Steep the citrus peels in vinegar for a couple of weeks. I shook mine daily, and flipped it upside down for the second week. I don't know that it made a difference, but I felt like it did. ;)

After the 2 weeks, strain the vinegar off and pour it into a spray bottle. I used the excess peels to clean the garbage disposal, but I have heard of people using the same peels 2-3 times the same way.

I do the same using lemons as I have a friend who has a tree so prolific she can't keep up with using them all. I also dilute mine down to half water when I put it in the spray bottle and keep a few jars in the pantry steeping ahead of time. It's great for odours and really makes things shine, especially metal.
