If you're new to baking soda and white vinegar's power, explore more on their cleaning prowess. White vinegar's acidity disinfects, deodorizes, and dissolves mold-causing fungi and grime.
Baking soda, being alkaline and mildly abrasive, loosens stubborn dirt while sanitizing surfaces.
Together, they create a fizzing reaction that deep-cleans effectively—perfect for humid bathrooms. Lemon juice adds extra acidity to tackle black stains.
