For the past year and a half, I have made my own cleaners. At first I did it because I wanted to save money. Then, I realized that my asthma was more "under control" using my homemade cleaners. I make a window/glass cleaner and also an every day cleaner. I thought that I would share the "recipies".
All Purpose Cleaner:
Mix the following ingredients right into your spray bottle:
2 T. vinegar
1 t. Borax
Hot water
A few drops of mild dish detergent (dawn or ajax cuts grease!)
First, in a 16 oz. spray bottle, mix the vinegar, borax and hot water. Swich it around util the borax dissolves. Add the drops of detergent and fill the rest of the bottle with water.
Window Cleaner:
1/2 t. mild dish detergent
3 T vinegar
2 cups water
Put all of these ingredients into a spray bottle. Shake it up and it's ready!
Another good all purpose cleaner for big jobs:
1/2 cup ammonia
1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup baking soda
Mix ingredients with 1 gallon of warm water and use for jobs around the home.
This works for me in my home. Hope it works for you too!
