Eco cleaning products  

i use equal parts of vinegar and rubbing alcohol for surface cleaner, floor cleaner and glass cleaner. make soft scrub with washing soda / baking soda / borax and a bit of liquid castle soap for soft scrub. all of my face care products are natural(and homemade) now, and i am working on bath products.

l like Pine Sol for my floors, & use Vim degreaser for the counter top and stove.
I also sometimes use Mr.Clean...but I do like the fresh smell of Febreeze, more than the others. The only thing that's "green" in my house, is the garbage bags.

I'm very sensitive to chemical cleaning products, but I do use things like bleach, occasionally. Mostly, it's vinegar and baking soda. I even use vinegar as a shower spray after I shower. The counters are cleaned with an all-natural surface cleaner that's cheaper than most of the chemical ones -- and it smells great! I do like to keep bleach around for our white, cast iron sink, but the only time it stains is when we're gone and my SIL keeps pouring coffee into it without rinsing it afterwards!

I have been gradually getting away from chemical cleaning products, for the sake of our health, and I don't like them around my daughter. The one thing I have notice is a lot of companies are coming out with green products that are suppose to be safer. I do want to get a steam mop, but my fiance is worried that it will ruin our floors. We just put in new laminate wood flooring. Have you had any issues with yours?

We are not exposed enough about this topic and this is why community site like MyLot should play their role. A discussion like this help people like me a lot. I have to admit I still use chemical cleaning product. It is more easy, but I think I will try the alternative one day...

I clean most everything with vinegar and/or baking soda. Even the "environmentally-friendly" products that are sold in the stores seem to have a lot of unnecessary ingredients.

I noticed this discussion hadn't gotten any responses in awhile and I thought that it would be a good idea to let everyone else know about it. I'm going to make a discussion about a list of discussions I have responded to that haven't been responded to lately. This is the first discussion I found for cleaning so this will be first on the list. To get to the response, I don't use any of these type of cleaners but I also don't clean my own house yet, my fiance and I live with his parents and we're happy here. When and if we do move I'll probably be using stuff like this as I like being environmentally friendly.
