Making the Cleaning Solution: Place the washed orange peels into a clean plastic bottle, filling it halfway. Add a teaspoon of baking soda, then fill the bottle with water, leaving some space at the top for fermentation.
Fermentation Process: Let the mixture sit in a dry place out of direct sunlight for about three days. Remember to open the cap daily to release any built-up gas.
An Effective and Affordable Solution
After the fermentation process, your homemade cleaner is ready. The citric acid from the orange peels combined with baking soda creates a powerful cleaning solution perfect for washing dishes and cleaning kitchen surfaces.
This natural cleaner is just as effective as commercial cleaners but much more affordable. By using orange peels that would otherwise be discarded, you’re saving money and reducing waste.
So, next time you enjoy a juicy orange, don’t throw away the peels. With this simple homemade cleaner, you can keep your home sparkling clean while saving money and benefiting the environment.
