The Best Homemade Carpet Cleaner – Costs Only $1 to Make!
Are you tired of spending a fortune on expensive carpet cleaners that barely get the job done? Good news! You can make your own powerful carpet cleaner at home for just around $1. This DIY cleaner is safe, effective, and uses simple household ingredients. Here’s how to make it and get your carpets looking fresh and spotless!
What You’ll Need:
White vinegar (½ cup)
Baking soda (1 tablespoon)
Dish soap (1 teaspoon)
Warm water (2 cups)
Essential oil (optional, for scent)
Spray bottle
Scrub brush
How to Make It:
Mix the Ingredients
In a spray bottle, combine the ½ cup of white vinegar, 1 tablespoon of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of dish soap.
Slowly pour in the 2 cups of warm water, letting the ingredients mix. If you want your carpet cleaner to have a pleasant scent, add 5–10 drops of your favorite essential oil (such as lavender or lemon).
Shake the Bottle
Gently shake the spray bottle to mix everything well, making sure the baking soda dissolves. Your homemade carpet cleaner is now ready to use!
How to Use It:
Test a Small Spot
Before using your cleaner on the entire carpet, test a small, hidden area to ensure it doesn’t affect the color or texture.
Spray the Carpet
Once tested, generously spray the cleaner over the stained or dirty areas of your carpet. Let it sit for about 5–10 minutes to penetrate the fibers and loosen the dirt.
Scrub the Stains
