On average, most home cleaners cost less than a dollar to make. If you compare that to the $5-$15 already made bottles, think of all the money you will save! It might cost a bit at the beginning, but it will be worth it once you are stocked up! Start off by buying white vinegar, liquid soap, baking soda, rubbing alcohol, hydrogen peroxide, and a few essential oils. By keeping these products in your house, it will be super simple to create your own all-purpose cleaner.

Many store-bought cleaning products come with chemicals such as “carcinogens, nasty hormone (including birth defects and infertility) and respiratory disruptors, skin irritants and asthmagens, among other ills,” shared Today. By making your own DIY cleaner, you are keeping the toxic chemicals out of your house and body.
