DIY Citrus Vinegar Cleaning Spray for a Fresh Home

Enhance your DIY cleaning experience with these helpful insights for perfecting your spray.

1. Managing the Vinegar Scent

If a faint vinegar smell remains after cleaning, it will dissipate completely within minutes as the surface dries, leaving only the fresh citrus aroma. Opening a window can speed this process.

2. Boosting Cleaning Power

For extra-tough grime, use the infused vinegar full-strength without dilution. Let it sit on the surface for 10-15 minutes before scrubbing. Adding a tablespoon of baking soda to create a fizzing reaction can help with clogged drains (pour vinegar down first, then baking soda).

3. Continuous Brew Method

To have a constant supply, try a "continuous brew." Keep your steeping jar in the cupboard and simply add fresh citrus peels and top up with vinegar as you generate them. Strain and refresh the entire batch every few months.
