How To Avoid Chemicals When Cleaning

• In a world where most of us are far more aware of
  our impact upon the environment and want to help
  preserve the planet for future generations, more
  and more people are choosing natural cleaning
  products, seeing it as being one small way in
  which they can reduce their global footprint. Not
  only are chemical free cleaning products much
  cheaper and safer to use for both you and the
  environment, but they are easier to source too,
  with many of the ingredients sitting right at
  home in your store cupboard!

• Here are five natural housekeeping items that can
  easily clean virtually everything
• White distilled vinegar
• This is a great all-round product that not only
  disinfects surfaces and items but deodorizes
  them, too. It can remove dirt from wooden items
  and quickly dissolve hard water scale deposits,
  sticky residues and tarnish. For streak-free
  windows, nothing beats vinegar and you can even
  put a ¼ of a cup of vinegar into your laundry
  cycle to help eliminate detergent completely from
  your clothes.

• Baking Soda
• This cheap, store cupboard essential also
  deodorizes and neutralises nasty odours, while
  making a fantastic scouring product for counters
  and surfaces. If youre cleaning your carpet or
  rug, simply sprinkle some baking soda onto them
  first and it will help eliminate any lingering
  smells, and you can even line your cats litter
  tray with a cup before you add the litter. A ½
  cup of baking soda followed by a cup of vinegar
  poured down a drain and left for a few minutes
  will help remove any blockages when followed with
  boiling hot water.

• Lemon juice
• Available all year round and incredibly cheap and
  versatile, lemons and their juice can be used in
  myriad different ways to clean around the home.
  It can be used to cut through grease, add sparkle
  to metal and to lighten or minimise staining. A
  combination of lemons and baking soda works
  wonders on brass, copper, bronze and aluminium
  rub the item with a sliced lemon that has been
  sprinkled with baking soda and youll remove
  tarnish with minimum effort. ½ cup of lemon juice
  can also be added to a laundry cycle to help keep
  your clothes bright.

6

• Washing soda
• Slightly stronger than baking soda, youll need
  to wear gloves when using this product, but it
  works well for more stubborn stains. To help
  clean your oven, use a paste of 1 cup of baking
  soda along with a ¼ cup of washing soda with
  water added, apply it to the interior of your
  oven and let it soak overnight. You can also add
  it to your laundry cycle to help give your
  detergent a bit of a boost.

7

• Borax
• For solving the problem of mold and mildew, borax
  can be used very effectively as a cleaning
  product and can also be used instead of washing
  soda as a cleaner. To help get a dirty toilet
  bowl clean again, borax can be used as an
  overnight stain remover simply pour a cup of it
  into the toilet before you go to bed and give a
  light scrubbing the next morning. When you flush,
  you should find the stains and grime have
  disappeared.
• Do your bit for the environment by swapping to
  natural products when cleaning your home, and the
  next generation just might thank you for it!
