Natural House Cleaners!

TOILET BOWL CLEANER

Add these ingredients directly to a partially drained bowl:

1/2 cup of baking soda
10 drops of melaleuca essential oil
1/4 cup of vinegar

As it reacts, scrub the toilet.
This combination is intended for one use at a time. 

For serious rust stains, empty out bowl and scrub with wet pumice stone.

FLOOR CLEANER

1 gallon of hot water
1 tablespoons liquid castile soap 
(substitute Dawn dish soap if needed)
15 drops wild orange essential oil
8 drops lemon essential oil

Combine ingredients in a large bucket. Use a mop to clean the floor. Rinsing optional.

I LOVE this cleaner! We use our refillable Libman spray mop and I just added a like 4 drops of lemon and 5 or 6 of wild orange to the warm soapy water. It is magic I swear!

SOFT SCRUB for Bath, Tile & Tub

Make in small batches and store in an airtight container. Enough for 2-4 applications.

3/4 rounded cup baking soda
1/4 cup castile soap (substitute: Dawn--but castile is better)
1 tablespoon water
1 tablespoon vinegar
5-10 drops lemon essential oil
 
In a bowl, combine the baking soda and castile soap. Add the water and stir. Finally, add the vinegar. Consistency should be a soft paste.
