Hey Everyone!

Sometimes the most basic formulas are the most effective when it comes to cleaning.

Case in point: All of these DIY cleaners are made out of only two (yes, two!) ingredients - and you probably have every one of them in your pantry right now.

Hint 1: Dish Soap + Baking Soda

The next time your elbow grease isn't enough to scrub off baked-on food, sprinkle baking soda on top of your dish detergent to pump up your cleaner and add more friction to your scrubbing situation.



Cut, Chop, Mince and Puree anything from veggies to meat in seconds

Hint 2: Dish Soap + Vinegar

Add three drops of dish soap to a bowl of vinegar to attract those annoying flies in your home that are impossible to get rid of. The detergent will cut surface tension, so the flies will sink and drown.

Just toss the cup once your home is fruit fly-free.
