I don't know about you but I cannot stand the smell of household cleaners. I choke, I gag and it literally makes me sick. I personally enjoy being able to breathe... I also do not like to use products that are very harmful to the environment so I decided to make my own all purpose cleaner. I read online that the oil in orange peels when mixed with vinegar is a very strong and all natural (and safe) cleaner. I had to try it. So I took a pickle jar I had cleaned out. I started collecting my orange peels.
Once the jar was full of orange peels I added in my distilled white vinegar until the jar was full.
Then I let my jar sit on my countertop for 2 weeks, until the liquid had turned an orange color and smelled like oranges.
Once it was ready I poured the liquid into a spray bottle I got for 99 cents at Walmart.
Then I added in an equal amount of water to dillute the solution.
My cleaner is now ready to use, smells of citrus and works great. This is a powerful cleaner. I cleaned all my counter tops, my table, the top of my freezer, my walls, the bathroom sink etc. My house does not stink of cleaners, I didn't harm the environment, I paid very little money and yay everyone in my house including children and pets and myself can still breathe!! Yippee!
