The Ann Arbor Real Estate Beat: Green Cleaning ? do you know ...


I would like to introduce a few options for ?Green Cleaning Products? in your home. Do you know that each year millions of people put themselves and their families at risk, just by exposing them to normal, everyday cleaning products? The great news is ? it?s easy not to be one of them!

1st Option ? Ever heard of Shaklee (www.shaklee.com)? Not only are they the number one natural nutrition company in the United States, they are a manufacturer of several SAFE (and YUMMY smelling!) cleaning products. Their products are safe, effective and concentrated ? so a little bit goes a long way! Their GetClean Starter Kit includes Organic Super Cleaning Concentrate, Germ Off Disinfecting Wipes, Nature Bright Laundry Brightener and Spot Remover and several other products including Dish Detergent, Laundry Detergent, bottles, measuring spoons and a caddy!

2nd Option ? Make your own products to use. Do you know how cheap and easy this is? Clogged Drain? Pour ? a cup of baking soda and 1/3 cup of vinegar down the drain and cover. Blast it with boiling hot water 15 minutes later. Piece of cake! Vinegar to the rescue again?fill a 32 oz. spray bottle with water and ? cup of vinegar to use on all of your windows and mirrors. Use a recycled coffee filter or newspaper instead of cloths or paper towel for a streak free shine. Vinegar and essential oils of wintergreen, orange or lemon can be used in several ways to disinfect, clean and freshen areas of your home. A simple search on www.google.com will tell you all you need to know!

3rd Option ? Hire a ?green? cleaning service (YAY!) Check out Nicole?s TLC Cleaning based out of Plymouth, MI (www.nicolestlccleaning.com). They are bonded and insured, and your satisfaction is guaranteed. They are professional and have a very informational website that includes a list of all of the cleaners that they use.

There are hazards lurking everywhere, and with you and your family?s health at risk it is just NOT worth it. Many chemicals are hazardous to your health just by breathing them in during cleaning, but an even bigger problem occurs when these chemicals mix together. It?s unreasonable to throw out everything and try to change overnight, but each one of us can make an impact just by incorporating some of the ideas above. Questions? Let me know ?
