A simple and effective homemade grout cleaner can be made with baking soda and white vinegar.

Mix equal parts baking soda and white vinegar in a bowl to create a paste.
Apply the paste to the grout using an old toothbrush or a grout brush.
Let the paste sit for 10-15 minutes, then scrub the grout with the brush.
Rinse the grout with water and dry it with a clean cloth.

Here are some other homemade grout cleaning solutions:

  • Hydrogen peroxide: Mix equal parts hydrogen peroxide and baking soda to create a paste.
  • Lemon juice: Mix lemon juice and baking soda to create a paste.
  • Borax: Mix borax and water to create a paste.

Tips for cleaning grout:

  • Wear gloves: Protect your hands from the cleaning agents.
  • Test in an inconspicuous area: Ensure the cleaning solution does not damage your grout or tile.
  • Work in small sections: Focus on cleaning one section of grout at a time.

Note: For heavily stained grout, you may need to use a stronger commercial cleaner.
