This means that the lemon has diffused all its virtues in the liquid.
Why does it work?
Thanks to its acidity, white vinegar is an effective disinfectant for cleaning everything in the house including the coronavirus which is fragile when it is in the open air.
According to Dr Damien Mascret, "White vinegar is effective against Covid-19 because it destroys the lipid layer of the virus, which is the fatty layer that surrounds viruses".
The acetic acid in vinegar also naturally eliminates germs from all surfaces and doorknobs in the home.
Lemon also strengthens the disinfecting power of white vinegar.
