An organised mum has shared how to make a DIY cleaning spray that leaves her fridge spotless and sparkling.

To begin the deep clean Chantel simply removes all of the refrigerated items from the shelves, crisper and fridge door.

A home hack queen has shared how to make a DIY cleaning spray that leaves her fridge spotless and sparkling every time she performs a deep clean
She then pours one cup of water into a spray bottle followed by half a cup of white vinegar.
White vinegar contains acetic acid which makes it a popular cleaning agent and disinfectant against grease.
Next she pours two tablespoons of vanilla extract into the spray bottle to add a nice scent and to cancel out the strong vinegar smell.
Vanilla extract is a surprisingly useful cleaning agent as it contains a small amount of alcohol that cuts through grime while leaving a sweet scent
Vanilla extract is another useful cleaning agent as it contains a small amount of alcohol that cuts through grime while leaving a sweet scent.
Once the three liquids are inside the spray bottle Chantel begins spraying the fridge compartments and wiping away grime with a sponge as she goes.
‘This mix is powerful at cutting through spills and stuck on mess,’ Chantel said.
‘I am going to try this first thing tomorrow! This was the motivation I needed to clean my fridge,’ a mum wrote below Chantel’s cleaning video
Once every section has been cleaned the mum-of-two finishes by re-organising and placing all of the items neatly back into the fridge.
‘I am going to try this first thing tomorrow! This was the motivation I needed to clean my fridge,’ a mum wrote below the cleaning video.
‘Love this hack! I’ve also used this in the car to spray my seat… Amazing,’ another suggested.
