Whether you’re trying to pinch pennies or clean in a pinch, here are 3 Amazing DIY Household Cleaning Products that work! Cleaning isn’t everyone’s favorite thing to do, but it’s something all renters and homeowners must take responsibility for. No one wants to come home after a long day to settle into a mess, and it’s not the best environment to welcome guests.
But it can be hard to clean your home well if you’re out of cleaning products or don’t feel like going to the store on your day off. If these are your biggest excuses for not cleaning, it’s time to get into the kitchen and make a few DIY household cleaning products.
You can make many cleaning solutions with just a few simple items you likely have in your pantry. These are simple to use, much safer than standard cleaning products, and cheaper!
Create Household Cleaning Products Effectively at Home
Glass Cleaner
It only takes a few seconds to wipe down your mirror, and it probably won’t take as long as you think to clean all the windows in your home. But you need a reliable cleaner to do this with!
Good thing all you have to do is boil some water and grab a bit of white vinegar. Combine these two ingredients into a spray bottle, and you’re ready.
The heat of the water activates the vinegar’s cleaning properties and helps make this cleaning solution as streak-resistant as possible. It makes your mirrors and windows shine without a dull look.
Tile Cleaner
Save your water and vinegar combination once it cools down. It won’t be as effective for cleaning glass at room temperature, but you can turn it into a tile cleaner. You may even want to add an essential oil like orange oil or peppermint to make your home smell as fresh and clean as it will look. This cleaner works great for tile flooring and wood floors, and it’s only one ingredient away from becoming your go-to carpet cleaner.
Fabric Cleaner
It would help if you had baking soda to clean stains on the carpet, furniture, or even your clothes. Baking soda activates other ingredients in your DIY cleaners to help them lift stains off fabrics. Use baking soda, white vinegar, and water for carpet and furniture to get the desired results. Essential oils are optional.
You’ll need to add some hydrogen peroxide and salt to the mixture for clothes. Also, apply this mixture to the stained area, not the entire t-shirt or dress you’re cleaning.
How to Get the Most Out of Your 3 Amazing DIY Household Cleaning Products
DIY household cleaning products only work when you use them. You can put in as much effort as you’d like when making them, but that will do you no good if all they do is sit on the shelf.
The secret to keeping a clean house is to make the time to clean. It’s one thing to take 10 minutes out of your day to make the products on this list and another to spend an hour checking off everything on your cleaning to-do list. Luckily, that’s where we come in.
