Natural Cleaning Products
The following is a list of non toxic cleaning products.
Baking soda-This is an all purpose cleaner and is very effective on glass coffee pots and glassware. It also removes red wine stains from carpets. A paste made with water can shine stainless steel and silver. The paste is also good at removing tea stains from cups and saucers.
Grapefruit seed extract-Add this to water in a spray bottle for an odourless way to remove mold and mildew.
Lemon juice-Can be used as a bleaching agent on clothes and can also remove grease from stoves and worktops. Add two tablespoons of lemon juice to ten drops of real lemon oil and a few drops of jojoba oil to clean and polish wood furniture.
Coarse salt-Good for cleaning copper pans and scours cookware. Sprinkle salt on fresh spillages in the oven and wipe off. Sprinkle some salt on rust stains then squeeze a lime or lemon over them. Sit for several hours then wipe off.
Tea tree oil-This can be added to vinegar/water solutions and has anti-bacterial properties. Will kill mold and mildew and can be used on kitchen and bathroom surfaces instead of chemical products. Add 50 drops to a bucket of water to clean worktops and tile floors.
