Are you sick of using chemical cleaner with pungent chemical scent that GOD KNOWS WHAT it does to you and your family’s health in the long run? Try enzymes cleaner!
Especially effective at removing organic stains such as blood, grass, hair, sweat and urine, enzymes cleaner works by breaking down tough stains with natural enzymatic activities (like the one happening in our body right now). They are also gentle to fabrics and surfaces. Depending on your cleaning needs, the three main types of enzymes in these cleaners are as follows:
Amylase:
This breaks down starches, including sugar, flour or some sauces
Protease:
This removes protein-based stains such as urine, blood or hair
Lipase:
This keeps away oily and greasy stains such as your favourite curry or sambal stains
Most importantly, they can be easily prepared with only 4 simple ingredients in your kitchen!
You can use citrus peels such as orange, lemon and grapefruit or even peels from other produce such as pineapple and kiwi as they all contain naturally-occurring enzymes on their peel which are effective cleaning solvents. Once you have collected enough fruit peels, it’s time to put in some work!
You can use this enzyme cleaner to clean tough stains, wash laundry or mix with vinegar for an even stronger cleaner. Just experiment and have fun!
