Eco-friendly cleaning isn’t just a trend; it’s a smart choice for the health of your family and the planet. Vinegar, baking soda, lemon, and salt are four natural ingredients that replace most store-bought products and tackle even stubborn stains.

Acetic acid effectively dissolves grease and limescale and kills bacteria. To clean your stovetop, mix vinegar and water 1:1, apply to the surface, wait 10 minutes, then wipe with a damp cloth. For your range hood, add a little baking soda to create a powerful cleaning paste.
Baking soda is a mild abrasive, ideal for cleaning sinks, bathtubs, and pots. Sprinkle it on the surface, add a little water, scrub with a sponge, and even burnt-on residue will disappear. For carpets: sprinkle with baking soda, let it sit for 30 minutes, then vacuum to remove odors and dust.
Lemon is not only a source of vitamin C but also a powerful degreaser. Cut a lemon in half, sprinkle with salt, and rub it on rusty faucets or stains in your kettle. Rinse after 15 minutes—shine is guaranteed.
