Sustainable Cleaning: DIY Pine Solution for Home and Animal Care

Homesteading enthusiast Davian McKnight recently shared an innovative and eco-friendly method for creating a natural pine cleaner, offering a sustainable alternative to commercial products. In a widely viewed video, McKnight meticulously demonstrates the process, which involves three primary ingredients: fresh pine needles, sliced lemons, and white vinegar. He explains the steps, from gathering pine needles to combining them with lemons and vinegar in a jar, emphasizing a two-week steeping period to extract the natural oils and disinfecting properties. McKnight highlighted the cleaner's dual utility, stating, "I use it in my house, but I also use it to clean down my quail coop, their trays, and for their wood chips to reduce the ammonia smell." This initiative underscores a growing public interest in self-sufficiency and chemical-free living, providing practical solutions for maintaining a clean environment both indoors and in animal habitats.
