Introduction:
Tired of dull floors and grimy grout lines that just won’t come clean no matter how hard you scrub? With this simple, all-in-one homemade cleaning solution, you can achieve sparkling floors and spotless grout in a single session. No harsh chemicals, no multiple steps—just clean, fresh results with minimal effort.
Ingredients:
1 cup baking soda
1/2 cup white vinegar
1 tablespoon dish soap (preferably lemon or citrus-scented)
5-10 drops essential oil (optional, for fragrance – tea tree or lavender work well)
Warm water (enough to fill a mop bucket or spray bottle)
Instructions:
Mix the cleaner: In a mop bucket or large container, add baking soda, dish soap, and vinegar. Slowly add warm water to avoid foaming over. Stir gently.
Add fragrance: If using, add essential oils and mix again.
Apply the solution: For tile floors, dip a mop into the solution and wring out slightly before use. For grout, pour the mixture into a spray bottle and spray directly onto the grout lines.
Let it sit: Allow the solution to sit on the grout lines for 5–10 minutes to break down grime.
Scrub and mop: Use a stiff-bristle brush for grout and a mop for floors. Scrub gently but thoroughly.
Rinse (optional): You can rinse with clean water for a residue-free shine, though it’s not necessary.
