Disinfectant

2 cups soap flakes
1 pint pine oil
6 cups hot water

Slowly stir soap flakes into water in a clean glass jar. Stir until the flakes dissolve. Remove suds from the surface or stop stirring until the foam disappears. Pour pine oil in very slowly. Stir until thoroughly blended. Store tightly covered.

For general cleaning and disinfecting, dilute with water. To disinfect areas that harbor a lot of bacteria, such as toilet bowls, use full strength.
