Well, you don’t have to make it harder than it already it. You really only need a few simple things to help you clean up, and it can all fit in a little basket. If cleaning’s going to be a chore, might as well use things that are cheap and still work well, right?

There are five items you need for your cleaning crusade. Baking soda, to clean, deodorize, and soften problem areas. When mixed with water it can cut through dirt and grease on almost any surface. Lemons, a strong food-acid that’s effective against most household bacteria, along with being useful for bleaching, disinfecting, deodorizing, and cutting grease.

A spray bottle is used to apply these solutions, and a cinnamon stick is optional for scent.
