But it doesn’t SMELL clean!!!

Tuesday, January 10th, 2012

The National Academy of Science reports that up to 95 percent of the chemicals used to make fragrances are synthetic compounds derived from petroleum, including known toxins capable of causing cancer, birth defects, central nervous system disorders, and allergic reactions. Many of these chemicals are derived from benzene one of the most carcinogenic chemicals known to man.

Our noses may fool us into thinking that a particular scent is the smell of clean, but we need to adjust our perspective!  One of the cleanest scents I can think of is going outside after a fresh spring rain.  What makes the air smell so great?  Positive ions!

Our chemical free cleaning method is based on the cleaning power of water – steam and positively charged ions in water!  For more information, please go to www.TheYearofHomeDetox.com.

1) Q-tips - gunk around your sink?  Detailed silver need shining? Jewlery looking dingy?  Keyboard on your computer gross?  Q-tips can help you get them clean easily and quickly!

2) Club Soda - fill a spray bottle with club soda and a splash of lemon juice and you have a handy stain fighter!

3) Salt - Salt can be mixed with vinegar to create a good general purpose cleaner. Don’t use it on waxed surfaces, marble or linoleum because the vinegar may be too strong for the surface and cause damage. This vinegar and salt mix can be used for general cleaning around the house.

4) Vinegar - An amazing multi use cleaner you can use all around the house – You can do everything from counter tops to tubs (depending on the surface) with this wonder cleaner!

5) Baking Soda - Let’s not forget one of our favorites!  In fact, you can click here: http://www.teresasfamilycleaning.com/house-cleaning/uses-for-baking-soda/ to see a great blog post on just this!
