so much. I wouldn't necessarily use it for bathrooms or if I wanted to do a real deep clean- Clorox is always best for that- but I enjoy using their products for individual bedrooms and for the living room.
I started off with Mrs. Meyer's but I switched to all Method cleaners . Method's all purpose cleaner works great on all surfaces. I always had problems with streaks using Mrs. Meyers all purpose on glass.
I've never used either but I've already gotten my order from Grove. I'll be going to Wal-Mart, Target and eBay from now on afterwards. They're both a bit cheaper on these sites and the only reason I bought from Grove first was for the free items 😁. Thank you for sharing but one thing I must say is that the Mrs. Meyer's is over all cheaper when you factor in that they offer a concentrate for their all purpose cleaner. I haven't researched if Method offers the same so correct me if I'm wrong (just don't be a ___ about it, commenters)😃
Mrs. Meyers is cheaper because you can buy the Concentrated bottle from Grove where you add it to your existing bottle and just add water. This will last forever. The bottle is huge & I haven’t even used it but once, it’s going to last me at least a year if not longer but great video. Thanks!
Method also has their own glass cleaner too. I will put both of those to the test too. The bottle reads, "for all nonporous surfaces." That includes glass.
Fed Up With Fatigue Maybe she is testing it on the mirror for residue comparison of each product to see hoe much it leaves behind and not that we would use it to clean our mirrors with?
I just purchased one of almost everything of the method cleaner, I’m trying to venture away from lysol and bleach and such. I love her idea on the testing, I am inspired to make my own comparison video, I need to go back and purchase some Mrs. Meyers products. 🙂
Thanks for the comparison, I’ve never used either, but have a mixture of both coming from grove. From videos I’ve already watched about them, I am shocked about the results here! Still excited for the fall mrs Meyers scents, though 😊
Thank you. I appreciate the thoroughness of your comparisons. I'm new to Grove and haven't settled in with a preferred cleaner. It looks like I'll be going with method. :)
I secretly wanted Mrs Meyers to win as well but price alone is a big plus for Method. I just purchased my first Method all purpose cleaner a few weeks back along with the hand soap.
I just came across your channel and I love it! Thank you for posting this kind of stuff. I have recently purchased both of these brands of proud over the last year as I want to used less chemical based cleaners in my home. Please keep these types of videos coming as I find them to be a really big help! Thanks for sharing!
Just curious if the microfiber cloths are the same brand. I know the microfiber cloth I get from Grove is much nicer/heavier than a pack of 12 I bought off Amazon.
Mrs. Meyers is so much better. I feel like method is cheaper quality, doesn't work as well, and their scents aren't even in the same league. Method seemed much more watered down to me in these tests
Mrs Meyers packaging isn't decorative. I would rather get the methods as it is more economical. And I don't know anyone who keeps their all purpose cleaner on the I counter all the time. I appreciate you comparing the two. On my mirrors I wouldn't use all purpose cleaner, it always streaks but great comparison.
Yeah if I need a deep clean I definitely go for the method and I use method in mybathroom since it is stored under the countertop. But I love the way mrs. Meyers smells in my kitchen/living room so I have the dish soap as well as the hand soap and all-purpose cleaner. I also love that mrs. Meyers does seasonal scents so I always pick those up just to mix things up.
I personally like the fall scents from Mrs. Meyers the most. But I like the summer scents from method. I don’t use either on my mirrors though. I’m use both on my wood furniture with no problems. I usually just buy whichever scent I crave at the time.
I am a fan of Method. I bought the Mrs Meyers to see what the hype was and didn’t like it. Your cooking oil test is what I would get on my stove and fridge. Every time! I used it to clean my sink to finish it and never bought it again.
Thank you for this video. I have felt that my Method cleaner was so good at what it does, but I kept seeing everyone using Mrs.Myers. I bought one bottle, but I didn’t feel like it compared to Method. So thank you for actually testing it out, I will continue to use the Method cleaner! Also, Costco has a great window cleaner. It’s in the automotive isle, my husband bought it for work, but I tried it on our bathroom mirrors and it’s fantastic!
I like both because the scents are different but I will use the method lime and sea salt wipes everywhere even on my mirrors in the bathroom and the wipes work great on it!
I prefer the Attitude products that are made in Canada. I have asthma and they do not irritate my airway the way other cleaning products do. They clean very well and do not need a follow-up cleaning because dirt was left behind. I also like their line of shampoos and bodywashes as well as hand soaps.
I've been waiting for this video! Thanks for doing it. I have used both products but was still curious to see which one would do the best. That scent in Method is my new favorite. Loved the intro, too.
It’s my current fave, too, although the pink grapefruit is a close second and I like the clementine as well. I know others here have said that lavender gives them headaches, but I use lavender in my bath off my bedroom without problem.
After all reviews I've read on Mrs Meyers glass cleaner and others I've decided to stick to my own way of making my glass cleaner which is vinegar, water, and 70% alcohol with drops of essential oils. It works best than even windex. ;)
@@TheGoldProject sweet! While I was commenting about using rubbing alcohol at the same time while watching your video you mentioned it hehe. Glad I'm not the only one =) and thanks for this video!! I might switch to Method!! =)
Thanks for doing this! I assumed they worked the same but good to know. I'm using some spray from Williams Sonoma right now. It's pricey but it's made with essential oils. Maybe you could compare this with the Method? Now I'm curious...Have you tried the Method Heavy Dirt De-greaser? It's great for my range hood and stove top.
Great comparison. I like both, though I am more prone to Mrs Meyers. However, there is a lady on RUclips who does testing on a ton of products for cleaning (her channel is called Field of Focus). She tests for how well the products kill bacteria, she has a ton of videos on this. She tested both Mrs Meyers and Method for killing Bacteria. Neither of the products makes a claim to kill bacteria, but she tested anyway. The result: Method kills a good number of bacteria in most (not all) places she tests (including toilet rims etc) and Mrs Meyers excelled in all the tested areas. So for me, Mrs Meyers cleans better than Method at the bacterial level on various types of bacteria. However, Method does a good enough job. Just to add to the discussion, not trying to suay one way or the other.
Great test! I love both the cleaners, but like Mrs. Meyers a bit more, as they don’t use added colors in their formula. My husband prefers the smell of Method over Mrs. Meyers though... I also find that the Method is sticky after using it on my counters and kitchen table.. but I still use both of them because I’m so darn indecisive 😂
I know this is old. I’ve used Method for a really long time - probably 15 years - and I’ve never had it be streaky or sticky. It leaves things gleaming and squeaky clean for me!
I like the method cleaner so much. I live in Germany and I ordered them from the US, but now they are available here. Because it was really expensive.. around 7 €. But in Germany it's also around 3 € :) and the scent is so nice. Not so harsh like our cleaners here. :)
Does the mrs meyers have a more decorative bottle? I much prefer the look of the method. And the label of the mrs meyers is not appeasing to the eyes in the slightest
I Like both Method and Mrs. Meyers but I do prefer the Method a bit more there is less of a film and more multi purpose also I prefer there scents some of the Mrs. Meyers scents are a bit too strong for me.
I was one of the couple of us that said the Method left my counters sticky! I have no clue why but it really leaves them icky, maybe because they’re granite? And we have a glass stove top that looks horrendous with the Method. Ugh! But I still use it for my wet dusting and the kitchen table with no sticky icky afterwards. I also love the Antibac! The Method glass cleaner left my sliding door a disaster but my bathroom mirror with no streaks. Maybe it has to do with how clean the surface is? I’m so confused! Thank you for the video!!
It could definitely be that your countertops are granite. Not sure, though, because I don’t have granite countertops. :( I will be testing the stove tops in September. :)
The method all purpose cleaner does not leave my counter sticky but it did leave my tioe floor sticky. It could be the granite as that is closer to ceramic tile.
I like both but the Mrs. Meyers smells more natural to me than Method. My favorite Method scent is Pink Grapefruit and So far, I've only tried two Mrs.Meyers scents the Basil and the Lemon Verbena. I prefer the scent of the LemonVerbena even though it smells nothing like lemon to me. I love the scent! So therapeutic.
I like the Method bottle better, but that’s just me. Also, w the Mrs. Meyer’s, I get one of the big bottles of the non-diluted all purpose cleaner, and dilute it myself, which is a better deal than buying the pre-mixed bottle.
I like Method & Mrs. Meyers products but I only use great value glass cleaner on my glass with a papper towel. I find almost all my glass products streak with a clean microfiber cloth.
I'm not trying to be personal... but cleaning METHOD is everything. There's no product on earth that will clean cooking oil off the first pass. Especially that much on a mirror. Any product would take two passes, or sprays. Then to properly clean a mirror, one must do a z pattern top down so as not to go over clean area with dirty rag twice. Glass and mirrors take a z pattern wipe, not swipe- re swipe, circular patterns. Can't judge a product unless the cleaner knows how to clean.
I use vinegar and water to clean mostly, also use rubbing alcohol wipes. I guess I’m ‘old school’ and little to no chemicals left behind but still sanitized is my goal
Hi Kristin, (sorry if I misspelled your name) I just subbed. I am writing this a year after you posted your review and wanted to share some feedback since I just started using both of these brands this summer and wanted to provide some general feedback on several experiences with both brands and different products within the Method Line. I found these by looking into things that were a little cleaner (no pun intended) for our home environment :) I am direct, so I hope you don't take any offense to my thoughts and I want you to know I appreciate your review and look forward to seeing more content from your channel. The formulas may have changed since your post, and new items may have become available since then. I don't think the glass test was a fair test since glass is tricky to clean in general and there is a specific cleaner in the Method line for cleaning grease, which most people would create in the kitchen environment, not their bathroom, near a mirror, and most would not use either product tested to clean up a greasy mess. I previously had a glass cooktop, and the best way to clean it was with a warm soapy sponge while it was still warm to make that task super easy). I could follow up after it cooled as needed with a cleaner made for that top. Additionally, the all-purpose Method cleaner is more of a glass type cleaner variant of Windex, where I find Mrs. Meyers to be a soapier type product for use on wood, counters, leather furniture, walls, and would not use it for the same cleaning jobs as Mrs. Meyers. The initial purchase of the bottle of the Method of cleaner maybe a little less expensive, however, Mrs. Meyers sells bottles of concentrate so you can refill the initial spray bottle you purchased with some concentrate and water for a fresh batch as needed, so I don't mind the premium paid for the premixed bottle of product since it is reusable and won't go into the trash or a landfill after it is empty. I do like the Method for glass, fixtures, and jobs you would use Windex for and find it to be a superior product than Windex at a far more reasonable price without the ammonia and streaking. Within the Method line, there are a number of specialty cleaners for different jobs (wood floors, granite, stainless / grease, glass, tube & tile). I have a number of them and would not use them interchangeably. Between the two brands, Mrs. Meyers is the better multi-tasker vs. the single Method item, is more economical since it is a concentrate, is safely interchangeable for multiple jobs and better for general cleaning (bathroom counters, fixtures, floors, wood, sealed granite counters, walls, my car, carpet deodorizer, a light mist will deodorize furniture, outdoor furniture, storm doors, etc). I will continue to use the Method multi-purpose cleaner some things, and their stainless/grease cleaner for my commercial gas cooktop and stainless hood and grease filters (works wonders), and keep my Lysol or Clorox for the toilet (no compromising there). I do need to try the Method tub and tile against Mrs. Meyers since the Method product is amazing in the shower and tub! So far this is what seems to work best for me (I don't find a sudsy type product like Mrs. Meyers is appropriate for all jobs and a glass general cleaner like the Method product would not be appropriate for my floors, walls, or other big jobs. I think I will still need a few different types of cleaning products on hand for different jobs but, between the two brands, I am saving a lot of money, getting better results than I was from more expensive brands and am very pleased with the lower number of products I need to buy to keep on hand to keep our home clean! Thanks for the review, I look forward to watching more from you channel and I hope you are not offended at all by my personal experiences with these products (Summer 2019), not sure if formulas changed since you posted. Please forgive any typos - coffee has not kicked in and I am deep into a KonMari method tidying exercise. Never realized I had so much stuff. Can you do something with Borax as a household cleaner? Have a great week! Lynn
Magic Eraser and a dedicated glass cleaning microfiber towel. Don't use it for anything but glass cleaning ever. Use whatever glass cleaner you like but that magic eraser and microfiber towel are the key
I love watching your comparison videos! I have to say that I prefer the look of the method bottle myself. Could you do an oven cleaner and or stainless steel cleaner comparison at some point?
Method is a little bit stronger than mrs. Meyers, mrs. Meyers is supposed to be more natural, but at the end of the day I prefer mrs. Meyers because it leaves such a fabulous sent you can smell it as soon as you walk in someone's house
This is a good example to show how meticulous housewives who use sponges or wash clothes and dilute cleaners merely smear grime, including germs, all around, mistakingly believing they’re doing something beneficial.
I just purchased the mrs. meyers all purpose spray, it is so toxic! My daughter was cleaning the stove and my lungs were burning so much I had to open the door to breathe! I will make my own cleaning supplies!
Nice comparison. I have always bought both but felt "closer" to Mrs. Meyer...Maybe the name personalized it. So I was cheering for her... But I was surprised about the performance. My curiosity is up. Maybe Method contains more water which makes it clean better, cheaper, and everything else... I do love those seasonal scents of Mrs. Meyers... But anyway... thanks a bunch!
I think I will buy mrs Meyers instead method because of scents . I think method is not have much of scents thou. Mrs Meyers and method are all natural with no chemical in it. It will be my first purchase with mrs Meyers also will buy Norwex than other rags....
I have corian countertops, and the Method All Purpose leaves streak marks. I prefer the Mrs Meyers for my countertops. It is streakless. The only Method I can use that is streakless, is the blue formula. I think it is for glass and surface.
Or try Target or Walmart. I stock up when my grocery store does a BOGO a couple of times a year. If I miss it, I buy online from Target when it’s on sale and/or when they have the gift card deals or a Cartwheel deal on cleaning supplies (no Target in my new town😒).
Well try it with a papper towel & see it solves the problem but I do like great value non ammonia glass cleaner better than all the others. I have 4 s on & a hubby so it's tested true
Try the grease test again...the consistency changes with cooking spray when it's cooked on instead of just spray and results vary depending on the surface and what you use to wipe because of friction and things like that... I use a sponge and have never had any issues with either of them...also I have recently switched to a coffee maker that has a reusable filter so I use the paper ones when I clean glass and mirrors and I get great results...also it depends on how diluted the formula is
I am very very shocked. I have never thought of mrs Meyers being nothing but the best. Thank you for your insight I have been on the look for natural cleaning products. I would like to smell that peppermint and honeysuckel you have. ERICA 1800 Hwy 90 Gautier,ms 39553

I have cleaned some really stuck on dirt and grease with Method and I am never disappointed! The stuff works really well!
I was so surprised to hear you say the Mrs Meyer’s bottle was more attractive. I much prefer the Method bottle!
@ Alex I think so as well excessive writing on a bottle just seems cluttered when shown🙄
Thanks for the comparison. I like the way the kitchen smells after using the Mrs. Meyers but it's good to know the Method cleaned better in so many situations.

Always have used Method!!! Love it!!
Mrs Meyers makes its own glass cleaner. The multi surface isn’t for glass so this test isn’t really fair.

I'm not trying to be personal... but cleaning METHOD is everything. There's no product on earth that will clean cooking oil off the first pass. Especially that much on a mirror. Any product would take two passes, or sprays. Then to properly clean a mirror, one must do a z pattern top down so as not to go over clean area with dirty rag twice. Glass and mirrors take a z pattern wipe, not swipe- re swipe, circular patterns. Can't judge a product unless the cleaner knows how to clean.
Mrs. Meyers is hands down the better cleaner.
Enjoyed. I'm amazed too! I love the Mrs. Meyer's Mint smell tho.
Thank you so much for watching. :)
The rag was different on the mirror. I like mrs meyers best. But I use glass cleaner on mirrors
Someone mentioned rubbing alcohol on mirrors and I have been using that recently. It works amazing and no streaks. :)
I tried using method on my mirrors and it smeared and left streaks. White vinegar works better.
I use vinegar and water to clean mostly, also use rubbing alcohol wipes. I guess I’m ‘old school’ and little to no chemicals left behind but still sanitized is my goal
Nothing wrong with that. I am learning more and more about vinegar. It is becoming my best friend. Lol! I am going to do a video on that too.
Thank you for this! I was about to run up a check on Mrs. Meyers for no reason.
I literally just used Meyers to clean my mirror and its beautiful no streaks
Hi Kristin, (sorry if I misspelled your name) I just subbed. I am writing this a year after you posted your review and wanted to share some feedback since I just started using both of these brands this summer and wanted to provide some general feedback on several experiences with both brands and different products within the Method Line. I found these by looking into things that were a little cleaner (no pun intended) for our home environment :) I am direct, so I hope you don't take any offense to my thoughts and I want you to know I appreciate your review and look forward to seeing more content from your channel. The formulas may have changed since your post, and new items may have become available since then. I don't think the glass test was a fair test since glass is tricky to clean in general and there is a specific cleaner in the Method line for cleaning grease, which most people would create in the kitchen environment, not their bathroom, near a mirror, and most would not use either product tested to clean up a greasy mess. I previously had a glass cooktop, and the best way to clean it was with a warm soapy sponge while it was still warm to make that task super easy). I could follow up after it cooled as needed with a cleaner made for that top. Additionally, the all-purpose Method cleaner is more of a glass type cleaner variant of Windex, where I find Mrs. Meyers to be a soapier type product for use on wood, counters, leather furniture, walls, and would not use it for the same cleaning jobs as Mrs. Meyers. The initial purchase of the bottle of the Method of cleaner maybe a little less expensive, however, Mrs. Meyers sells bottles of concentrate so you can refill the initial spray bottle you purchased with some concentrate and water for a fresh batch as needed, so I don't mind the premium paid for the premixed bottle of product since it is reusable and won't go into the trash or a landfill after it is empty. I do like the Method for glass, fixtures, and jobs you would use Windex for and find it to be a superior product than Windex at a far more reasonable price without the ammonia and streaking. Within the Method line, there are a number of specialty cleaners for different jobs (wood floors, granite, stainless / grease, glass, tube & tile). I have a number of them and would not use them interchangeably. Between the two brands, Mrs. Meyers is the better multi-tasker vs. the single Method item, is more economical since it is a concentrate, is safely interchangeable for multiple jobs and better for general cleaning (bathroom counters, fixtures, floors, wood, sealed granite counters, walls, my car, carpet deodorizer, a light mist will deodorize furniture, outdoor furniture, storm doors, etc). I will continue to use the Method multi-purpose cleaner some things, and their stainless/grease cleaner for my commercial gas cooktop and stainless hood and grease filters (works wonders), and keep my Lysol or Clorox for the toilet (no compromising there). I do need to try the Method tub and tile against Mrs. Meyers since the Method product is amazing in the shower and tub! So far this is what seems to work best for me (I don't find a sudsy type product like Mrs. Meyers is appropriate for all jobs and a glass general cleaner like the Method product would not be appropriate for my floors, walls, or other big jobs. I think I will still need a few different types of cleaning products on hand for different jobs but, between the two brands, I am saving a lot of money, getting better results than I was from more expensive brands and am very pleased with the lower number of products I need to buy to keep on hand to keep our home clean! Thanks for the review, I look forward to watching more from you channel and I hope you are not offended at all by my personal experiences with these products (Summer 2019), not sure if formulas changed since you posted. Please forgive any typos - coffee has not kicked in and I am deep into a KonMari method tidying exercise. Never realized I had so much stuff. Can you do something with Borax as a household cleaner? Have a great week! Lynn
The problem with the mrs Meyers is that it doesn't have soap in it and If you gave the method another spray it would work
The prices have definitely increased since I began buying these brands.
compare the bathroom cleaners. Also a homemade all purpose cleaner vs the method
Magic Eraser and a dedicated glass cleaning microfiber towel. Don't use it for anything but glass cleaning ever.
Use whatever glass cleaner you like but that magic eraser and microfiber towel are the key
I love watching your comparison videos! I have to say that I prefer the look of the method bottle myself. Could you do an oven cleaner and or stainless steel cleaner comparison at some point?
Thank you so much. I think I am going to write that down for October. I myself need a goof oven and stainless steel cleaner.
Great video!! Please do a comparison video on Method vs Mrs. Meyers tub & tile cleaner.
I will be sharing my magic cleaner in August that I use for my bathtub. Best stuff ever. My tub has never looked so clean.
Can’t wait.. Thanks!
Would you compare window and glass cleaners? Thanks.
I sure will. I will write that down right now. :)
The Gold Project I would love to see a glass cleaner comparison as well.
Got it down for September. :)
Plain rubbing alcohol cleans mirrors without streaking.
Very good video
Love your vidios ty so much
Method is a little bit stronger than mrs. Meyers, mrs. Meyers is supposed to be more natural, but at the end of the day I prefer mrs. Meyers because it leaves such a fabulous sent you can smell it as soon as you walk in someone's house
I have tried both and I like Mrs Meyers best. I don’t like that method uses dye in their products. Method also doesn’t list their ingredients.
Penny Jackson yes method does it’s at the main bottom
This is a good example to show how meticulous housewives who use sponges or wash clothes and dilute cleaners merely smear grime, including germs, all around, mistakingly believing they’re doing something beneficial.
Did some one run behind u in video in bathroom down the hall I aware I seen someone go by
I just purchased the mrs. meyers all purpose spray, it is so toxic! My daughter was cleaning the stove and my lungs were burning so much I had to open the door to breathe! I will make my own cleaning supplies!
I love Meyers but I can't get pass the smells. They give me headaches.
Nice comparison. I have always bought both but felt "closer" to Mrs. Meyer...Maybe the name personalized it. So I was cheering for her... But I was surprised about the performance. My curiosity is up. Maybe Method contains more water which makes it clean better, cheaper, and everything else... I do love those seasonal scents of Mrs. Meyers... But anyway... thanks a bunch!
I love the seasonal Mrs. Meyer's too. :)
I think I will buy mrs Meyers instead method because of scents . I think method is not have much of scents thou. Mrs Meyers and method are all natural with no chemical in it. It will be my first purchase with mrs Meyers also will buy Norwex than other rags....
You were on the french side :p not spanish ! Love u anyway
LOL!!! That is about right. I didn't even get that right. ;)
Bets comparison! Thank you
Thank you for watching.
I have corian countertops, and the Method All Purpose leaves streak marks. I prefer the Mrs Meyers for my countertops. It is streakless. The only Method I can use that is streakless, is the blue formula. I think it is for glass and surface.
I’m surprised - I have used it over the years on Formica, Corian and quartz without streaking or stickiness on any of them.
In my area method is $8.97 meyers 5.97
Maybe try buying it online through the Grove Collabrative. Less than $4 for either product. (Plus usually free gifts)
Or try Target or Walmart. I stock up when my grocery store does a BOGO a couple of times a year. If I miss it, I buy online from Target when it’s on sale and/or when they have the gift card deals or a Cartwheel deal on cleaning supplies (no Target in my new town😒).
Well try it with a papper towel & see it solves the problem but I do like great value non ammonia glass cleaner better than all the others. I have 4 s on & a hubby so it's tested true
Thank you bunches.
Old newspapers works best and you're recycling as well
Try the grease test again...the consistency changes with cooking spray when it's cooked on instead of just spray and results vary depending on the surface and what you use to wipe because of friction and things like that... I use a sponge and have never had any issues with either of them...also I have recently switched to a coffee maker that has a reusable filter so I use the paper ones when I clean glass and mirrors and I get great results...also it depends on how diluted the formula is
I am very very shocked. I have never thought of mrs Meyers being nothing but the best. Thank you for your insight I have been on the look for natural cleaning products. I would like to smell that peppermint and honeysuckel you have. ERICA 1800 Hwy 90 Gautier,ms 39553
I find Meyer's sprays to be more concentrate, therefore you'll use less product to clean compare to method's.
just switch the top of the bottles so the method bottle looks just as good
Just get Lysol cleaner in bulk and dilute it. Problem solved and cost less than those two combined
