Whether you’re composting, taking shorter showers or shopping with reusable bags, you have taken strides to make your household eco-friendlier. As it turns out, though, there’s always more to be done. For instance, the cleaning formulas you buy from the store often come packed with chemicals. Once you use these products in your home, you release said chemicals into the air around you and your family.
Luckily, you have options when it comes to household cleaners. You can whip up your own from common nontoxic materials. You’ll feel better about cleaning because no longer will it put anyone or the Earth at risk of chemical exposure.
Here’s your guide to household cleaners, eco-friendly style.
