Homemade Kitchen Cleaner Recipe

This Homemade Kitchen Cleaner Recipe is All-natural, Non-Toxic and Crazy Simple to make!

Did you know there is a difference between your kitchen cleaner and kitchen disinfectant? Some cleaners are meant to clean (lift grease) and some are meant to disinfect (kill germs), rarely does your average kitchen cleaner do both. Not only that, but if you are spraying your counters then wiping them off immediately, you are doing it all wrong. You will not find a residential kitchen cleaner that disinfects on contact. Most require you to spray and let sit 5-10 minutes before wiping. Have you ever done that? Who has the time, right? I think we have been given a false sense of security by the commercial industry and needlessly exposing ourselves and our families to a plethora of deadly chemicals.
