Here are 4 natural kitchen cleaning products that you can use in a way you\u2019ve never thought of using them before:<\/h2>\n

Baking soda<\/h3>\n

It\u2019s often used in cooking but it can also clean, deodorise, soften water and scour.<\/p>\n

Oven<\/strong>
\nAttack an oven of grimy grease and cooking juices by making a paste of baking soda and water. Once made, spread paste over the bottom of the oven, leave for a few hours and then simply wipe off.<\/p>\n

Toilet cleaner<\/strong>
\nTake a cup of baking soda and put it in the toilet to let it soak for at least an hour. Then pour a cup of white vinegar and leave for 5 minutes before flushing.<\/p>\n

Citrus fruit<\/h3>\n

Lemon is the fruit used most in and favoured for its strong food acidity against household bacteria.<\/p>\n

General disinfectant <\/strong>
\nMaking citrus infused vinegar will take care of numerous home-cleaning tasks e.g. mopping floors, windows and surface disinfectant.<\/p>\n

To make: Place lemon peels in a jar and top up with white vinegar for a few days. When you want to use it, just strain out the vinegar.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Food waste disposal (in sink)<\/strong>
\nThese can get smelly so to ward nasty smells, cut a lemon in half and turn on the grinder and put in the lemon while the water is running.<\/p>\n

Air fresheners<\/strong><\/p>\n

Vinegar<\/h3>\n

Most households would have vinegar in the kitchen, however white vinegar is the one you\u2019ll want to cut through grease, remove mildew, odours, stains and wax build ups.<\/p>\n

Dishwasher cleaning
\n<\/strong>Place two cups of vinegar in a bowl without any other dishes and put it through a cycle. Your dishwasher will be all lovely and fresh.<\/p>\n

Shower heads<\/strong>
\nWrap a plastic bag with vinegar in it around the shower head and tie it so that the head is immersed. Leave for a few hours and then carefully remove.<\/p>\n

Burnt saucepans
\n<\/strong>No one likes scrubbing the burnt pans after cooking. So instead, fill the pan with water, add a cup of vinegar and bring to the boil. Then remove it from heat and add baking soda \u2013 WARNING! It will fizz. Empty the pan and scour.<\/p>\n
