Use of vinegar and baking soda for household cleaning

Entities: Lemon juice · Baking soda · Rodrigo Margoni · Good Housekeeping Institute · Hydrogen peroxide

Overview

Vinegar and baking soda are being utilized as multifunctional, cost-effective, and sustainable alternatives to industrial cleaning products.

Vinegar is used for heavy cleaning, deodorizing, laundry care, degreasing, and as a natural herbicide. However, experts caution against using it on marble or natural stone and warn it must never be mixed with bleach.

Baking soda is used for its abrasive and alkaline properties to remove stains and neutralize odors. While effective on hard, non-porous surfaces, its abrasiveness can scratch or damage delicate materials. Experts recommend testing the substance on an inconspicuous area before full use.
