Green Cleaning-Bathroom

I've talked about the different green cleaners and what they do. Let's put them into action and talk about cleaning specific things. Let's start in the bathroom.

Sinks/Mirrors/Glass-Combine 1 part white vinegar mixed to 3 parts water. Put in spray bottle, spray on surface and wipe clean with clean rag or newspapers (non-colored portion)
Toilet-Sprinkle baking soda around edges. Pour in white vinegar and let set for 15 minutes. Scrub with toilet brush and flush. (This one is a little science experiment each time you do it. Should bubble and fizz due to the acid/base reaction going on)
Bathtub-Pour in baking soda. Wet it a bit. Scrub. Will take some elbow grease. Can use vinegar on soap scum and mold. Hydrogen peroxide applied directly to mold will help clean off tough areas.
Tile Floor-1/4 cup vinegar with 2 cups water. Increase amounts proportionally for large areas. Use as mop water.

Happy green cleaning!
