With so many cleaning products on the market today, it can be difficult to determine which ones you actually need. Buying a different product for every single surface you need to wash can make cleaning costly. Luckily, many common cleaners can be replicated with simple ingredients that you likely already own. Here are a few do-it-yourself cleaning products you can make at home.
- Floor Cleaner - While certain flooring may require specialty cleaners to avoid damage, most hard floors can be washed with a simple mixture of vinegar and water. Make this cleaner by mixing one half cup of distilled white vinegar with one gallon of water. You can also add in a tablespoon or two of scented dish soap if you want to diminish the vinegary smell.
- Glass Cleaner - Vinegar and water can be used to clean many surfaces and glass is no exception. Mix together equal parts distilled white vinegar and water in a spray bottle and you have a quick and easy homemade cleaner for your windows and mirrors.
- All-Purpose Spray Cleaner - You can make an all-purpose spray cleaner for wiping countertops, tables, and just about any other hard surface by combining one cup of distilled white vinegar with four tablespoons of baking soda and an optional ten to fifteen drops of lemon essential oil.
