Do you clean your house? Here you have all the useful tips to clean and perfume your floors. Depending on the material your floor is made of, a specific product must be used to avoid damaging it.
With this simple DIY method, your floors will smell good for a long time
Parquet floors
Parquet floors can be treated using inexpensive and effective home methods. Mix 3 liters of water with 15 grams of baking soda and add a little Marseille soap, preferably liquid.
Clean the floor by applying this mixture to a clean, dry cloth, then pat it dry.
Marble
As marble is a very delicate material, it can be treated with a solution based on:
- 3 liters of water
- 150 ml denatured alcohol
- 15 ml of Marseille liquid soap.
Your floor will be shiny and very fragrant.
How to perfume your floors
If your floor gives off bad odors, it must be treated with a product capable of covering them. Here are some examples:
Marseille soap
Marseille soap is a very old natural tip, ideal not only for washing clothes but also floors. On the market you will also find scented versions such as lavender, lemongrass or even coconut soap.
Essential oils
Perfect not only for adding a pleasant aroma to your home, essential oils can also be added directly to the water in the bucket to wash the floor.
The essential oils suitable for this purpose are lavender, lemon and geranium. The result will be truly surprising.
White wine vinegar
White wine vinegar, often used as a seasoning in cooking, is perfect for disinfecting and perfuming floors. Plus, with vinegar, a little denatured alcohol, and organic dishwashing liquid, you can create a natural cleaner for your floors.
Warning: do not use vinegar on marble floors or polished materials, as it could dull them or damage them irreparably.
Happy cleaning!
