๐๐ช Welcome to day 24 of our gratitude month series! Today, let's express our gratitude for the challenges that have pushed us to grow, learn, and become stronger individuals. Challenges may seem daunting at first, but they often hold valuable lessons and opportunities for personal development. So, I want to ask: What challenge are you most grateful for?
For me, it's the challenge of starting my own business.

โจAre you a cleaning with vinegar fan?๐
Letโs chat about some pros & cons!
Pros:
1๏ธโฃ Inexpensive
2๏ธโฃ Natural/Non-toxic
3๏ธโฃ Versatile for some tasks
But...Hereโs some cons & myths:
1๏ธโฃ ๐๐๐๐: ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ซ ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ง ๐๐ฏ๐๐ซ๐ฒ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ .
Itโs not suitable for cleaning natural stone surfaces like granite or marble, as the acidity of vinegar can damage the stone.
On certain types of flooring or furniture, such as hardwood, can lead to damage over time.
It can be too harsh for some fabrics and may cause discoloration or damage.
It might not be the best choice for removing tough stains, mold, or mildew.
Vinegar is too acidic for cleaning electronic devices. It can damage the protective coatings on screens and other surfaces.
2๏ธโฃ ๐๐๐๐: ๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ซ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ข๐ง๐๐๐๐ญ๐๐ง๐ญ.
Did you know vinegar needs to sit on a surface, at full strength, not diluted, for up to 30 minutes in order to reduce bacteria? Vinegar has some antibacterial properties, but itโs not a broad-spectrum disinfectant. According to EPA standards, a disinfectant should be able to kill 99.9 percent of disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Vinegar doesnโt do that.
3๏ธโฃ ๐๐๐๐:๐๐ข๐ง๐๐ ๐๐ซ ๐ข๐ฌ ๐ฌ๐๐๐ ๐ญ๐จ ๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐จ๐ฏ๐ ๐จ๐๐จ๐ซ๐ฌ.
Vinegar can help neutralize some odors, it doesnโt eliminate all smells. In some cases, it might mask the odor temporarily, but it wonโt provide a long-term solution for persistent smells.
Also, itโs still an acid, and prolonged exposure or ingestion can be harmful. Itโs important to use vinegar responsibly, following proper dilution ratios, and keeping it out of reach of children. I personally donโt like my home to smell like a salad.
I took this pic at Walmart. Theyโve taken regular vinegar, which is already cheap, diluted it and raised the price calling it โCleaning Vinegarโ. Gotta love marketing!!!

Did you know vinegar needs to sit on a surface, at full strength, not diluted, for up to 30 minutes in order to reduce bacteria? Vinegar has some antibacterial properties, but it's not a broad-spectrum disinfectant. According to EPA standards, a disinfectant should be able to kill 99.9 percent of disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Vinegar doesn't do that.

Vinegar can help neutralize some odors, it doesn't eliminate all smells. In some cases, it might mask the odor temporarily, but it won't provide a long-term solution for persistent smells.
Also, it's still an acid, and prolonged exposure or ingestion can be harmful. It's important to use vinegar responsibly, following proper dilution ratios, and keeping it out of reach of children. I personally don't like my home to smell like a salad.
I took this pic at Walmart. They've taken regular vinegar, which is already cheap, diluted it and raised the price calling it "Cleaning Vinegar". Gotta love marketing!!!

Are you doing it? I did! What's your technique? While they're sleeping? Doing a "safety check"? Taking a "candy tax" for talking them trick or treating?
