DIY Disinfectant Cleaning Wipes

These DIY reusable disinfectant wipes are a game-changer! They’re super easy to make, non-toxic, and way cheaper than store-bought wipes
Yield: 10 wipes

Materials

  • 1 cup isopropyl alcohol (I used 91%, but anything over 70% works)
  • 1 cup warm water
  • 1 tbsp liquid Castile soap
  • 1 cup vinegar (optional)
  • 15-20 drops essential oils
  • glass jar
  • Cloths (old t-shirts, microfiber, or cotton cloths work great)

Instructions

  • Mix the alcohol, water, castile soap, vinegar and essential oils in the jar.
  • Add the cloths and submerge them until fully soaked.
  • Let them sit for a bit to absorb the liquid. If they’re dripping wet, you can remove some liquid so they’re just damp (not soaking) when you use them.

Notes

  • To use them just pull out a cloth whenever you need to disinfect something.
  • I keep a basket for used cloths (along with kitchen towels) and toss them in the washer when they’re dirty.
  • When the liquid runs out, just refill and repeat.
