Yes that definitely wouldn’t fit!

I’ve also used my Nature Clean peroxide bleach in a spray bottle on my mat. It’s what I use on my kitchen counters.

KateTT: Try a mix of vinegar and Tea Tree oil in water - the vinegar is excellent for cleaning and deodorizing, the Tea Tree will disinfect. AND no harsh chemicals! Won't break down the rubber on the mat either.

This sounds like something I am going to try. Could you tell me how much of each you usually mix for a single yoga mat.

I mix about 2 cups of water, approx 1/4 cut of vinegar and approx 12 drops of essential oil. This will give you much more than you need for just one mat. But if you put it in a container, it will last. I mix it up in an old spray bottle and just keep in on hand when I need it.

Thanks KateTT for the mix instructions.
I will be mixing this up with different essential oils as you suggested.
Love to have something that is natural.

Is this hydrogen peroxide?
