Saving Money and the Environment with Orange Peels

Are you tired of spending money on expensive household cleaning products? Look no further than your kitchen! You can easily create a natural and cost-effective cleaner using orange peels. Not only will this save you money, but it is also environmentally friendly.

The Wonders of Orange Peels
Oranges are not only delicious, but their peels have many practical uses as well. Did you know that orange peels contain citric acid, making them perfect for cleaning? Plus, they are loaded with vitamin C, antioxidants, and minerals like magnesium and potassium, offering numerous health benefits.

The Simple Steps to a Powerful Cleaner
Creating your own natural cleaner with orange peels is a breeze. Just follow these simple steps:

1. Peeling the Orange
Start by efficiently peeling the orange to get long strips of peel. Cut off the ends of the orange, loosen the peel with a spoon, and make a vertical cut to remove it in one piece.

2. Preparing the Peels
Once you have the peels, give them a thorough wash with water and a pinch of salt. This will remove any pesticide residues or parasites, ensuring that your homemade cleaner is safe to use.

3. Creating the Cleaning Solution
Place the cleaned orange peels into a clean plastic bottle, filling it halfway. Then, add a teaspoon of baking soda to the bottle. Finally, fill the bottle with water, leaving some space at the top for fermentation.

4. Fermentation Process
Let the mixture sit in a dry place out of direct sunlight for about three days. Remember to open the cap daily to release any built-up gas.
