While spring-cleaning, ditch those bottles and containers filled with harmful chemicals and substitute them with these do-it-yourself products made from these three common household items!
Vinegar
This all-purpose ingredient can be used for cooking AND as a miracle substitute for most toxic cleaning products. Vinegar can be mixed with equal parts water and poured into a reusable spray bottle to combat heavy messes and prevent bugs.
Baking Soda
Thanks to its gritty texture, baking soda is the perfect ingredient to combine with vinegar in order to create a foam cleaner to get rid of tough stains and heavy grease. Baking soda can also be mixed with organic castile soap to tackle bathroom surfaces and tile.
Lemons
When life hands you lemons, use them to dust and polish wooden furniture, clean stainless steel and remove sticky residue from labels. Learn more about how this citrus fruit can be used as an all-natural homemade cleaning product here.
