Homemade cleaning products – for the environmentally conscious DIYer
Making your own cleaning products is not only a way to save money, but also a way to reduce your environmental impact. It’s also an easy way to take control of what is used in your home, and it allows you to use natural ingredients that are gentle on both surfaces and health. Here are three recipes for sustainable cleaning products that you can make yourself at home:
All-purpose cleaner with vinegar
Vinegar is an effective and natural cleaner that can be used to remove dirt and stains from surfaces. To make all-purpose cleaner with vinegar, all you need to do is mix 1 dl vinegar and 2 dl water in a spray bottle. Spray the mixture onto the surface you want to clean and wipe it off with a cloth.
Kitchen cleaner with lemon and baking soda
Lemon juice is a natural acid that can be used to remove grease and dirt from kitchen surfaces. Mix 1 dl fresh lemon juice and 1 dl baking soda in a bowl to form a paste. Apply the paste to the surface you want to clean and then wipe it off with a damp cloth.
Window cleaner with vinegar and water
Vinegar is not only great for cleaning surfaces, it can also be used to clean windows. Mix 1 dl white wine vinegar and 2 dl water in a spray bottle and spray it onto the window surface. Wipe it off with a dry cloth or newspaper for a streak-free finish.
Making your own cleaning products is not only an easy way to take care of the environment, it can also be healthier and cheaper. By using natural ingredients, you can avoid chemicals and unnecessary burden on the environment. So next time you need to clean your home, try making your own sustainable cleaning products at home.
