Use ammonia, water, and vinegar to make an effective cleaner that won’t streak or leave any residue on windows and mirrors.
In a 16-ounce spray bottle, combine: 2 cups of water, 1/3 cup ammonia, and 1 tablespoon white distilled vinegar.
What To Do:

Homemade All-Purpose Cleaner Using Vinegar
Soak a few paper towels in vinegar and then wring them out. Wipe down the mirrors or windows with these damp paper towels. Then use the dry part of the paper towel to dry off any spots on mirrors or windows.

Baking Soda for Kitchen Counters
Baking soda can be an effective way to clean the kitchen counters. It is a mild cleanser that is both non-abrasive and alkaline.
First, clear any dirty items off the countertop so you can see it when you start cleaning. Then, sprinkle some baking soda on the counter and wait for about 1 hour for it to dissolve.
After that, just go over the affected area with a damp cloth or sponge to clean up any stains or food spills left behind. You can also do this process again if the first time wasn’t enough to get rid of all the stains and dirt.
