Compared to Kleen Free and Kleen Green
You can use this product for natural cleaning, but I use it mainly to kill microscopic mites that have been biting me (see my review for Kleen Green if you're interested in my ordeal and how I dealt with it). Having been through that horrific mite infestation, I'm thankful to have found enzyme cleaners to spray on whenever I get a bite, just as a precaution to kill any possible mites on my skin, as well as to kill mites in laundry.Instructions for dilution and use are included, which is nice. It is the same kind of product as Kleen Free: it has a vinegary smell and foams up a bit. I prefer Kleen Green for use on my skin because it doesn't have that smell and doesn't foam as much. However, this was the cheapest of the three. I haven't used it on a big infestation, so I'm not sure on its effectiveness compared to the others. That said, I haven't had an outbreak again. Whether that's from having moved and gotten rid of everything or from using this product, I'm not sure, but I'm satisfied and am continuing to use it.

Best cleaner ever!
I got this last year. Just finished the bottle. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the way this cleans. Especially for the kitchen and bathroom. For tough to clean areas, like say a shower stall, just spray, come back in 10 mins and then wipe. For me, it's just that easy - no more scrubbing. Since this is the concentrate, you can choose to make your batch stronger if you're planning to clean something that is extremely dirty. In the year that I've been using this, I find that it cleans better than the corrosive commercial products I used to use and in the case of my bathroom, it stays cleaner longer. I clean my car interior with it too (when the kiddos spill anything in the back seat) and it gets the seats clean and removes funky odors. Also, this thing eats up mold. I put my shower curtain in the wash with this enzyme cleaner (nothing else) and it came out like new!The product itself doesn't smell good (smells like vinegar and something else) and the smell is strong (to me) but when the product dries all smells are gone -- both the smell of the product and the smell you were trying to get rid of.

Good for pet odors
UPDATE: I increased it a star because it DOES work effectively on stubborn pet odors, like cat urine. It takes multiple sprays and time, but it is more effective than other options. If it was nly sold for this purpose, I may have rated it higher.Still a great disappoint on mold, at the recommended dilution rate, and it has a very strong (offensive) smell/fumes.I tried canceling the order after reading reviews about the smell resembling 'pee', but the cancellation message via Amazon apparently never went through. Although the company said that they would accept it back, unopened, I wasn't sure how much it would cost to return since the bottle is heavy. I decided to try it.First, It does smell A LOT, even at 1 part cleaner to 2 parts water. It is overwhelming, and not a passing odor, by any stretch of the imagination.It strongly smells of vinegar and activated hydrogen peroxide. Which, let's face it, if that is part of the formula, how much more economical is it for you to produce a cleaning agent of your own at around a $1 per large jug of vinegar and similar price for the quart of hydrogen peroxide? The smell is not pleasant or fresh. Not that I like added fragrances to mask odors, I don't. But the smell will make you want to leave a room for a very long time.The good news, then the bad:It works very well on hard water stains, even in the shower, where we have porous/ uneven surfaces. A few sprays knocked some heavy problem areas right out.It seems to be useless at the normal/recommended dilution rate on mold, even after repetitive/multiple sprays. I didn't attempt the full strength yet, that might be more effective, but then we are veering into a very expensive method and very intense odor. I may try it and post back. So far, bleach seems to be the front-runner in the mold race, I was hoping for a less caustic method.It performed no better at eliminating pet odors surrounding the cat's litterbox than Nature's Miracle, (the regular unscented pre-measured diluted version), at the Eradicator recommended dilution rate, but it smells infinitely more. It also increased the odor of the cat urine at first, (which Nature's Miracle also does). That re-activation of intense urine smell eventually did calm down. But after multiple sprays, it never fully eliminated the urine odor. I had high hopes based on the price, and other reviews, but I was disappointed.I haven't used it on any pest problems, but if it can't put a dent in mold, which has no exoskeleton, I can't imagine it truly taking down insects with a hard shell, or their eggs, which are similarly protected.I was told that it would take odor out of fabrics in couches and seats, by a company rep, but I'm not sure if I'm willing to take that gamble, if the smell of the product, itself, would remain in the place of other odors.If I find improvement through more use, I will post back. For now, I can't say I would recommend spending the money on this for effectiveness in cleaning or less obnoxious/noxious odor versus traditional cleaners.

waste of money
I tried this product to remove the odor of urine from an elderly family members clothes. I had tried all of the suggestions I could find online for odor removal. Nothing worked. I have tried MANY products before this one and again, nothing worked. I had hoped this product would work. I tried using different amounts, different wash temperatures, etc. Still did not work. The only thing it did do was leave a strong chemical odor on the clothing. I gave this 1 star because I had to give it something. It does not work as it advertises.

No idea why it works better than chemicals, but it does!
I have used all kinds of chemicals to clean my bathroom wall and tub, some not so expensive, some VERY expensive. We all know chemicals smell bad and not beneficial to our health, but I think I have no choice. My bathroom and tub is very old and full of scratches, so mold, soap scum, calcium from water, a lot of dark spots, no matter how well the cleaner works, it will become dirty again real soon. I don't like to deal with strong chemicals but I think I have no choice if I want to clean it real well. Long story short, I waste a lot of money and have to tolerate a lot of different chemicals. Today, I cleaned my bathroom and tub with Nature's Eradicator. It cleans as well as the best chemicals I have tried and better than most others. So, I am switching to this cleaner to save money (it requires less), save efforts (just spray on leave it there for over 10 minutes, light scrub and rinse), and most important it is more healthy and safer than most if not all other chemical cleaners. Definitely 5 Stars!
