4 Steps To Make Simple Cleaning Spray At Home

Are you tired of spending your money on costly cleaning products filled with harsh chemicals? So here’s a simpler, more eco-friendly solution to keep your home sparkling clean - your homemade cleaning spray? Making your own homemade cleaning spray can be not only cost-effective but also better for the environment. In this article, we will tell you about how you can make an all-purpose cleaning spray at home using simple ingredients that are often found in your kitchen: 

Ingredients For Homemade Cleaning Spray 

To make a basic all-purpose cleaning spray, you’ll need the following ingredients:

• 1 tablespoon liquid dish soap 
• 1-2 cup water 
• 6-8 essential oil (tea tree oil or lemon essential oil)
• 1 small spray bottle 

How To Make Homemade Cleaning Spray

Step 1: Start by collecting all your ingredients and tools. It’s best to use a clean, empty spray bottle. If you’re reusing an old bottle, make sure to rinse it thoroughly. 

Step 2: In a mixing bowl or directly in your spray bottle, combine water and liquid dish soap. 

The liquid dish soap serves as the primary cleaning agent, while water helps dilute its acidity, making it safe for various surfaces. This effective cleaning solution will help cut through grease and tough stains.

Step 3: Then carefully add 6-8 drops of any essential oil in the solution. Essential oils like lemon or tea tree oil not only provide a fresh aroma but also add natural antibacterial properties.

Step 4:  Secure the spray nozzle on the bottle and shake gently to combine all the ingredients. Also, make sure to test the spray on a small area to check it doesn’t damage the surface.
