Most of a house can be cleaned with Mr Clean's Clean Freak for oily surfaces and dried food, and all purpose cleaner.
All purpose cleaner: 70% isopropyl alcohol, 5-6 drops of dawn dish soap.
Youtuber buys >90% strength and dilutes as needed.
70% alcohol is needed to kill microbes along with some water to get microbes to eat it.
Don't use APC on wood.
