In reply to Diana. Yes. You can put the Thieves Cleaner in either tank. I put it in the rinse tank to make it easier. You can do the wash tank, but it is usually smaller.

So when you say that you put one cap for per fill, do you mean you just put one cup full per container of water in your steam machine each time you fill it up with water ? So my steamer has a wash side in a ring side I am guessing I would just put one cup full into the rinse side and just use that to clean the carpet.

[…] The Bissell machine came with some free chemicals and I did use them to begin with; however, all I could then smell was that unpleasant chemical smell. I researched a little and came across a lady who actually used Thieves essential oils cleaner in a steam cleaning machine and so I tried using a capful of the thieves cleaner to the water reservoir instead. Was much better and still did the job. This is now my method. So much better for everyone using chemical free cleaners. You can read about how grotty this lady’s floors were before and after here ‘Carpet Cleaning with Young Living Thieves Cleaner’. […]

In reply to Ashley Aubel. My other thought would be that it is maybe the pad under the carpet. And when you got it wet it “woke up” something that is in that pad. I don’t know that there is a way to clean the pad under the carpet. So, I’d likely try cleaning the carpet again and see if the second time is better or if it still seems bad.

In reply to Ashley Aubel. Was the carpet soaked when you were done? Some carpet cleaners don’t pull the water completely out of the carpet, so the smell could be from that. If the carpet itself smells, I’d clean it again and make sure I got all the water out of the carpet. (Or I’d call ZeroRez and have them do it if I didn’t think I could get the water out myself.)

I used thieves to clean a room. Washed several times and rinsed. The carpet smells bad now. I can’t explain it. Has anyone else has this problem. I was hoping to avoid fragrances in my son’s room. Now it smells rancid. The thieves itself smelled nice and spicy. The carpet is also stiff, not soft. But I did use a bunch. It was heavy with traffic stains.

In reply to Mindy Stevens. I have not had a professional cleaning with Thieves. I have had a professional cleaning with water only. We did not have a flooded area, just typical dirty carpets from kids and pets, but they were able to get it really clean with zero chemicals. You can always ask if they are up for using Thieves cleaner, but if they aren’t, you could ask for a no chemical company to clean it and then spray it after with a diluted Thieves cleaner yourself. I’m not a carpet cleaning professional, so I’m. It even sure what is in their usual antimicrobial cleaning solutions.

We just had an inch of water in our basement (for less then 8 hours) before clean up started. It was just sump pump switch broke. We immediately sucked up the standing water with a shop vac and spent 7 hours removing everything from basement. Insurance was called and a professional cleaning company called in. They sucked everything up set up blowers under carpets, fans along each wall & door frame and a professional dehumidifier in every room. Now they are wanting to come in and clean the carpets and apply an anti microbial and I say no way I don’t want anything scented or chemical filled in my home. So I’m reaching out and asking you if you are at all familiar with professional cleaning done with thieves cleaner because I have to convince them that this is what they’re going to do.
