So, we had the dreaded talk about the harm of many household cleaners just a few weeks ago, now it’s time to talk about some alternatives. You didn’t think that we’d just give you a problem and no solution, did you?
When You’re Looking for an All- Purpose Cleaner
Mix 2 Tbsp baking soda with 1 pint warm water in a spray bottle. Add a squeeze of lemon juice or a splash of vinegar to cut grease.
Bye, Windex
Grab an empty spray bottle and mix 1/4 cup of vinegar, 2 cups of water and put in a few drops of environmentally friendly dish soap. Your windows will have that streak free shine while you have a clear conscious.
Cut the Cost of Toilet Bowl Cleaner
Ok all you need for this one is… 1/4 cup baking soda and 1 cup vinegar, yup that’s it!
Scrub-a dub the Tub
This one’s pretty simple, get your bathtub wet and then sprinkle some baking soda inside. This will create a textured paste perfect for scrubbing. You can also use this method on tile.
Let the Floor Shine
For a really basic floor cleaner, mix equal parts white vinegar and hot water. If you need a more specific floor cleaner checkout these cleaning recipes.
