Home Remedy Tip Of The Day: Household Cleaners

So if you are like me and can't really stand the strong smell of some of the household cleaners you buy or just don't want to put harsh chemicals out into the atmosphere, try some of these all natural, proven to work cleaners instead.

Use a cut lemon to clean water spots on chrome

1. Chrome Cleaner- Cut a lemon in half. Wipe the chrome with the lemon.
2. Mildew Treatment- Wash down areas that are prone to mildew with a strong thyme tea. Steep 4 cups of thyme in 1 gallon of water for several days. Use to scrub down the area.
3. Oven Cleaner- Sprinkle water on the bottom of the oven. Put baking soda in an even layer over the water. Sprinkle again with water and let sit overnight. Wipe off with a clean, damp cloth.
4. Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Denture Cleaner-Drop several tablets of denture cleaner in the bowl and let sit overnight. Scrub with brush and stains are gone.
5. Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Vitamin C- Drop 3 vitamin C capsules in the bowl and let sit overnight. Scrub with brush in the morning. Stains are gone.
6. Wallpaper Cleaner- Use slices of bread to clean wallpaper. Just wipe away the stains and dirt with the bread.
7. Furniture Polish Using Olive Oil- Mix together 1 tsp. of olive oil and 1/2 cup of lemon juice in a small pan. Dip a cloth in the liquid and wring out. Use this to dust and polish furniture. The cloth can be used repeatedly.
