How many ‘green’ cleaning chemicals do you use?
Posted April 24, 2010 – 4:45 pm in: Cape Cod Green Cleaning NewsIn comparison to the number of traditional chemicals.
I now use green alternatives for laundry and dish washing, since they are a lot better for health and the environment.
Johnnie B: I use green chemicals now because of a lecture I had last year with Dr Peter Dingle (look him up on Google). The traditional sprays like Spray N Wipe and other cleaning chemicals have a lot worse bacteria than that which you are cleaning. As well, they have chemicals which damages your respiratory system. Just look at the warnings on the back – no safe chemicals require that
Roseann B: Totally agree with the vinegar – that stuff performs miracles and doesn’t damage anything as much!

I use vinegar for all kinds of household chores. It’s great on the windows, and for taking spots off the carpet on the floor.
We were also trying to show support for a new eco-friendly store in the neighborhood, so bought some toilet-bowl cleaner. I’m much less worried about the cats loitering about while I do this chore now.
We use our automatic dishwasher weekly (we recycle gray-water for laundry, car washing and outside watering) to put a good, sanitary clean on the dishes, so we found a new bio-friendly powder for that. Really though, white vinegar is the king in our household; weed killer, counter and glass cleaner, mix with baking soda for drain, tub and sink cleaner…and mixed with lavender to spray and wipe tile after a shower to keep down mold. Peroxide in “white” wash with bio-friendly powder to whiten clothes.
i like friends anthony bailey and i like you
Wrong !! all the chemicals can be used safely ,just follow the instructions. The green chemicals is just a scam to make more money and U bought that.
All of my cleaning products are green. There are many non-toxic cleaning products out there now. I use biodegradable cleaning products and all natural cleaning products. Except the toilet bowl cleaner, I can’t find a good natural one for that.
All our cleaning products are green, but our laundry and dish washer soap.
