I don’t know about you but I am ready to get some spring cleaning done. I’ve been de-junkifying (a word I made up) my house and now I’m ready to get it deep cleaned. I’ve gathered 10 Essential Oil Household Cleaner Recipes to help me get that spring cleaning done. I’ve been trying to go with more natural product so I don’t have issues breathing while cleaning and find that the essential oils really help me do that.
10 Essential Oil Household Cleaner Recipes
These products are the base for our cleaner recipes:
- Essential oils are your best friend when it comes to making your own cleaners! They not only make your home smell clean they also have cleaning properties in them.
- Vinegar is natural disinfectant and cleaner. You can easily make an all-purpose cleaner using a combination of vinegar and water.
- Rubbing Alcohol does a lot when it comes to cleaning. It’s great for stainless steel, sinks and chrome and is a great disinfectant.
- Baking soda is another natural cleaner. It’s works great for getting rust off of faucets or messy stove tops.
- Castile Soap is natural cleaner for toilets and showers. It’s also great for wood surfaces. Add a few drops of essential oil and you have a great cleaner.
