        I recently put an organic lemon essential oil in my disinfectent, I think I used about 30 drops. It takes the edge off the tea tree oil.

        Also Kimberly, I use the disinfectent or just dish soap to clean out my garbage can then put a few drops of the lemon oil. It actually smells like lemon when I open the lid to throw something away! I like the lemon scent but I'm sure you could use any essential oil you like.
