I know I have been promising some eco friendly cleaning tips for the home.. here are some to get you started..
White Vinegar - disinfects and neutralises grease, great all round cleaning agent. Add fresh herbs to hot vinegar to make a multi purpose solution that smells better than straight vinegar.
Eucalyptus Oil - disinfectant, antiseptic & insect repellant. Removes grease, gum & adhesives. Great wool wash.
Lemon - because lemons are naturally acidic they are a mild bleach. They will cut through grease & soften stains. Also a great insect repellant.
Salt - using a salty solution near food preparation areas is a great way to disinfect and keep bugs away from the kitchen.
Bicarb of Soda - non-poisonous and a great stain remover. Great abrasive polish for the bathroom. A small pot in the fridge will absorb unpleasant smells.
Olive Oil - protective oil for wooden & leather surfaces. Equal parts olive oil & vinegar clean & polish timber & remove scratch marks.
