Do you currently clean your home with an all natural product?

Question

If so, what products do you use and why do you use them. What makes those products so great?

Answer 1

I have been using Lemons, White Vinegar & Baking Soda for years, they definitely work quite nicely. I dislike how chemical cleaners smell and hurt my hands. You ask what is so great about them... No smells, No odors, No burnt hands, and lastly I do not have to worry about the Children getting into something that they could put in their mouth & eyes. Each to their own, it is your decision. Should you decide to use Natural products, you can buy the Lemons & Limes even past their freshness date, because of their acid concentrate they will still work, plus you save money. This link will give you suggestions on how to use these products;

Answer 2

I like Seventh Generation products. I had an interesting experience here, in that I had been using the nasty-chemical stuff for toilet bowl cleaner on the assumption that the organic would be (a) more expensive and (b) not work as well. Finally I sent Steve out to buy toilet bowl cleaner and he brought home the organic kind. It worked BETTER than the nasty-chemical stuff!

I have had similar experiences with other cleaning products, but that one was the most dramatic. I started out buying the organic from a dedicated California Tree-Hugger point of view, and ended up using them because they work better! Of course, it is also helping to cut down on pollution.

Answer 3

I am an American citizen living in Germany, and cannot read what some of the cleaning products say on them, and therefore have to resort to a lot of natural products.

I use vinegar in the kitchen a lot.
