DIY Cleaning—It’s better for the environment.

DIY Cleaning—It’s better for the environment. 

Now that you’re unsure of what type of cleaning supplies you should use, here are some tips on how to clean with things you may already have laying around your house.

Vodka:

Found to be good to clean glass, porcelain and chrome, just grab a rag, some cheap vodka (poured into a spray bottle) and go to town. Worried about your house smelling terrible? Don’t you worry, the smell will fade when it dries.

            With  3 parts water, 1 part white vinegar, 1-2 teaspoons of lemon juice and 5-7 drops of essential oil (if desired sent) you can use this cleaning product for just about any surface.

Soap and Water:

Homemade cleaner:       

              For something more complex surface, like stainless steel, a simple 1 part vinegar 2 parts water mix and microfiber cloth can clean the surface. As long as you wipe off the grain you will get a beautifully clean stainless steel appliance. 

 When in doubt a little bubbles and damp rag  can get a lot done around the house. You don’t need those crazy cleaners around the house, that simple solution will do the job.
