Cleaning with Oranges and Lemons

Written by Joseph Berger | 24 March 2015

These citrus fruits make great all natural cleaners!

1. Spot Remover: Add lemon rinds to your dishwasher to keep spots off of your glass and silverware.

2. Citrus Vinegar: Add citrus rinds to a large jar, fill with vinegar. After a week or so, strain the vinegar and load it into a spray bottle for use as an all-purpose cleaner.

3. Coffee Pot Cleanup: Add lemon rinds, a cup of ice and a few tablespoons of salt to a cool coffee pot. Swirl around in the coffee pot to remove buildup.

4. Remove Hard Water Stains: Sprinkle some salt inside a lemon rind and scrub your shower walls and doors to remove mineral deposits.
