I love to clean my floors with all natural products. Because I have two dogs it is important for me to use as many chemical free products as possible. This all natural DIY Floor Wash is one that I really enjoy using and best of all it cleans my floors well! If you are looking for a way to save money from your budget this is a great way too. If you use all natural products in your home you can not only save money but also save the environment too!
This DIY Floor Wash is also perfect for cleaning with those who have small children or those with Asthma. Best of all to me that there is no rinsing necessary with this! Be sure not use this on Marble because it can PIT the flooring. Vinegar is not safe for marble.
You can also make a citrus scented vinegar if you are not a fan of vinegar. We use it at our house because my husband doesn’t like the smell of vinegar and it works great!

So this would be ok on hardwood. I just bought a house with older hardwood floors, would love to use this on them.
Yes, I use it on my hardwood but don’t soak your floors (be sure to wring out your Mop and always spot test first).
love this…thanks
This would be ok on porcelain tile? Just not marble, right?
I love this! It sounds much cheaper than regular floor cleaner. Where do you get castile soap? thx
Melissa, I use white vinegar for so many things in my home. I never thought about it for mopping my floors. Thanks for posting. I love vinegar also in my rinse water with my laundry. I love it to clean the dishwasher and even to rinse hair of leftover soap residue. It’s great for so many things around the home.
