Shiny and clean floor: which natural ingredients to use?
The floor is one of the areas of the house that is often underestimated in terms of hygiene. Germs and bacteria are carried with the soles of our shoes, through the various food scraps that fall to the ground until they reach our four-legged friends who shed hair and drool.
To have a surface that is always clean and perfumed, sanitized, it is enough to use some natural remedies combined with other products. This mixture can be used with any type of floor, especially when you want to clean it thoroughly and return the shiny patina that it had just put on.
The ingredients are:
- 2 liters of cold water
- 2 tablespoons hydrogen peroxide
- Baking soda – 1/2 tablespoon
- Floor Cleaner
- dish soap
Hydrogen peroxide is essential for removing stains, while baking soda sanitizes while polishing the surface.
Procedure and tips
The first thing to do is to pour two tablespoons of hydrogen peroxide on the dry soil, immediately passing the soft-bristled broom. This movement will allow you to remove all the dirt embedded in the floor in two simple steps.
Immediately after, take a bucket and fill it with two liters of cold water, then add some floor cleaner (with your favorite scent), a small amount of dish soap, and finally two tablespoons of baking soda. Wait a few minutes and then take the classic floor rag, dipping it in the water rich in the substance you just created.
Mopping the floors and making even more passes. The three ingredients together join the action of hydrogen peroxide to clean, sanitize, perfume and polish the surface.
Leave on and make a second quick pass always with the same wet cloth. Leave on again for five minutes.
Now take some clean water and another rag to go rinse the floor and remove all residues of the substance used for cleaning. In summer you can let the floor dry naturally, while in winter you can use a dry cloth to remove water and moisture in one go.
You can use this mixture once a week and it will be wonderful to see your floor clean and shiny. This method is no longer a secret and everyone will want to know about it.
