In a way, cleaning is chemistry - not that that fact makes it any more fun. What should you NEVER mix with bleach while making your own cleaning supplies, as the combo creates toxic chlorine gas?

Despite the combination making for a good disinfectant, when combined, these common cleaning agents are a no-no. The acid in vinegar releases toxic chlorine and chloramine vapors when added to bleach. Beware of this combination causing chemical burns to your eyes and lungs.
