THE BEST ALL PURPOSE CLEANER
This is by far the best all purpose cleaner I've found. It is fabulous on windows and mirrors, degreases wonderfully, and cuts gunk on sinks etc. and shines, shines, shines. I use it for everything but wood.

EARTH SCRUB (A GREEN "SOFT SCRUB") ALL-PURPOSE CLEANER
This is a great "soft scrub" for counters, sinks, tubs, shower stalls, etc. You can optionally add an essential oil to scent. (I use Dr. Bronner's Peppermint Castille soap, so I don't need any extra scent.) It's important to use liquid soap, not detergent, because detergent makes it much harder to rinse. Castille soap is best; it's available at health food stores. It's great to use this and know you're saving money while being kind to your lungs and the planet at the same time! I got this recipe from Karen Logan's book, Clean House, Clean Planet (a great book!). You can add a few drops of tea tree oil to make it disinfectant and use it for a toilet bowl cleaner.

- (A clean, empty ketchup or syrup bottle works well.) Shake well before using, and keep tightly closed between uses.
Tips:
- Vinegar and Water: A simple yet effective all-purpose cleaner. Mix equal parts white vinegar and water in a spray bottle and use it to clean surfaces like countertops, windows, and appliances.

- Lemon Juice and Water: A natural disinfectant that can be used to clean and brighten surfaces. Mix equal parts lemon juice and water in a spray bottle and use it to clean surfaces like countertops, sinks, and cutting boards.
- Olive Oil and Lemon Juice: A natural wood polish that can help to restore the shine and luster of wood surfaces. Mix equal parts olive oil and lemon juice and apply it to the wood surface. Buff it with a soft cloth.
- Tea Tree Oil and Water: A natural antibacterial and antifungal agent that can be used to clean and disinfect surfaces. Add a few drops of tea tree oil to a spray bottle filled with water and use it to clean surfaces like countertops, doorknobs, and bathroom fixtures.
Conclusion:
The all-purpose cleaners mentioned above are effective and easy to make. They can be used to clean a variety of surfaces in your home, from countertops and appliances to windows and floors.
