Introduction:
When it comes to keeping your home spotless, limescale in the bathroom and grease in the kitchen can be some of the toughest challenges. These persistent stains seem to appear out of nowhere and are often difficult to remove with standard cleaning products. But there’s a simple, cost-effective solution that works better than bleach: a powerful homemade cleaner that cuts through both limescale and kitchen grease effortlessly. In this article, we'll show you how to create a DIY cleaner that is both effective and safe for your home.
Ingredients:
1 cup white vinegar
1 cup water
2 tablespoons baking soda
10 drops lemon essential oil (optional for fragrance)
1 tablespoon dish soap (preferably grease-cutting)
Directions:
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, combine the white vinegar and water. Stir gently to mix.
Slowly add the baking soda into the liquid mixture. Be cautious, as it will bubble up. Stir until the baking soda has dissolved completely.
Add the dish soap and lemon essential oil (if using). The dish soap helps break down grease, while the lemon essential oil adds a fresh scent.
Pour the mixture into a spray bottle for easy application.
Serving and Storage Tips:
Serving: Spray the cleaner generously onto limescale buildup in the bathroom, or onto greasy surfaces in the kitchen. Allow it to sit for a few minutes before scrubbing with a sponge or cloth.
Storage: Store the remaining cleaner in a cool, dark place. It can be stored for up to 2 weeks, but it’s best used fresh for maximum effectiveness.
