5 Natural Products For The Home
Each of us wants (especially before the beginning of spring or summer), to have the perfectly clean and smelling house. However, usually, we choose various chemicals to clean the house, without knowing how often these products are harmful to our health. especially if there are small children at home.
These products we listed below will help you polish almost all corners of the house in a completely safe and cheap way. And the best part—all of these products are natural and won’t harm your health in any way at all!
1. Lemon
Lemon is just perfect for kitchen and bathroom cleaning. This fruit perfectly exfoliates grease, soap stains on tiles and other debris. In addition, lemon disinfects and prevents mold, and that is just a perfect and natural way to deal with this unpleasant problem. And there are a few other places where you can use it:
- Cut the lemon in half and rub the cutting table you use to cook fish or meat. This will help disinfect the table and remove odors.
- To clean the microwave, mix lemon juice and water (3 tsp. of lemon juice and 400 ml of water). Put the mixture into a deeper bowl (which can be used in a microwave oven) and heat that for the maximum power for at least 10 minutes.
- Lemon juice perfectly removes scale deposits on faucets and shower heads too.
