Cleaning Green - Save a Human!
Cleaning Green - Hey, want to make a few of your own cleaning products and SAVE A HUMAN!
It isn't that hard to do if you want to bad enough. If you are sick of the toxic smell and odor of commercial products why don't you do something about it.
There is not one area in your house that can't be cleaned without using chemically laden products from your local chain store.
Yeah, they might be cheap to buy but the price on your health is going to add up fast.
Are you motivated, fired up and ready to make a few of your own cleaners? Cleaning Green - Ok, I have one for you and then I will give you a few more.
Glass Cleaner. I make my own glass cleaner from a simple mixture of vinegar and purified water. It is easy, just get a spray bottle. Rinse the bottle out and make sure no chemicals from other products are in the bottle.
Now, just take some vinegar, not to much and it is all according to the size of the bottle. If you have a 16oz bottle put in 2oz of white vinegar and the rest water. Hey, it works. If you have to clean a window with smoke residue on it mix a little more vinegar.
According to Turi.Org "Safer alternatives to hazardous cleaning products exist for nearly every type of household cleaner. Listed below are links to several do-it-yourself recipes for basic household cleaners. Many of these recipes have been performance tested by the TURI Cleaning Laboratory as indicated in the tables."
These alternatives to traditional commercial household cleaners are easy to make out of common household ingredients, will most likely cost you less than store bought products and can work just as well!
The recipes listed use ingredients commonly found in household cupboards.
We have collected some basic health and safety information on the individual components to help you decide which recipes will be right for you.
