5 Chemical-free Cleaning Products

In recent years,  organic cleaning products have grown in popularity,  and these products are often replacing store-bought cleaning products filled with aggressive chemicals.

In addition to being a trend, natural ingredients have become some of the most convenient options for caring for both health and the environment.

Although companies that manufacture chemical products deny the harmfulness of their products, more and more research is showing an association between these products and an increased risk of developing many types of diseases. They are also one of the biggest causes of environmental pollution, as residues of chemical products cause permanent damage to nature.

Fortunately, however, there are a number of home-made products that are inexpensive and can very well be used as a chemical substitute for home cleaning.

So today we would like to share with you these   cleaning products that you should start using for cleaning your home as soon as possible!

1. Floors and table tops

Floors and kitchen countertops generally collect a lot of dirt and a large amount of bacteria, which can be harmful to health.

In order to disinfect these surfaces, you should combine the antibacterial effects of baking soda and vinegar. There are other similar products, and in addition, these help whiten stains.

Necessary ingredients

• 125 ml of white wine vinegar
• 125 ml of water
• 2 tablespoons baking soda
• 1 tablespoon pine essential oil

Do this:

• Put all the ingredients in a clean bowl and mix them well.
• When you have finished the mixture, spray it on the surfaces you want to clean and rub with a cloth, sponge or brush.

2. Bathroom and shower tiles

The tiles in the shower and bathroom collect mold and dirt as they are in a very humid environment, which promotes the formation of mold.

One easy way to disinfect this area and leave it in good condition is to  dilute a little baking soda and hydrogen peroxide.  Definitely worth a try!

Necessary ingredients

• 60 ml of hydrogen peroxide (3%)
• 125 grams of baking soda
• 1 tablespoon of liquid soap

Do this:

• Pour baking soda into hydrogen peroxide, and also add liquid soap.
• Once the ingredients are mixed, take the amount you need and rub the surfaces you want to clean with a sponge.

• If the dirt is very badly attached, apply the liquid to the surfaces and leave it on for 10 minutes.
• Rinse with plenty of water and you will see the difference very clearly!

3. Windows

Glass cleaning products contain chemicals that can cause allergic reactions. Rubbing windows using a newspaper and water is one easy way to replace these chemical products.

However, if this doesn’t work because the windows are very dirty, you can also try the following:

Necessary ingredients

• 1 tablespoon baking soda
• 100 ml of water

Do this:

• Pour baking soda into half a glass of water, then pour the liquid into a spray bottle.

• Mix all ingredients well, and use liquid to clean plates, pans and other kitchen utensils.

5. Refrigerator

In order to prevent contamination of your refrigerator and unpleasant odors, it is advisable to do a thorough cleaning every now and then.

Baking soda, which has some excellent properties for cleaning this appliance , is well suited for disinfection and removal of trapped food debris.

Necessary ingredients
