Reasons to Go Green When You Clean 

Have you ever sprayed a chemical and started coughing or gagging because it was so strong? Not only is the smell off-putting, it can be toxic for you and your family. Chemicals are known to increase allergies and skin irritations in people and pets. 

Using more natural cleaning products has many benefits. For one, when buying eco-friendly products, you are buying products that have not been tested on animals. Also, the packaging is usually made from recycled materials. The product is much less likely to irritate your lungs and skin during use. Air quality in your home will be improved, and you are contributing to better air quality in the outside environment. 

You can make your own cleaning products or buy them. There are many online tutorials on how to make them. Many of them include ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and essential oils. Stores are carrying more and more different brands of products with natural ingredients, and because of the popularity and increasing competition, you can find ones that meet your budget. Along with natural cleaning agents, try using microfiber cleaning cloths instead of paper towels to reduce waste in the environment. It is also very cost-effective.
