Ingredients:250ml liquid castile soap, 200g baking soda, 500ml hot water, 100g salt.

Dissolve baking soda and salt in hot water. Pour everything into a 4 liter container and add the Castile soap. Fill the rest of the container with water.

Put 50ml per machine. With this recipe, you should be able to make about sixty machines. Nice saving, isn't it?

3. Dishwasher tablets

Mix 250 ml of Castile soap in 250 ml of water and add 2 teaspoons of lemon juice then shake gently.

To use it, put a tablespoon of this mixture in the tablet compartment and add 250 ml of white vinegar in the rinse aid compartment.

Add more vinegar if your water is hard.

4. Multi-purpose cleaner

In a soap pump bottle, put 50 ml of Castile soap, and fill the rest of the bottle with distilled water (about 250 ml).

Optional:add 1/8 teaspoon of essential oil, such as tea tree for its antibacterial properties or lemon for its deodorant properties or even lavender for its pleasant fragrance.

9. Dog shampoo

Once your dog is thoroughly wet, put a few squirts of Peppermint Castile Soap on his fur.

Rub it well until you have a nice lather.

Then simply rinse it off with lukewarm water. Be careful not to put it in the dog's ears or eyes.

10. Glass cleaner

Mix 100 ml of white vinegar, 2 teaspoons of liquid Castile soap and 2 cups of hot distilled water.
