Clean Green: All-Purpose Disinfectant


All Natural Furniture Polish Enlightened Lotus Wellness

Clean Green Recipe

To continue our Clean Green series here are my recipes for all-purpose disinfectant and glass cleaner.

All-Purpose Disinfectant

  • 2 tsp. borax
  • 4 Tbsp. Vinegar
  • 1/2 tsp. liquid Castile soap
  • 3 cups water
  • 20 drops tea tree essential oil (Adds to the disinfecting power but if you don't care for the scent, opt for lemon or lavender)
Mix all ingredients in a spray bottle, water first, followed by the remaining ingredients. Shake well.
Directions for use: Spray area to be cleaned, let sit for a few minutes, wipe clean. Viola!

Glass Cleaner

  • 1/2 tsp. castile soap
  • 3 tbsp. white distilled vinegar
  • 2 cups water
Mix all ingredients in spray bottle. The castile soap is to help dissolve any buildup you may have on your glass from commercial cleaners, you can leave it out after the first bottle if you would like. Use as you would normal glass cleaner.

I hope you are enjoying the Clean Green series, we are going to discuss laundry next, all natural detergent and fabric softener, two of my favorite clean green products! Until then, Happy Cleaning!
