Natural, budget-friendly, and surprisingly effective!
Baking soda isn’t just for baking — it’s a multi-tasking powerhouse for natural home cleaning. Safe, affordable, and eco-friendly, it helps cut through grime, remove odors, and tackle bathroom buildup without harsh chemicals.
Here are three easy recipes to help you ditch the commercial cleaners and go green at home.
🧴 Great for: kitchen counters, sinks, fridge shelves, doorknobs
2 tablespoons of baking soda
2 cups of hot water
A few drops of lemon juice or essential oil (like lemon, eucalyptus, or tea tree)
Mix everything in a spray bottle and shake before each use. Spray onto the surface, wipe with a cloth or sponge, and enjoy the clean, fresh result.
💡 Why it works:
Baking soda gently lifts dirt and grease, while neutralizing bad smells — all without any synthetic chemicals.
🚿 Perfect for: tile grout, faucets, shower doors, tub rims
3 tablespoons of baking soda
1 tablespoon of white vinegar or citric acid
Sprinkle baking soda over the area. Pour vinegar or diluted citric acid on top — it’ll bubble up! Let it sit for 10 minutes, scrub with a brush or sponge, then rinse thoroughly.
💡 Bonus tip:
It also helps unclog slow drains when followed by hot water!
🛋️ Use on: sofas, rugs, mattresses, pet beds
Plain baking soda
Optional: a few drops of essential oil (lavender, mint, citrus)
Lightly sprinkle the surface with baking soda. Let it sit for 1–2 hours to absorb odors, then vacuum it all up.
💡 Why you’ll love it:
It neutralizes odors instead of covering them up — no synthetic fragrances needed.
