  1. In a 16 oz spray bottle, add peels of 2-3 lemons.
  2. Fill jar with with 1.5 cups of vodka (120 proof or higher).
  3. Ideally, let lemon peels sit it the vodka for 1-2 weeks to get the lemon oil from the peels. If you don’t have the time, you can start using right away.
  4. Shake well and put the spray nozzle on.
  5. To use, spray on surfaces and let sit for a minute to disinfect. Then wipe up with a paper towel.
Note: You can use 70% isopropyl alcohol instead of the vodka. Just be aware of the surfaces you use them on (read more about the top 4 disinfectants below). You can use isopropyl alcohol with a higher alcohol content like 91% and juts add a bit of water to dilute it to 70% if you like.

Now you’ll notice that with drinking alcohol, the alcohol content is noted on the bottles as “proof”. Divide the proof by half to figure out the percentage of alcohol in the bottle. So you’ll want to get drinking alcohol of at least 140 proof for 70% alcohol content. Make sense? Vodka can range from 80 proof to 191 proof. Everclear comes in 120, 151, 189, and 190 proof – ranging from 60-95% alcohol content.

Keep in mind that you can dilute with water to get at least 70% alcohol content. So if you have Everclear at 190 proof (which 95% alcohol), you can use 3 parts of Everclear with 1 part of water content to make a CDC-recommended disinfectant at 70% or more.

If you prefer to use isopropyl alcohol, just be mindful of the ratio. You can do 4 parts of 91% isopropyl alcohol and 1 part water, you would have a homemade disinfectant spray with 72% alcohol (91 x 4/5).

Not exactly. It must also be on more than 1 continent at a time. If it's contained to 1 continent no matter how many countries ... it's still an epidemic.

A pandemic (from Greek πᾶν pan "all" and δῆμος demos "people") is a disease epidemic that has spread across a large region, for instance multiple continents, or worldwide. A widespread endemic disease with a stable number of infected people is not a pandemic. Further, flu pandemics generally exclude recurrences of seasonal flu.

There are a handful of products you can use to naturally disinfect and sanitize your home. You probably already have them in your home. They are all effective in killing germs and sanitizing surfaces and toys. Again, remember if you are following CDC recommendation stick with isopropyl (rubbing) alcohol or ethanol (drinking alcohol like vodka) at 70% or higher alcohol content.

Let’s go over each one and I’ll explain the best places to use them:

1. Hydrogen Peroxide
Hydrogen Peroxide at 3% or higher an be used on most surfaces to disinfect. You can just put a spray nozzle on the bottle to disinfect surfaces like doorknobs, toilet seats, etc. Opt for food-grade hydrogen peroxide to disinfect surfaces that touch food like cutting boards or the lids of canned food you buy from the store.

Avoid using on carpets, upholstery, curtains, and fabrics (unless you want to whiten) as it is a natural bleach and will whiten. But you can use in the laundry if you’re looking to whiten naturally. Check out my DIY Bleach Alternative.

How to use to disinfect: Spray a cloth and wipe down surfaces like computer keyboards, cellphones, doorknobs, toilet seats, etc. to naturally disinfect. Use direct from the bottle or 1:1 dilution with water in a spray bottle. Clean toys by filling a tub half full with water and add about 1-2 cups of. Soak toys for about 30 minutes and then drain and allow to air dry. For laundry, add 1 cup to white clothes or towels and wash as usual in the washing machine with your favorite laundry detergent.

4. Vodka
Vodka (at 140 proof or higher) is a fantastic natural disinfectant on food surfaces like cutting boards and on fabrics like upholstery and curtains. Vodka naturally deodorizes fabrics and carpets, so it’s the cleaner of choice as a DIY Fabric Refresher without the harsh chemicals. It is flammable so take caution when using but it’s great as an all-around disinfectant.

How to use to disinfect: Put a spray nozzle on the bottle and spray direct on surfaces or dilute 1:1 in a spray bottle.

According to dictionary dot com and the health sites just read an epidemic is local and even if it spreads just across the country it is already a pandemic. The Who also defines it this way.

I think the difference between definitions is really splitting hairs to be honest. Bottom line, pandemic means much further spread than epidemic.

No splitting hairs on definitions. Wiki is not a credible source.

epidemic specifically means local or regional (like epicenter) and pandemic simply means it has spread further out.

But we are mostly saying the same thing.

Where I live it's allergy central, tree pollen and mold are through the roof.
Plenty of symptoms for paranoia to creep in.
Flonase to the rescue.

I've been coughing a lot lately myself. More time on hands means more toking which leads to more coughing. I had a morning edible when I woke up this morning instead of my normal morning bowl. Give my lungs a bit of a break lol.

Ok this chit is completely off the hook!
Went to Storz & Bickel to purchase a new Mighty vape and was greeted with this!

PLEASE NOTE: Due to the measures against spreading the flu-Virus, we had to temporarily close our office in Oakland. This will lead to delays in processing your inquiries

Did you already have one of those vapes? Like it?
If I live through this I am getting a new vape, I hate the arizer I got. Which sucks because I had one when that company first started and it was just as good as a volcano. Glass broke on that one so I bought a new one and it's not even close to the same quality all around.

Yes I like them a lot. I'm on my 4th one since '09.
We have a couple Volcanoes also, first one we bought in'07. The non digital variety. They too are great devices.
