Green cleaning

For some, green cleaning means only using products such as vinegar, baking soda, and lemons to clean surfaces. Others may seek out cleaners created with our environment in mind avoiding chlorine, phosphates, artificial fragrances and added coloring.Pre-packaged cleaning products can make use of recycled packaging or donate a portion of their profits to environmental causes and a few cleaners on the market are said to be biodegradable.

You can create your own cleaners following these simple formulas.

All Purpose Cleaner

This formula disinfects and can be used
on any washable surface in your home.
Since it’s antiviral and antifungal it’s particularly
suitable for kitchen’s and bathroom’s.

1 cup water, 1 cup vinegar,
2 tsp. liquid castile soap (usually sold as a concentrate)
25 drops essential oil of Thyme, Eucalyptus,
Tea tree, Lavender, Sandalwood or Lemon
Add all ingredients to a large spray bottle
(about 22 oz. and shake before using)
