Make your own cleaners for baths and sinks
Can you look in your laundry and bathroom cupboards and find umpteen tins and bottles of pungent, toxic cleaners? One whiff of any of them will probably leave you short of breath.
Chemical cleaners are wiped around toilet seats, baths and kitchen surfaces, not to mention the fact that our clothes are drenched in them each time we do the washing. A lot of cleaning products are absorbed by our skin. Many are carcinogenic and can affect our central nervous system.
So far we have only mentioned the affect on our bodies but what about the affect on our environment. That's another story we don't need to go into here as you are well aware of how fragile it is.
Lets get down to something constructive and make some healthy cleaners. Most of ingredients are in your pantry right now, so let's get started.
Read here about the ingredients you will be using.
Clean your sinks & baths:
Cleaning method 1:
Sprinkle baking soda on a wet cloth. Rub the sink well and rinse off to prevent a hazy film.
Cleaning method 2:
Combine 1 and 2/3 cups baking soda with 1/2 cup liquid soap and 1/2 cup water. Mix well and then add 2 tablespoons white vinegar. Don't put the vinegar into the mixture until it is already well combined. Rub on with a damp cloth and rinse well.
