Baking soda and vinegar are two of the most versatile and effective household ingredients available. When combined, they create a powerful, all-natural cleaning solution that’s not only cost-effective but also environmentally friendly.

Whether you’re tackling dirty surfaces or freshening up your home, this dynamic duo can do it all. Let’s explore how and why you should use baking soda and vinegar—especially in a spray bottle.

The Science Behind the Magic

Baking soda (sodium bicarbonate) is a base, and vinegar (acetic acid) is an acid. When combined, they react to form carbon dioxide gas, water, and sodium acetate. This fizzy reaction helps:

Lift dirt and grime

Dislodge particles

Deodorize and sanitize surfaces

The result is a bubbling action that deep cleans and refreshes without the need for harsh chemicals.

What You’ll Need

To make your own baking soda and vinegar spray, gather the following:

1 clean spray bottle

2 tablespoons baking soda

½ cup white vinegar

Water

Measuring cup & funnel (optional for ease)

Make sure your spray bottle can handle some pressure from the fizzing reaction.
