Keeping your home neat and tidy is a lot of work. You have to make sure that you are using effective products (most of the time, harmful chemicals) to make sure that you remove all the stain and grimes. It is overwhelming, especially when you have kids. You want to make sure that you use a safe product as much as possible but still can effectively clean your home. You will find a lot of guides and articles about natural home cleaning, but you can find it inside your cabinet or your kitchen.
Here are the usual ingredients that you commonly have in your home:
Vinegar
It is one of the basic supply that we have in the kitchen. It is no surprise that it can be an effective ingredient for cleaning. The high acidity level of vinegar helps release mineral sediments, such as lime and rust, and melt soap scum due to their alkalinity, so it is best for bathroom and kitchen cleaning. It is also great for removing oil on ovens, cooktops, stoves, and grills, and it quickly removes wax build-up off of wood floors. Also, a vinegar soak makes it easy to eliminate stains, such as coffee and tea, from kitchen basins, cups, and coffee makers. It is also helpful for deodorizing and removing kitchen and bathroom odors as a simple spritz of a vinegar-water solution will prove. And it is also be added to the laundry rinse cycle as a fabric softener.
Lemon
Lemon is a wonderful cleaning agent like vinegar. The acid in lemons is antibacterial and antiseptic, and it acts as natural bleach. The citrus smell of lemon is refreshing and relaxing. Oils in the rinds can also help to clean and shine. Add a little salt, and you can throw away many of the strong, chemical-based products in your cleaning caddy. You can use it with salt, vinegar, and baking soda to remove hard stains, grimes and grease.
Baking Soda
Baking soda, also known as sodium bicarbonate, is widely used in baking. This is because it has leavening properties, meaning it causes dough to rise by producing carbon dioxide. Aside from cooking, baking soda has a variety of additional household uses and health benefits. Baking soda can help neutralize odors, it can also be use as air freshener when mixed with your favorite essential oils. Since it is an alkali, it helps remove stains and whiten your laundry. Baking soda is so versatile, that you can also use it to remove kitchen stains and greases.
