Contaminants are released into the air when using the conventional cleaning products that are more toxic and dangerous for your overall health. You have to understand that the poor air quality is likely to affect your overall health sooner or later.
It is a better choice to go for the green products. They will help you to reduce your exposure to toxic contaminants. You are also protecting your family and children by going green and clean.
Make it a family affair…Try making your home made cleaning products as a family unit. It can be a green and fun family activity.
Home Made Green Product Ideas…
- Using white vinegar to soft your fabrics. Even if you have very sensitive skin, you will be pleased with the final results. The vinegar should stay undiluted. Simply add a half cup to the rinse cycle.
- Use baking soda to clean and absorb unpleasant odors. You can also use it to clean the bath tube or the kitchen sink.
- Lemon juice is another green and clean way to go. It can be sued to dissolve hard water stains and soap scum. Lemon juice can also be used in order to make copper and brass shine. If mixed with baking soda and vinegar it will become a strong and natural cleaner.
- Alcohol and vinegar can be used in order to clean glass. You will need some basic ingredients in order to obtain an awesome green and clean glass cleaner. Mix 1 cup of rubbing alcohol with 1 cup of water and 1 tablespoon white vinegar. Mix well. This can also be used to clean mirrors and windows.
- Recycle your newspaper and use it to clean your mirrors and scum filled places. It will save paper by not using paper towels…or water by not using rags that will have to be washed!
It is easier and more cost effective to make home made cleaning products. It is also a great way to make God’s planet greener! Remember, all you will need are a few simple ingredients like baking soda, vinegar, lemon, and soap. Making home made cleaning products can also help bring the family together and increase the desire to help with house cleaning and going green!
