We all know how challenging it can be to keep your floors clean, especially if you have children or pets. But don’t worry, we’ve got you covered! Even if simple cleaning with a vacuum cleaner or damp cloth doesn’t seem to do the trick, you can easily take it to the next level with this amazing new product.

If you’ve ever found yourself in this situation, you know that sometimes the most common cleaning products aren’t enough to leave the floor shiny and fragrant. Then you have to invest in more products and a deeper clean.

However, this homemade floor cleaning mixture could be the solution to your problems!

Homemade floor cleaning mixture

Are you tired of scrubbing the floor and it not smelling as shiny as you’d like? Try this simple homemade mixture, a tip we saw on @kanizialopesofc’s Instagram channel.

She says that she always uses this mixture to clean her house and that, as well as cleaning, it leaves the floor shiny and smelling great! Check out the ingredients in this mixture:

Ingredients

  • 200 ml room temperature water
  • 50 ml disinfectant
  • 2 heaped tablespoons of detergent
  • 1 tablespoon of peroba oil

How to prepare

There’s no secret, just add all the ingredients – water, disinfectant, detergent and peroba oil – to a suitable container. You can use an empty detergent bottle or a spray bottle you have at home and apply it directly to the floor. Then just mop and watch your floor shine!

Is hot water better than cold water?

There are many different types of dirt on the floor at home, including a lot of grease if we’re talking about the floor near the stove and the like. That’s why using hot water can help you save time and products when cleaning your home and kitchen floors, you know?

This trick can be used with most floors, but we recommend that you always check beforehand whether the material you have is compatible with high temperatures. In addition, we say the same thing about products, be they of any type or brand

Hot water to clean the floor can be used either as a finishing touch, after you have finished cleaning to leave the floor clean and smelling fresh, or during the entire cleaning. The main point of the trick is to do what you usually do, but with hot water instead of room temperature water.

Just mix the hot water with a little disinfectant and gently wipe the floor. You can use other products, but this is the basis of cleaning – and it works! The hot water will make the disinfectant “stronger” both in terms of smell and results, and the molecules of grease and dirt will come off more easily.
