  1. How To Avoid Chemicals When Cleaning

  2. 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!

  3. 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.

  4. Baking Soda: This cheap, store cupboard essential also deodorizes and neutralises nasty odours, while making a fantastic scouring product for counters and surfaces. If you’re 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 cat’s 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.

  5. 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 you’ll 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, you’ll 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!
