How to Clean at Home with Lemons the Right Way

 

There are so many natural ingredients you can utilise so that you mix your DIY cleaning solutions. The fact that homemade cleaning remedies are the healthy way to go is undeniable, which is why you should switch to green cleaning and learn to prepare harmless cleaning remedies. As one of the most powerful cleaning agents, lemons should be part of your brand-new cleaning routine. Here is how to make the most of lemons’ cleaning potential and refresh your place naturally:

 

  • Refresh the microwave – your microwave’s interior is covered with greasy stains? You don’t have to spend lots of time scrubbing the mess because you can disinfect the appliance naturally with lemons. Cut a lemon in half and squeeze the juice in an appropriate bowl filled with water. Put the bowl in the microwave and heat it for 3 minutes. Let the mixture stay in the machine so that the steam can loosen up stubborn stains. Take out the bowl, give the microwave a quick wipe with the loofah and the appliance will become as good as new.

 

  • Refresh the sink – another kitchen surface for you to sanitise with lemons in the sink. Whenever you notice that the sink has started to look grimy, cut a lemon in half and sprinkle both halves with some salt. Thoroughly scrub the sink with the lemons, so that their juice mixed with the salt cuts through buildup dirt. After you are done scrubbing, rinse the sink with warm water to get rid of residue. This eco-friendly cleaning technique will banish not only stains from the sink but unpleasant smells too.

 

  • Refresh the cutting board – if you use your cutting board constantly, chances are this precious kitchen tool becomes dingy in no time. But with the help of lemons and salt, you can eliminate residue from your cutting board, making it fresh again. Start by sprinkling salt on the cutting board, then slice a lemon in half and go over the surface. Let the lemon juice sit for a few minutes before you rinse the cutting board with warm water.

 

  • Refresh the fridge – perhaps you know that the best eco-friendly way to banish nasty odours from the fridge is to leave an open box of baking soda inside. But if you don’t have baking soda at your disposal, you can replace it with lemons – it is just as refreshing. Take a small bowl and fill it with water. Squeeze the juice of one lemon and put the bowl in the fridge. If you prefer, you can also slice the lemon in half and put it in the bowl, instead of squeezing out the juice. This lemon cleaning hack will provide a citric fragrance in your refrigerator, as long as you remember to replace the lemon once a week.

 

  • Refresh chrome fixtures – chrome fixtures in the bathroom often suffer from hard water stains you can quickly eliminate with lemons. Just cut a lemon in half and rub it on the surface until the fixtures restore their initial sparkle. Once you are done with the cleaning procedure, you don’t have to rinse the surfaces. Give them a good wipe with a clean bamboo cotton cloth and call it a day.

 

  • Refresh glass surfaces – lemon juice is the best alternative to white vinegar when it comes to keeping glass surfaces squeaky clean. Take an empty spray bottle and mix a cup of water with three tablespoons of lemon juice. Spritz your eco-friendly lemon solution on the windows or the mirror and wipe clean with bamboo cotton clothes to eliminate stains without leaving streaks.

 

You see how easy it is for you to refresh your space naturally, relying on just lemons. Make your lemon-based cleaning solution to disinfect numerous surfaces at home without going for unhealthy chemical-based products.
