With springtime just around the corner, you might be thinking of the spring cleaning you’ll need to do in your Dallas apartment soon. One reason that people sometimes delay cleaning is that they’re worried about the environmental impact of the chemicals in cleaning solutions. However, there’s no reason to wait any longer because we have some fantastic eco-friendly cleaning tips for your spring cleaning!
SPRING CLEANING THE ECO-FRIENDLY WAY
While doing spring cleaning in your apartment in Dallas there are several different eco-friendly cleaning formulas that you can make yourself. In fact, you probably have the ingredients needed for the following cleaning solutions at home already.
GLASS CLEANER
Create an eco-friendly glass cleaner with just 1/4 cup of white vinegar and a quart of room temperature water. Combine in a large spray bottle, and then use to clean windows, coffee tables, and any other glass surface in your home. Recycle your old newspapers (another eco-friendly action) by using them to wipe away the glass cleaner.
BATHROOM CLEANER
This eco-friendly option for bathroom tile, bathtubs, and countertops is also super easy to make. Combine one part baking soda with two parts of white vinegar. Once it’s a thick paste, add four parts of water. You can use this with a sponge to scrub away germs and grime, the eco-friendly way. When using this bathroom cleaner, scrub well and allow the mixture a few minutes to sit before you wash away thoroughly for best results.
DISINFECTANT
This eco-friendly disinfectant can be used in multiple areas of the home. Simply combine two teaspoons of Borax with four tablespoons of white vinegar. Pour three full cups of warm to hot water into the mixture and complete the disinfectant with 1/4 teaspoon of castile soap. You can apply it with a soft cloth or pour into a spray bottle for easy use.
