It is not necessary to use a specific cleaning product for each surface in the house, unless the surface requires special cleaning. If not, you can use common cleaners for different surfaces around the house.
For example, dish soap can be used for purposes other than dishwashing, alone or in combination with other substances readily available around the house. They are alternative uses that deserve to be known to compensate for the lack of availability of some products.
Remove stains from fabrics

Food or wine stains on tablecloths, or other stains on more abrasion-resistant fabrics, can be treated with dish soap and hydrogen peroxide in a 1:3 ratio.
Mix them and leave them on the tablecloth. If the tablecloth is colored, always check that the hydrogen peroxide does not discolor the fabric. This mixture can be used as a preventive treatment before the normal wash cycle.
Clean kitchen cabinets and shelves.

When you don’t have a degreaser on hand, you can use the detergent on a dirty kitchen counter or cabinet door covered in grease, which forms after cooking. Simply emulsify a little with lukewarm water, apply and wipe over the area to be cleaned, perhaps letting it act a little on the most difficult spots, then rinse and dry with a microfiber cloth.
Clean the bathroom

Combine 1 cup of vinegar and 1 tablespoon of cornstarch in a microwave safe bowl. Heat the mixture in the microwave on medium power for 1 minute. Then pour 2 tablespoons of detergent into the spray bottle, add the hot vinegar and starch mixture and shake well.
Then spray it on all the dirt in the bathtub, sink or any other bathroom surface (including the shower), let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse it with warm water and then dry it with a microfiber cloth.

Mixing a tablespoon of dish soap with water in a spray bottle (I also want to add a tablespoon of vinegar for extra effectiveness) makes for a versatile cleaner that can clean everything around the house, including removable parts on vacuum cleaners, ball joint dishes from microwave ovens and even stains around the stove.
