Ingredients:
1/4 cup white vinegar
3/4 cup water, distilled
8 oz spray bottle
7 drops tea tree essential oil
7 drops lavender essential oil
funnel (optional)
The ingredients of this DIY disinfectant spray with essential oils are carefully chosen due to their properties that can help with disinfection.
Distilled water is recommended than ordinary tap water because it is devoid of natural minerals and contaminants. If you use this kind of water in making a natural disinfectant spray, there will be no mineral residue left on your surfaces.
Vinegar is needed for this DIY disinfectant spray because of its germ-killing action. But if you want to swap out it with vodka or rubbing alcohol, you may do so. Yet, these alternatives may not be apt for some surfaces. Thus, you need to test a small area first to see if will not cause damage when applied.
Essential oils help mask the scent of vinegar. But they’re not used to create a fragrant disinfectant cleaner- they have disinfecting abilities too. The tea tree and lavender essential oils can disinfect surfaces naturally.
Tea tree is commonly used for treating minor skin injuries and fungal infections. But it has a pungent smell when using on its own for the DIY cleaning solution. By combining it with lavender, you don’t just disinfect your home, you’ll leave it fragrant as well.
Place the funnel in the mouth of the plastic bottle. Pour the white vinegar into the funnel. Then add drops of essential oils. Lastly, add the distilled water. Close the top of the bottle and shake to mix the ingredients thoroughly.
Shake the bottle and spray on the area or cloth. Wipe countertops, tables, and other surfaces. Use the cloth sprayed with the homemade disinfectant solution to disinfect door handles, cell phones, and more.
The DIY disinfectant spray is people and pet-friendly. It doesn’t have chemicals that can make anyone that can smell or touch it, feel sick.
