Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
Does anyone have a recipe for cleaning carpets that you can put in your steam cleaner?
Thanks! |

Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
Actually, I think urine contains amonia compounds and amonia is extremely base...acidic vinegar counteracts urine smell for animals and people.

Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
I just wanted to add something about the carpet cleaner. I was reading the back of my seventh generation carpet cleaner to see whats in it and it has hydrogen peroxide, citrus oils, and some solvent to break down dirt. So I mixed up about a 1/2 cup of hydrogen peroxide, 10 drops of orange oil, and a teaspoon of detergent and added it to a gallon of water in my steam cleaner and it got my carpets cleaner than any other cleaner i've ever used. So I just had to share because I was super excited!

Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
I know that regular carpet cleaners don't rinse well, so they make your carpet even dirtier quicker than before the cleaner was used. Your natural cleaner recipe sounds really appealing.

Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
I guess detergent's not the best word. I just used dish soap.
And I didn't realize there were different grades of hydrogen peroxide! I just used the cheap over the counter stuff. And it makes my carpet smell soooo good! I just got finished steam cleaning my living room. |

Re: Natural Cleaning Recipes
We use both with diapers. You want to use the baking soda during the wash and vinegar in the rinse.
