Homemade Floor Cleaner Recipe

Sick of buying store bought floor cleaners filled with harmful chemicals? All you need is 3 simple ingredients for this all-natural homemade floor cleaner recipe.

This cleaner also smells amazing since it is infused with essential oils.

Shelf Life: One time use.

Benefits: Castile soap gently cleanses floors and kills germs, while essential oils add extra cleaning power and a nice scent.

Tips and Tricks: Don’t use this solution on waxed wood floors as the soap can wear away the wax coating. Instead, substitute washing soap for castile soap.

How to Use: Use as you would any other floor cleaner. For hardwood floors, we recommend using a damp cloth rather than a mop to avoid adding too much moisture, which can damage the wood.

Level of Difficulty: Easy
