Disinfect Countertops

Whiten Grout

If you want to clean your tile’s grout, then grab the hydrogen peroxide and spread it all over the dirty area. Then scrub thoroughly and in no time, your grout will look amazing.

Clean Toilet Bowls

Forget the toxic chemically made toilet cleaner and try using hydrogen peroxide. All you need to do is pour half a cup of it into the toilet bowl, letting it sit for 3 minutes, and then scrub it clean. Flush after and it’ll look great.

Sanitize Your Sponge

For germ free dishwashing, soak your sponge in hydrogen peroxide and let it soak for 15 – 30 minutes to disinfect. The hydrogen peroxide is anti-bacterial and anti-viral, so it makes sense to use it for your sponge.

Disinfect Cutting Boards

This can be done simply done by spraying a good amount of hydrogen peroxide on your cutting boards and rinse after. This will kill and prevent the spread of bacteria and germs that are bad for meal prep.

Make Your Baking Sheets New Again

If you’re someone who loves baking, then you probably know the pain of having burnt food on baking sheets. But thankfully, you can quickly fix this by simply sprinkling the burnt spots with baking soda, spray with hydrogen peroxide, and then add another layer of baking soda. Let it sit for a few minutes and scrub. Your baking sheet will look like new again

Clean Your Fridge

Because the fridge is probably the most used appliance in the kitchen, it’s always a great idea to keep it clean. All you have to do is spray hydrogen peroxide inside and outside the fridge and let it soak for a few minutes. Then wipe away with a clean cloth after to remove food gunk and disinfect.

Create an All Natural Bleach Alternative

With a mixture of hydrogen peroxide, lemon juice, baking soda, citric acid, and vinegar, you can easily create an all natural bleach alternative. It’s cheaper, safer, and much better compared to any store-bought bleach that’s full of toxic chemicals.

And to quickly clean and lift up any sticky residue, sprinkle the surface with baking soda and then drizzle with hydrogen peroxide. Watch as it fizzes and breaks down the burnt-on gunk. Simply rinse and dry once the stains have been lifted. It’ll look sparkling clean in no time!
