Edited: Ok, I wan't having much luck with the "where did you buy yours" question, lol!
So I am guessing you all make yours?
How do you make it? which Oils do you use and about how much of each?
And, where do you get your oils from?
Thanks everyone!
I would like to try this for general cleaning and disinfecting. My favorite esential oil supplier doesn't carry it, can anyone recommend a good place to get some?

I put together my own "thieves" blend with single oil. I buy most of my essential oils from
http://www.libertynatural.com/ in Portland. Minium order $50 (too easy to meet) & they ship UPS.

"Thieves" is a name for a blend of essential oils that can be used for a variety of things including household cleaning.
You can blend your own by looking at a bottle of one that you have purchased and deciding what proportions you want to use of each eo. Remembering that the first listed is the most quantity.

Vinegar of the four thieves is a very old recipe dating back to the "black plague" times in England. There are many variations.
The essential oil "thieves" combination is a little different with different company's. No one having a holding on the "thieves" recipe.
Regardless of which you use, herb or essential oil, both are very effective. I have them another vinegar version that we call Dragon's Breath. You can imagine why. If anyone wants the recipe I'm happy to share.

The thought of dragon's breath rather takes my breath away and for some reason my eyes want to water :-) I look forward to seeing what makes dragon's breath....well, dragon's breath.
Thank you - Karen

Dragon’s Breath
This is another version of Anti-Plague. At the first sign of illness take 1 tsp. 3 times daily to 1 Tbsp. every 1/2-hour, until symptoms subside. It makes a wonderfully spicy salad dressing mixed with equal parts olive oil with a little sea salt. Or add a splash or two into a bowl of soup or legume dishes.
Blend equal parts chopped:
-White onions or the hottest onions available, fresh chopped (similar to Garlic)
-Garlic cloves, fresh chopped (Anti-Bacterial, Anti-Fungal, Anti-Viral and Anti-Parasitic)
-Ginger root, fresh grated (Circulation – Extremities)
-Horseradish root, fresh grated (Circulation – Extremities)
-Cayenne peppers, fresh chopped (Circulation – Head)
-Parsley, chopped (Diuretic)
Fill a glass jar 3/4 of the way with equal parts of the above chopped herbs,
then fill to the top with apple cider vinegar. Close and shake vigorously. Shake daily for 14 days. (This mixture can remain unstrained and stored in your pantry until ready to use) Strain out and mix with equal part honey. Store in refrigerator.
