Green Cleaning with Baking Soda

Using common household baking soda is a great inexpensive way to clean your entire bathroom. Not only is baking soda one of the cheapest ways to clean, it’s also pet and kid safe, making it a great option for nearly everyone. Baking soda works by activating it with water to create a bubbling, cleaning solution to make your life easier.

Cleaning your drains is important so they don’t get backed up and continue to remove water from your sink or tub basin quickly. Cleaning them is as easy as dumping several tablespoons worth of baking soda down the drain and then running a little bit of water to activate the baking soda. The bubbles that the water creates when it reacts with the baking soda cleans the drain effectively without any brushes or scrubbing.

You can use baking soda to clean your entire bathroom and it will make the process quick and easy. You can make a paste with the baking soda and a little bit of water and use that to remove soap scum from your tub basin or your shower doors. A quick rinse after scrubbing will remove hard water lines from the tub and make your glass shower doors spotless. You can also use baking soda to clean your toilet. Just dump some of the baking soda into the toilet bowl and scrub with a brush, if desired. A quick flush will remove any hard water lines and will make the bowl sparkle.

Baking soda is a great option because it has so many applications. You can also use a baking soda and water solution to mop the floor. Just a quick rinse with water and your floor will be sanitized and clean. You can also use a paste of baking soda and water to scrub the counter top and make it look as good as new. With so many applications, it makes it easy to see why baking soda is such a popular cleaning tool. You can use it all over the house to make sure that your home is not only clean, but sanitized, as well.
