Favorite Natural Cleaning Product This Week

Know what my favorite natural cleaning product is this week? Pet Odor Eliminator by Unique Manufacturing (POE). Know why it is my favorite? Because our beloved DJ (our Lab-Husky Mix) was running through the hallway yesterday and I wondered why Bobette (our cat) was freaking out at him. Because he vomited.

DJ has an anxiety disorder and the nervous stomach to go with it. So, if he drinks too much water, finds something in the neighbor's yard to eat or for many other unexplained reasons, he tends to vomit. So, I mixed warm water with the POE (10:1 water to POE so it goes a long way), poured it on the carpet, put a warm, moist white towel on the floor and went to work. When I got home, no more odor and the stain was gone. This is an enzyme product, so it is safe to use anywhere. As you may have read in previous blogs, we also use it directly on DJ. It has so many uses, I hope you'll pick up a bottle soon.

Small business connections

I love to shop online. I love to shop when the mood strikes me, when I have insomnia, when I notice I'm out of something or when I have nothing else to do. Online also works for me because I work during the hours a lot of small businesses are open. This all fits with shopping online. As an avid online shopper, however, I sometimes miss out on the opportunity to support local businesses, which may also be family-owned. So.....I was wondering if anybody knows of any directory or organization that connects small, family-owned businesses with each other. I am interested in businesses in Oklahoma City, but also other family-owned e-commerce or online retailers and businesses. So, if you are one or know of one or know of a site, list or organization that would connect us, please let me know. I want to do my part to support the other family businesses.

Jim Rimer founded Biokleen in 1989.

As a previous sales representative of cleaning chemicals in the commercial and industrial industry he became more and more aware of the dangers of the products he was selling and the ingredients they contained.

He saw first hand his chemicals were creating health problems for his customers, causing negative effects - including cancer - on families and pets in the homes and businesses where these supplies were being used. Jim was selling poison and this realization shook him to the core. Jim's drive to take a stand and make a difference helped motivate him to study chemistry. With his newfound knowledge and driven passion he formulated his first cleaner using natural, non-toxic ingredients. Today Biokleen continues to develop and create innovative products, which still measure up to Jim's beliefs and standards:

  • Effectiveness
  • Concentration
  • Non-Toxic
  • Environmentally Safe
