Most cleaning products could kill a horse, so why do you expose your family to them when nontoxic, natural cleaners are just as effective? This comprehensive guide proves natural cleaning disinfects, polishes, and freshens just as well as commercial chemicals but spares you from living with deadly toxins.

SIMPLE STEPS TO A NATURALLY CLEAN HOME Toxic chemicals are found in almost all commercial cleaners--the very products you buy to make your home hygenic and healthy. Homemade Cleaners offers a better solution. Its tips, tricks and formulas guarantee to make your home sparkling and germ-free. Homemade Cleaners features over 150 recipes that are: * Toxin-Free * Simple and Affordable * Highly Effective * Environmentally Sound * Kid and Baby Friendly Using ingredients like vinegar, baking soda, and even vodka, the authors tackle the nitty-gritty of everything from countertop cleaners to air-purifying plants so you avoid using commercial products that can cause side effects including skin irritation, asthma and central nervous system damage.
