Non-Toxic Green Cleaning.

And frugal, too.

Vinegar
The most frugal and versatile non-toxic cleaner. It is a safe and natural disinfectant that, mixed in a 1/1 ratio with water, can clean everything from floor to ceiling in pretty much any room, including mirrors and window. You should not, however use vinegar on porous natural surfaces like marble or granite.

It’s great at cutting grease. Iit’s especially good at cleaning up bathroom stainless steel fixtures and making them shiny. The vinegar and water mixture is also works as a stain remover on carpets and rugs!

Vinegar is also a great replacement for fabric softener in you laundry.

Baking Soda
Use Baking Soda to clean toilets, Just a few shakes around the bowl and a good scrubbing with a toilet brush

Hydrogen Peroxide
Great for cleaning areas that you want to be disinfected.

The mix of hydrogen peroxide and water also is great at removing certain types of stains on clothing. Dark stains, like blood, blueberries or other berries, or juice, come out easily when you spray them before putting the clothing in the wash.
