Just thought I would share some recipes for household cleaning that are easy and inexpensive to make. Have you checked out how many spray cleaners you have at home? Here are a couple of recipes that will get you started and save you a heap of money. You can re use your spray bottles or buy new flash ones. I find the ones you find in the gardening section of DIY stores to be the most cost effective and last the longest.
This is anti-bacterial, anti-viral and smells divine if you add some essential oil. My favourite is sweet orange, but peppermint comes a close second. I use this everywhere, on tables, bench tops, in bathrooms & the shower. Though if you have stubborn soap scum, consider switching to a less processed soap. Also try using my paste, recipe coming soon.
Spray & Wipe
Supermarkets sell something similar for arguments sake I will call it j!f for $4.00 / 500ml. I should think this recipe costs less than 25c. per bottle.. spray on....
1 tsp white vinegar
1 tsp washing up liquid
1 tsp baking soda ( if you get too many bubbles, back off on this)
few drops of essential oil
top up the bottle with water.
You can even give the kids the bottle and a cloth and get them to clean up. There are no nasties in it!
Window cleaner
1 part vinegar
2 parts water
a wee drop of washing up liquid
Polish with a micro fleece cloth.
