Utilize green cleaning products

Using commercial green products is a good way to get the job done, however you should be aware of other opportunities and ways to clean by using regular household products. You can use vinegar and baking soda to clean pretty much anything when mixed with warm water. They make excellent scrubbers, they are non-toxic and bio-friendly.

Central air conditioning circulates the same air over and over, so sometimes the air inside your home can be more toxic and full of pollutants than the air outside. Open your windows once in a while to let some fresh air in so the air the system circulates will be renewed once in a while.

The same thing can be done with carpets, just sprinkle some of it on the carpet, let it stay there for a few hours and simply vacuum everything. This will rid your carpet of the odors with the added bonus of not using any toxic products.

 Use natural air fresheners

You can easily do this by burning herbs like cinnamon or cloves for example or by using aromatic candles. Another way you can put some nice aroma in your home is by baking cookies, bread or by simply having flowers in your home. Growing those will improve the air quality and you’ll have a much easier time keeping your home smelling nice and fresh.
