Stinky sink, stinky sink, my mama's got a stinky sink...

Anyone else have toddlers? If you do, you probably started singing the title of this post! 

We've got a garbage disposal, which I love. I'm pretty good about cleaning our the sink most nights. I don't like to leave dirty dishes in the sink. I tend to run the dishwasher at night so everything can dry overnight and then put it all away in the morning. But every once in a while...

the garbage disposal stinks.

If you have been reading my blog, you know I like to make my own cleaners with non-toxic, every day things you've got in your home. The reason I started making my own was because of my girls. We've got two little girls who like to explore just about everything. They like to play in the kitchen and pretend to mix things together. Sometimes that pretending leads to opening, which leads to all kinds of interesting combinations!

Because I never want my girls to ingest, poison, or burn themselves with something toxic and harmful, I started using a lot of vinegar, baking soda and the like. So began my journey with essential oils. They definitely help take care of the vinegar smell, but so many also have fantastic cleaning properties: antibacterial, antiviral, antifungal...
​


So, what's a gal to do? Whip out the baking soda once more!

Rosemary Lemon Disposal Detox
Equal parts baking soda and lemon juice (fresh or concentrate)
1-2 drops Rosemary essential oil (or a few sprigs fresh)

Method
  • In a bowl, mix together baking soda, lemon juice and Rosemary oil. I would use 2-4 tablespoons of each, depending on your needs. 
  • It will start to fizz due to the acidity of the lemon juice. Pour it down the disposal and let it sit for 5-10 minutes 
  • This is a great time to scrub out your sink while you're there! Shake out 2-4 tablespoons baking soda and a squirt of castile soap into you sink. Scrub away. Rinse when you're ready to run the garbage disposal.
  • Let cold water run and leave the disposal on for up to a minute
