Homemade Cleaning Products - Part 2

I have been on holiday and am now back so to continue on from the last post about using everyday chemicals to clean. I believe I was up to the bathroom?

Mirrors: To get that mirror shiny scrunch a sheet of newspaper into a ball and add a little vinegar, wipe down the mirror clean, if that doesn't work use mentholated spirits. If you have a problem with fogging use a little eucalyptus oil after to repel the moisture.

Grout Mold: Use an old toothbrush your not doing to use in your mouth after and dip it in a strong solution of epsom salts or you can even use dry Bi-Carb-Soda and scrub away.

Toilet: If you are up to cleaning the toilet often than hot soapy water will be fine or add eucalyptus oil for a disinfectant effect. For a stronger toilet to clean the inside of the bowl pure 1 cup of white vinegar around the bowl of the toilet and let sit over night, then scrub the next day and if badly stained use a scour and Bi-Carb-Soda.

For a nice smell in the loo add a drop of essential oil so when the light is on it activates the perfume.

Laundry

Washing Mechine: To clean the soap build-up place 4 litres of vinegar for a top loader or 2 litres for a front loader and put it through a full cycle.

Pre-wash Spray:

1/3 Cloudy Ammonia, 1/3 Water & 1/3 Dish Washing Liquid. Mix and spray using a spray bottle
.

Bleach Alternatives

1 cup of lemon juice in half a bucket of water
or
1 tablespoon of metho in a full bucket of water
or
1 cup of salt in full bucket of water.
