ECO-FRIENDLY HOMEMADE HOUSEHOLD CLEANERS
On a daily basis, people use household cleaners that are harmful to the environment. Some use them because they are convenient, and others use them because they believe there is nothing else in place of those cleaners.
The following are some ways household cleaners, that are not harmful to the environment, can be made.
•All purpose cleaner
Use ½ cup of baking soda and 1 cup white vinegar per gallon of water.
Add a dash of liquid castile soap and a dash of two of essential oil.
• Furniture polish
Mix 10-15 drops of lemon or lavender oils with a cup of water. Use rags
sponges, and scrubbers, instead of paper towels.
• Clean drains
Pour 1/3 cup of baking soda, followed by 1/3 cup of vinegar. After
several minutes follow with boiling water.
