Enviromentally Friendly Household Cleaners
Lots of chemicals that we buy in ready made products for use around the house are extremely nasty. Lots of them give our
irritating fumes and are dangerous to touch, and if they leach in
to the environment or are not disposed of correctly, they can
cause damage to the environment.
Therefore why not make use of the fact that there are many
products around the house that you already have that are good for
cleaning and that you should be able to harness to make your
household cleaner with these DIY products!
Here are some really useful basic items that you can use to make
the appropriate cleaner for you:
Baking soda
This is great for scrubbing
Borax
This is really good for removes smells and so is good in the
laundry, in addition it also helps to disinfect
Normal vinegar
Great for cleaning and giving a shine when added to the water
used to clean windows for instance
Olive oil
Good for collecting dirt and a little bit on wood gives a nice
polish effect
Lemon
Great for dissolving grease due to the acid contents
