SPRINGING INTO ACTION – NATURAL CLEANING PRODUCTS FOR YOUR AVENTURA HOME
Do we really need to smell amonia and or clorox in our Aventura or Miami homes to consider them clean?
The truth is, once you get it out of your head that you need your house to smell like a freshly sterilized hospital room, you’ll find your best cleaning supplies right in your own pantry. Baking soda and vinegar will often work to clean just about anything, including toilet bowls, soap scum and kitchen sinks.
Try some club soda and a clean rag to scrub it out. This also works wonders on garments, as I thankfully learned when I spilled red wine on my champagne-colored dress at my brother’s wedding. (No need to point out the irony, folks. I get it.)What can I use for my everyday household cleaning?
Simply, mix 1 cup vinegar with 1 cup water in a spray bottle and you’re ready to go. For more serious disinfecting, try having one spray bottle of vinegar around and one spray bottle of hydrogen peroxide (make this one a dark bottle since light can change the properties of hydrogen peroxide). Different sources have proved that spraying these two nontoxic ingredients on your countertops can kill 10 times more bacteria than peroxide alone.
