Introduction: Cleaning your home is an essential task, but finding the right cleaner for tough stains and grime can often be overwhelming. Commercial heavy-duty cleaners can be effective, but they are often filled with harsh chemicals that can irritate your skin and respiratory system. Why not make your own all-purpose heavy-duty cleaner using simple ingredients that you probably already have in your kitchen? This DIY cleaner works wonders on various surfaces, including countertops, sinks, bathroom tiles, and even stovetops, offering a non-toxic, affordable, and eco-friendly solution for your cleaning needs.
In this article, we’ll show you how to make an effective, all-natural heavy-duty cleaner that tackles tough dirt and grease while being safe for the entire family.
Ingredients:
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
2 tablespoons baking soda
1 tablespoon liquid dish soap (preferably unscented)
