And now that we know the benefits of some natural household cleaning products, how can we use them? Here are some options that will help you a lot:

Multipurpose cleaner: there is nothing better than having a cleaner at home that works for different purposes. To prepare it you will need:

• ¼ cup of white vinegar

• 1 liter of hot water

Combine all the ingredients in an open container and create the best homemade surface cleaner. You can put the mixture in a spray bottle for easier use.

Important: avoid adding the vinegar and baking soda in a spray bottle or closed container as these two ingredients, when mixed together, generate a lot of bubbles that can cause the spray bottle to explode.

• ¼ cup of hot water

• 1 tablespoon of baking soda

Put all the ingredients in a spray bottle and mix very well. You can start by adding a few drops of the essential oil and test the air freshener until it has the scent intensity you want.

Glass cleaner: surely you have already noticed that, when cleaning glass, fingerprints and marks are left behind that make it look dirtier than it was. Prepare a glass cleaner that you will love with the following products: 

• The peel of a lemon

• A bottle of vinegar

Put the lemon peels into the vinegar and let it sit for a week. When the time has passed, take out the peels and mix equal parts of vinegar and water in a spray bottle and you are done.
