Non-toxic Ways To Help With Your Filthy House Cleaning
Reluctant though we may be to admit it, at one time or another we will all
be responsible for some filthy house cleaning chores.
It might be the case that you're moving into a home that hasn't been occupied
for some time, or that you've recently had some renovations done and the
house is full of dust and dirt.
Whatever the case may be, using non-toxic materials to help clean the
filth in your home is not only environmentally friendly, but also a good
way to get the cleaning done. So here are some useful things to note about
two of our most productive non-toxic house cleaning materials: baking soda
and vinegar.
Baking soda
You can use baking soda for an array of cleaning chores around your home.
Chief among these, however, is to make the baking soda into a paste. You
can then use this paste to help you scrub all your stainless steel, copper
pots, iron cutlery.
As if that is not handy enough, sprinkling some baking soda on your carpet
and leaving it overnight before vacuuming it up the next day acts as a
superb non-toxic carpet deodorizer. You'll find doing this helps clear up
the smell in your carpet better than any other cleaning product you put
down on the carpet.
Vinegar
Vinegar is one of the most useful non-toxic materials you can find around
the house. Using vinegar mixed with water in a bucket is one of the best
ways you can clean all the dirt and mess off your windows. It also leaves
a lovely sheen look to your windows.
Another fantastic use of vinegar is to help get rid of all those nasty
chewing gum accidents. If you find some terror has trodden chewing gum onto
your carpet, simply get the vinegar out and pour some of this around the area
where the chewing gum is. Leave it for a while and then go back. What you'll
find is that the vinegar has dissolved the chewing gum and you no longer
have a messy problem!
Finally, a useful mix of both baking soda and vinegar will allow you to make
some great air freshener. Simply mix one part baking soda with one part vinegar
and two parts water and then let the mixture settle. After this, spray the
mixture in the air. You'll be surprised the effect it has on helping give a
fresh smell to complete your filthy house cleaning chores!
