Introduction:

I recently made bleach at home based on my mother-in-law's advice, and I was amazed by how easy and effective it turned out to be! Bleach is a powerful disinfectant, and having a homemade version can save money while ensuring you have a safe and reliable cleaner. In this article, I’m excited to share my simple bleach recipe with you, along with some tips and alternatives that will make your cleaning routine easier and more eco-friendly.

Ingredients:

1 cup of chlorine bleach (sodium hypochlorite)
1 tablespoon of baking soda
1 tablespoon of dish soap (optional)
1 gallon of water
Instructions:

Start by mixing 1 gallon of water in a large bucket.
Slowly add 1 cup of chlorine bleach (ensure it's a high-quality bleach suitable for household use) into the water, stirring gently.
Add 1 tablespoon of baking soda to the mixture. This will help enhance the cleaning power and neutralize odors.
If you want extra cleaning strength, you can add 1 tablespoon of dish soap, which helps break down grease and grime.
Stir the solution well to ensure all ingredients are fully dissolved and combined.
Transfer the mixture into a spray bottle or use directly for cleaning.
