Safe cleaning products are needed greatly in our houses, workplaces, and business places.  They can keep harmful disease threats such as viruses, bacteria, and germs from inflicting us.  Through the use of safe cleaning products, our health will be preserved at its utmost status.

There are two things that you need to consider in buying these cleaning products—first, its toxicity to human beings and second, the effect of these products to the environment.  There are other intricate chemical compounds that are used in making cleaning products but they are not safe on the environment.  True, they could clean your household items, remove dirt and stains, but they fill the atmosphere with more damaging and harsh vapors.  Oftentimes, traces of toxicity are left on the surface.

So it is deemed relevant to acquire safe cleaning products such as plant-based natural cleaners.  Plant-based natural cleaners have the same potent cleaning action but they are not strong smelling and gentle on the skin.  Some of these plant-based natural chemicals are the common household salt, plant gum, coconut milk, coconut fibers (which are used as scrubs), and cow’s milk.

These safe cleaning products could be the perfect solution for the many cleaning issues in business places.  They could be “plus points” for your stores or restaurants as they are eco-friendly.  An establishment that advocates eco-friendly substances such as plant-based cleaning products are attractive to most people nowadays.

Hospitals can also utilize this for a germ-free environment which is needed for places that need a sterile approach. Schools can also benefit with this especially to very young students since they are vulnerable to sickness. So bear these things in mind when purchasing your safe cleaning products.

A picture of a baby playing innocently on a clean and safe red carpet is breath-taking, with their angelic smile, and sweet facial reactions.  As parents, we will not allow someone to hurt our precious child, not even dirt well hidden underneath the carpet surface.  Vacuum cleaners provide great help, but cannot do the job alone.

Before getting helps from industrial grade experts, you might want to try first some eco-friendly, safe, in your house, and  less costly way of cleaning your carpet.

Households products  like salt, club soda, baking powder, corn starch; vinegar and hydrogen peroxide are all effective carpet stain removers, deodorizers and disinfectants.   You can utilize these products to make your own safe carpet cleaning products versus buying a costly dangerous product at the supermarket.

And if these household products does not gives you the result you want, you can also try commercially available products that has “Green Label ” tab, some also ” non-toxic ” and environmental friendly” label.   Take a look at the label in back.  If you see just a common sense caution label on these about not getting it in your eyes etc, you will know it is a gentler product versus the “warning” on many toxic cleaners that can be very dangerous for children.

There are also some products available in the market that have a “Baby Safe” label, there are companies that specialize in manufacturing products for babies care and needs.

Having these products and using it correctly,  gives parents a feeling of safety,  knowing so well that their babies are safe and protected from any harm and disease caused by bacteria or the cleaners they are using to clean the dirt.

A smart way to clean your house safe and toxic free is by using all naturals cleaning solutions. Here are  7 simple tips for cleaning your home by using your homemade  and sustainable natural cleaning products or commercial available, over the counter cleaning products. You can also share own tips.

a) Go for the Basics.

The all natural cleaning products available are the same cleaning materials that our great great grand parents used centuries ago.

Here is a list of natural products that will get you on your way to cleaning naturally:

• Baking Soda – good for scrubbing dirty surface also reacts to lemon and vinegar.

• Borax – It whitens, disinfects, and deodorizes area and surface.

• Lemon Juice – Deodorizes, disinfects and cut through greases.

• Olive Oil – Removes dirt and polishes wood surface.

• Cornstarch – Can be used to polish furniture and clean windows.

• Vinegar – Loosen dirt and disinfects.

• Washing Soda – Good rust and stain remover.

• Castile Soap – Good foaming Cleaner.

All the solutions  may not be completely safe for children, so we should keep them away from it but compared to some commercially available cleaning products; it is much less harmful and less costly  of course.

b) Find good commercially available natural products

Buying commercially available cleaning solutions can be a viable option.  Though I caution that many of the mass produced “natural” products are not really natural.  So be careful about the products you buy.  Check into a local co-op or some direct sales smaller companies online that focus on natural products.   No more measurement, no more mixing with commercially purchased natural cleaning solutions.

c) Woods

In cleaning wooden surface, there’s a mixture of olive oil and vinegar that is good, and can actually help us in making our wooden surface clean and shiny.  You will need to adjust the mixture depending on what you are cleaning.

d) Cleaning Windows

You can use a mixture of 1/4 cups of vinegar, 3 cups of water and some few drops of liquid detergent; you can also add few drops of lemon juice, and old news papers to wipe.

e) Cleaning the Bath Room.

An enclosed and ill ventilated bathroom is home for the fungi and other micro organism, a mixture of baking soda and vinegars as toilet scrub is great, and borax is also great scrubber for toilet bowl, tubs and tiles.

f) Taking care of your Drain

Make  Sure to keep  the strainer on the lid of the drainage to prevent hair, foods etc from building up inside the drain. Try not to pour oil down the drain since it can also clog your drainage.  If you have a lot of oil in the drain you can prevent it getting clogged by pouring boiling water down the drain at least once a week to melt and flush fats and oil deposits away. During unclogging time, use a plunger first, a plunger is more powerful and effective than most powerful de clogging chemicals available in market today, if this does not work, try a combination of 1/2 cup of baking soda , and 1/2 cup of white vinegar, then cover the drains if you can and let the foaming action do the work, you can also try 1/2 cup of common table salts, 1/2 cups of baking soda, 6 cups of boiling water, wait for few hours, then flush it with cold water, it this still does not work, get a plumber’s snake, if still fails you. Call an expert plumber.

g} Fresh Air

Baking Soda, vinegar or charcoal are natural deodorizers, it eliminates odor from your home, and the best to eliminates odors from your home and allow fresh air to flow, open up your windows.

Nowadays, people are not simply settling to use just any cleaning products. Cleaning products need to be environmentally friendly.

The discovery that cleaning products have adverse effects on the environment pushed scientists to research and develop environment friendly cleaning solutions for the household and even in the industries. Over the years of education and information dissemination through the media and academe, the citizens of the world have become accountable for the welfare and preservation of the environment.

Because people have become aware of the effects to health and environment of certain chemicals that are used in detergents and other cleansing agents, the demand for alternative non-harmful cleaning solutions have grown. Those products with Green Seal and Ecologo certifications are guaranteed to be environment friendly and its emission of possible contaminants is drastically reduced to safe and tolerable level.

Cleaning products that are favorable to our surroundings are usually water-based and not petroleum-based. One product that is environment friendly is labeled “Green Chemical”. Green chemicals are plant or organic-based substances and they are formulated to be non-toxic, biodegradable, and safe for the user and the environment. These eco-friendly products include cleaning substances for carpets, paint blots, grills, and exhaust tubes. There are also green chemicals available for kitchen and household clean-up.

Opting to get environmentally friendly cleaning products and disinfecting is favorable for your health and environment. Avoid quick-fix solution to your dirt and stains by using toxic and corrosive substances. Instead, always choose environment friendly products that are not harmful to you in particular and to our surroundings in general.

The commercialization of cleaning solutions and the development of so-called active chemicals that can remove any kind of blemish and dirt have caused us to abandon the use of natural cleaning solutions.

Vinegar and baking soda are known to remove stain and odor. Citrus or lemon extracts are both good stain and odor eliminators and its smell is refreshing. It is good substitute for Chlorine bleach. The concentration of your solution depends on the extent of grime and blot that you need to remove.

Guava leaves extract are known to be good disinfectant and this is popular in tropical nations where the plant abounds. To prepare a small amount of guava cleaning solution, you need to boil in one liter of water a handful of guava leaves for at most three minutes. The amount of guava leaves and water varies according to your need.

To eliminate mold and mildew, some households use tea tree oil diluted with water.  On the one hand, many are discouraged to use tea tree oil for its strong smell and it is a bit expensive.  On the other hand, a strong smell tolerance and some extra expenses in exchange for eco-friendly solutions to disease bearing mold and mildew would make the application of tea tree oil practical.

The development of enzymes, either protein or non-protein based, for the effective removal of stains is so far, one of the best alternatives. Cleaning solutions that are enzyme-based could be formulated to treat specific grime agents. For example, proteases could be applied to protein-based stains; amylases for carbohydrate and starch stains; and lipases to clean lipid and fat based dirt.

In this chemical-laden world, there is a need to go back to natural cleaning solutions to avoid the side-effects and complications of prolonged use and exposure to harmful synthetic chemicals.
