Natural Oven Cleaner

Moving on to another essential DIY cleaner, let's talk about a natural oven cleaner. Cleaning the oven can be a daunting task, but with this simple homemade cleaner, it becomes much easier. This DIY oven cleaner requires baking soda, vinegar, and water. Baking soda acts as an abrasive cleaner, while vinegar helps to loosen and remove grease and grime.

To make the natural oven cleaner, create a paste by mixing baking soda and water. Apply the paste to the interior of the oven, focusing on the dirtiest areas. Let it sit for a few hours or overnight if possible. Then, dampen a cloth with vinegar and wipe away the baking soda paste. You'll be amazed at how easily the grease and grime come off!

Not only does this natural oven cleaner work wonders, but it's also safe and non-toxic. You don't have to worry about inhaling harmful fumes or using harsh chemicals in your oven.
