I have always used a small amount of whole milk and water to do a great job cleaning my house plants. Its hard work but its worth it. I fill up a bowl with warm water and add enough milk to make it look cloudy and then use a cotton ball and go to work. Your plants will look like you wiped them with vaseline they come out so clean. Make sure you have enough milk on hand because the water will get dirty pretty quick if you havent cleaned the leaves in awhile. I've read that its the fat in the milk that helps clean the dirt and slime off the leaves. So heres the proof since I havent cleaned mine since spring ( Shame On Me )
Heres the before the milk bath LOL
