You can use vinegar in several ways to help you clean. It is a great disinfectant and deodorizer and by mixing one part vinegar and one part water, you will have a wonderful all purpose cleaner. Pour the vinegar and water solution into a spray bottle and you can use it in your bathroom on your tub, toilet, sink and counter top. In the kitchen, clean your appliances, stove top and counters. It is a good solution to use for mopping your floor to, but you will want to be sure it will not damage your floor. Test on a very small spot before using it to mop.

Test your vacuum cleaner first in an inconspicuous area so that you know it is strong enough to pick up all of the soda.
