Clean a Stone Patio Naturally!
It's been a long summer and if you have an outdoor patio made of stone, you know it had a lot of foot traffic. So, how do you give it that deep, down clean in a natural way? All it takes is a few on-hand ingredients and some elbow grease.
Step 1: Add 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a bucket or bowl of warm water (approximately 1 gallon of water).
Step 2: Add a few drops of dish soap. Mix all ingredients together.
Step 3: Using a heavy duty soft bristle brush, pour small amounts of the mixture onto various areas of the stone patio, and begin scrubbing in circular motions.
Step 4: Let your wet stone patio dry naturally to reveal a much cleaner patio.

God love all of you with good knees! Go buy a long handled patio brush at the Home Dept. I think I paid less than $10.00 and it’s more than worth it.
