A World Of Wipes #FathersDay2025

We love working with local brands. We adore Minnesota Made products, as that is "home" to us, but now that we are settling in to Florida nicely (we have been here almost 5 years, wow!) we are falling in love with Florida Brands! Boca Raton's A World of Wipes (known for Wipex and Dutch Harbor Brands) is one of the newest brands we have discovered.

They have a new tactical wipe that Jason is dying to try! Perfect for those Dad's for Father's Day! Made with premium lint-free fabric and infused with MIL-SPEC MIL-PRF-32033 (NATO-O190) Lubricating Oil, these unique wipes turn routine gun maintenance into an easy single-step process that leaves firearms lubricated and in gunsmith-grade condition. EREZ Tactical Firearm Wipes have been designed based on advanced Israeli military expertise, drawing on Israel’s expansive weapons industry, renowned for its excellence and quality. The wipes’ textured cloth can reach every crevice for a thorough clean, while their advanced hydrophobic properties protect metal against moisture damage. The result is a cost-effective and simple-to-use wipe for all environments. These wipes ensure that firearms remain protected for years while simplifying maintenance for all gun owners, from beginners to experts.

We got to try some of the Wipex brand items and are so pleased; they all fit perfectly into our family lifestyle! Wipex Be Grounded Natural Wet Floor Wipes – Made with natural ingredients like rosemary essential oils and vinegar. Now you can make that floor sparkle while treating it with a lovely rosemary scent. Perfect for cleaning on the go or wherever you feel most comfortable. We have all hardwood floors, and in our climate and environment, we are constantly cleaning the floors! This makes it so much easier! I also love the play on the name! *wink*

Wipex Auto Interior Car Cleaning Wipes – These Auto Interior Wipes, with a plant-based lavender formula, safely clean and protect car interiors with a non-greasy, matte finish, fit conveniently for on-the-go use, and shield against UV damage. These are perfect for my new car, heh heh. And okay, for Callan's new car too. When the teenager starts driving and has their own car, wipes are for sure needed!

Wipex Table Bussers – Natural Table & Counter Cleaning Wipes for Restaurants, Schools, Households, and more! Constantly using dirty rags or endless rolls of paper towels to clean surfaces? (Yes!) Using harsh chemical sprays around food or family? Wipex Table Bussers are single-use table wet wipes. Highly effective, kid & pet-safe, 100% natural, and leaves the scent of fresh cinnamon & clove. The bucket is huge, and it will last a good while. And we use wipes for everything! I feel confident using these on not only my kitchen surfaces, but other areas too, if needed. Lifesaver in a busy household!

De Novo Lint Brush

De Novo is a family-owned and operated small business. They have two toddlers, and their son has a genetic anomaly, which is how they came up with the name De Novo, which means, mutation, an alteration in a gene. Their aim is to provide customers the very best self-cleaning lint brush, in the industry. To do that they thoroughly check the quality of goods, working only with reliable suppliers so that you only receive the best quality product.

 De Novo Back-to-Basics Lint Brush - The pet hair is real. The lint is real. The solution: De Novo Back-to-Basics Lint Brush with Wooden Handle. This lint brush is the best thing that ever happened to your home! It's designed to give you the most effective and fastest way to easily clean up those big messes. Featuring a beautiful wooden handle, the lint brush is sure to look great in your home - and makes it so easy to clean the mess. It’s the perfect lint brush for your home and for your life. After you use this lint brush, you'll wonder how you ever lived without it! When it comes to cleaning up lint and pet hair, this lint brush is a game-changer. A great gift for any home and office.

I was really excited to try this, because I had heard such good things about it. And it does work great on our couch that has a similar fabric to the brush itself. So that was great. But it did not work well in the car (suede), so that was a bummer. And Jason had to remind me that it says for Home and Office, not for Car, so blah! And then he argued with me that it was dust brush (because it was soft) and not a lint brush and I whacked him with it, so it was good for that. But, all in all, it works on the couch - and as a weapon. So there ya go!

Spring Cleaning With Lysol #Springtime2016

It’s no secret that babies love to touch things – young children can touch and re-touch more than 300 surfaces in just 30 minutes – and that they take a liking to objects like TV remotes, shoes, or cell phones, increasing the size of a baby’s germ network. To help educate new parents across the country about germs, Ali Larter, mother of two and actress, has come up with several tips to creating a healthier home environment – while still letting baby’s curiosity thrive.

· Understand the Size of Your Baby’s Social Network.

“Recently, I learned that my baby’s social network is bigger than my own. I’m not talking about Twitter, or Instagram, but the number of germs that she comes into contact with every day. It’s important to be aware of these “followers” and to kick them out of the home by disinfecting commonly touched surfaces with products that kill 99.9% of germs like Lysol Disinfecting Wipes so you can have peace of mind and focus on the fun parts of being a new parent!”

· Create a Germ Free Runway.

“My kids’ curiosity and desire to explore is high these days. Whether they are crawling, playing, or running around, they’re constantly coming into contact with the floors in our house. One of the simplest ways to help create a healthier runway for their play is to keep germs at a minimum outside and have guests take off their shoes before entering the home.”

· Know when to disinfect.

“In addition to regularly disinfecting commonly touched surfaces, it’s important to disinfect areas after making a mess. When I’m cooking with my kids, and we accidentally break raw eggs on the counter, that’s a mess that needs to be cleaned up and disinfected! Raw eggs are at risk of housing bacteria that cause foodborne illnesses, which is definitely something a mom wants to avoid.”
