How Do You Use Non Toxic Cleaners?
Nowadays people everywhere are learning the importance of “living green.” There are many ways to inexpensively clean your house by using natural alternatives. These alternatives can be safely used in place of dangerous, toxic chemicals that are harming our environment. Baking soda mixed with plain water can be used to clean, deodorize, and scour surfaces. It can also be used to remove carpet stains. Lemon is effective against most household bacteria. It can also be used to remove soap scum, mold, and mildew by applying it directly. Tip: Use the rind of the lemon for scrubbing. White vinegar will cut grease, remove mildew, diminish odors and remove wax buildups. Borax (sodium borate) can be used to clean, deodorize, disinfect, and clean wallpaper and wall and floor stains. Washing soda (or SAL Soda) will cut grease, remove stains, soften water, clean walls, tiles, sinks, and tubs. Cornstarch can be used to clean windows, polish furniture, and remove carpet stains.
