Cleaning with peroxide is a safe and natural way to kill germs and bacteria around your home. Here are our top hydrogen peroxide cleaner recipes (including a homemade stain remover!) to help you thoroughly and affordably clean your home.
When it comes to homemade cleaners, one that you absolutely need in your arsenal is hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide has an almost identical chemical composition to water except that it has one extra atom of oxygen. This extra atom causes hydrogen peroxide to break down quickly and safely. We also recommend rubbing alcohol, vinegar, and baking soda, but peroxide is a priority.
