Effective eco-friendly cleaning is part of maintaining your pet's health as well as your own. There are essential tips and tricks for effective eco-friendly cleaning.
Phasing Out Harsh Cleaning Products
Most of us don't realize that the cleaning products we frequently use are too harsh. First, research eco-friendly products and use them to replace the ones you are currently using. Some products include: baking soda, lavender, thyme, lemon, lime, vinegar, salt and other essential oils.
Eco-Friendly Upholstery & Carpet Cleaning
In order to give our furniture and carpets a deep clean, we need pressurized hot water extraction aka steam cleaning. Most professional steam cleaning services offer eco-friendly carpet cleaning with natural cleaning products.
Natural Deodorizer
Carpets, mattresses and furniture benefit from natural deodorizing methods. You can buy cost-effective and pet safe deodorizer in stores. These are usually baking soda based come in a nice variety of scents. You can also make your own with lavender oil and baking soda.
Natural Disinfectant Wipes
You can get store bought eco-friendly disinfectant wipes with natural ingredients. You can also buy your own basic ingredients. You can get a tea tree oil spray and apply it to paper towels or spray areas that need to be disinfected. Tea tree oil is also used as an anti-fungal remedy.
Lemon Descaling Solutions
Metal and glass dishes can acquire calcium deposits or scaling. Pet dishes are particularly prone to acquire scaling and other slime deposits. Soak the dish interior with lemon juice and let it sit for at least 30 minutes. Rinse off the dish afterward and wipe with paper towels.
