People get exposed to pollution and various toxins on a daily basis. Smog, exhaust, second hand smoke are the obvious pollutants when you go outdoors but there are also harmful fumes that may be present inside your own homes. A lot of the cleansers available in supermarkets are chemical based which means they also contribute to the pollution inside the house. Homemakers who want to rid themselves of these pollutants can switch to organic or homemade cleansers for a healthier home.
The ideal option is to make your own mixture of cleansers and disinfectants using ingredients found in your kitchen. Baking soda, vinegar, and lemon are three cleansing ingredients that one can easily find in the kitchen. Baking soda can be used to clean dirt, grease, stubborn kitchen stains and odors. The internet is rich in baking soda recipes for general cleaning, deodorizing, scouring, and special cleansers for the oven, silver, carpet and drains. Vinegar is another useful cleansing ingredient that can help remove mildew, stains, grease, odors, and wax build-up. You can also use it as a homemade furniture polish by mixing it up with oil. It can also one of the ingredients used for a DIY disinfectant cleanser as well as a fruit and vegetable wash.
Lemon and other citrus fruits usually emit a strong and pleasant scent which makes them a favorite display on kitchen counters. They are practical decorations that help in making a room smell fragrantly clean. This fragrant citrus can be used as natural bleach that can help remove stains from fabric and surfaces. Homemakers who need to remove soap residues or dissolve hard water build-up can also count on the lemon for these tasks. It is also effective in eliminating most household bacteria that can harm the family. Those who neither have the time or energy to whip up homemade cleansers can go for organic versions found in supermarkets. Messy Bessy is one of the local brands well known for organic cleansing products.
Going for homemade cleansers offers a lot of benefits for the household. But the best benefit of all is that they do the cleaning jobs efficiently without posing harm to your furnishings and the family’s health.
