Natural household cleaners that work hard
  Cleaning a house naturally is not any more difficult than cleaning it with harsh chemicals. It improves indoor air quality and is much safer, especially for children.

Common commercial cleaners are loaded with toxic and polluting substances intended to make home life easier. The costs of these chemicals can be high if we consider long-term family health issues and environmental contamination caused by their production and disposal.  ​One in three people in the US suffers from allergies, asthma, sinusitis, or bronchitis. Many cleaning chemicals are allergy and asthma causing and for the prevention of the condition should involve reducing synthetic chemicals in the home environment.

​Combinations of the different eco-friendly household items can provide less harmful substitutions for many commercial products. In most cases, they’re also less expensive. The other great thing about natural cleaning recipes is that they are safe for kids to use. The earlier, the better I say! Here are some formulas for safe, alternative home care products.
