Top 3 Eco-Friendly Alternatives to Harsh Cleaning Chemicals

March 10, 2021 by Post

Fortunately, many people have been gaining more awareness about the importance of switching to eco-friendly products to save our environment. However, this is not the only reason to switch from harsh cleaning chemicals. If you have watched House M.D., you have probably spent a few days in paranoia over products we use without understanding the real extent of their damage. 

Due to current events, we are spending more time than ever in our houses. If you are wondering about the products you have been using and their dangers, here are three alternative eco-friendly options you can switch to instead of settling for harsh cleaning chemicals.

  1. Organic Products

There are hundreds of organic cleaning products on the market. This doesn’t make the choice any easier. However, it is important to take a second to look at the ingredient table on your organic products before using them. Claiming to be “all-natural”, “all plant-based”, and so on is not enough to put your trust in a product. It is essential to make sure that it has the USDA-certified organic label. While you might think that you would never get the same cleaning quality as other harsh chemicals would offer, there are lots of organic products that can get the job done such as dropps, frosch, earthhero, and more.

  1. Seek Help

For many people with allergies or respiratory problems, using harsh chemicals to get their house clean is an asthma attack waiting to happen. Harsh chemicals linger and can cause problems even if the person who struggles with an allergy hasn’t been directly subjected to them. This is why there are many people who struggle with asthma attacks after they have gotten their houses professionally cleaned. Experienced house cleaners in Ohio recommend ensuring that only organic products have been used in any house cleaning service you seek to avoid subjecting yourself or your family to environmental-led issues. This also applies to people who have committed to living a green lifestyle that doesn’t harm the environment.

  1. Home-made Ingredients

If you can’t trust organic products on the market, and you still need cleaning products for maintenance between house cleaning service schedules, you can get creative with some house ingredients you have in your kitchen cabinet. Doing so would help you save a lot of time and energy. Here are some suggestions you can try out.

  •  Baking soda has been trusted for years to deodorize and clean.
  • In the light of recent events, many people have discovered the power of using alcohol as the perfect disinfectant.
  •  White vinegar can work as a great dissolvent for grease, odors, stains, and removing wax buildups.
  • Cornstarch can be used in cleaning windows, polishing furniture, and shampooing rugs and carpets.
  • For kitchens and bathrooms, hydrogen peroxide is the perfect disinfectant and stain remover.

Our planet is severely damaged, it’s only responsible that we start paying attention to our actions, regardless of how minor or unimportant. Taking a look at the products you use for cleaning is definitely a start since there are many harmful chemicals that we could be subjecting ourselves and our environment. Switching to organic products, whether they are used by professionals, on shelves, or home-made, is a much smarter decision to protect ourselves and the environment from the dangers of harsh cleaning products.
