Cleaning Products

Dan Sharp (Green Family Expert) gives expert video advice on: Where can I get environmentally friendly cleaning products? and more...

What kind of cleaning products are better for my family and the environment?

Cleaning products that are better for the environment are cleaning products that are bio-degradable because they break down very easily. Also, cleaning products that don't have harsh chemicals. The EPA says the main cause of indoor pollution is cleaning products. By eliminating cleaning products that have lots of chemicals, you are eliminating a lot of indoor pollution.

Where can I get environmentally friendly cleaning products?

Environmentally friendly cleaning products are becoming more and more available. You can find them at a lot of different stores that you might shop at regularly, health food stores, or online. It's a relatively easy thing to change. That was one of the easiest things for me because they're about the same price as brand name cleaners but just with a lot of benefits for your home and the environment.

Can I make my own household cleaning products?

There are many products that you can use to clean with that are environmentally friendly, that you have around your house. Some things that you can use to clean with are borax, baking soda, vinegar, and environmentally friendly dishwashing liquid. You can also get oils to mix with it so you get something that you really enjoy. There's a lot of information online about how to use those different products.

    A dab of water on a cloth gets most stains out of microfibre upholstery and you can perform wonders with a suede brush - but make sure that the dirt is completely dry beforehand.

    Simple Green is a great product that is biodegradable and chemicaly benign. It comes in many different formulas, I'd wager there's one for upolstry.
