My eco-friendly household chemicals - I share my personal experience again. I'll tell you what products I use to clean the house and what I found this summer =)

I thought about safe household chemicals for a long time, but switched to safe means gradually, not one day.

I bought various products and compared: I liked some immediately and stayed for a long time, others did not repeat. The easiest thing for me was the transition to dishwashing detergents, the most difficult thing was to decide on the laundry.

Even now I cannot boast that everything suits me - I have much to strive for!

But household chemicals at home have become much less, this is a fact. Today I will share my findings and environmentally friendly cleaning products.

And at the end I will tell you about the principles of cleaning that are easy to do now =)

Eco-friendly household chemicals on iHerb

I have been buying household chemicals on iHerb for many years in a row, preferring Ecover and Attitude.

Belgian Ecover one of the most famous manufacturers of cleaning products. Most do not contain toxic components, but you need to look at the compositions. For allergy sufferers, there is a Zero fragrance-free line.

I love Ecover, Liquid Dish Soap with lime: concentrated, lathers well and cleans up all dirt, but it's better to wash the dishes with gloves. The composition contains sodium lauryl sulfate.

Stain Remover Ecover, Stain Remover removes fresh stains on colored and white fabrics, refreshes shirt collars and cuffs and is chlorine free. The bottle has a convenient brush, I apply it on the stain and after 5 minutes I send the thing to the wash.

I regularly buy concentrated dishwashing detergent Dishwashing Liquid, Pink Grapefruit- it has a delicate dense foam, a pleasant aroma and soft plant glucosides in its composition.

The brand also has excellent working products for the bathroom: Bathroom, Citrus Zest (removes soapstone, cleans tiles) and Daily Shower Cleaner (prevents soapstone formation on glass).

Ecover in Russia

Ecover assortment iHerb cut a lot in the last year and I started buying many heavy products here more often. The prices are roughly the same, if we recalculate in terms of volume - the packages are different.

I like cream cleaning agent, I use it for plumbing and in the kitchen for various surfaces.

Liked washing liquid: This is a versatile everyday remedy for white and colored fabrics. Washes at a low temperature (I do not wash above 30 degrees), does not contain enzymes and bleaches, rinses well and does not damage the fabric.

In addition to it I take eco-friendly fabric softener, I use 1 cap per wash.

Where can I buy: FCX705 for all

Eco-friendly household chemicals BioMio

In the summer, I tried new brands of environmentally friendly household chemicals that are sold in Russia.

From Russian brands I met with BioMio, the brand is owned by Splat and produces cleaning products. Environmental friendliness is confirmed by the Russian certificate "Leaf of Life" on the packaging.

I was offered to take the dish gel for testing, and I bought the detergents myself in order to get a general impression of the brand.

I liked the dishwashing gel and proved to be economical! I have been using it all summer, but I also have a dishwasher and I do not wash the dishes by hand every day. This is worth considering.

I have a mint essential oil dish gel. I have not tried other flavors (there is also mandarin, lavender, verbena), but this is the most beautiful and sweet mint. The scent is fresh, natural and bright, it improves the mood.

The product foams well and washes away dirt perfectly. But there is a minus - the full composition of the surfactants included in the composition is not indicated on the label. You can use the gel for baby dishes and for peeling fruits and vegetables. I tried it - the gel could not remove the wax film from the fruit.

Where can I buy: for 4fresh + 5% discount by code FCX705 for all

BioMio washing powder did not impress at all.

It is an ordinary and even mediocre odorless washing powder, the laundry lacks the feeling of cleanliness and freshness.

Only this can explain that an open box of powder has been worth for several months and I do not use it. Now I will finish the post and finish it as soon as possible to start trying other means.

I liked the BioMio liquid detergent for washing delicate fabrics more!

I haven't tried it for wool and silk, I use for everyday washing ordinary clothes made of colored fabrics. The manufacturer recommends it for children's clothing and people with sensitive skin.

The product is odorless and suitable for every day. The laundry is soft and pleasant after washing. It does not remove dirt, I add Sodasan bleach to it, I will talk about it later.

Sodasan Oxygen Treatment

Sodasan is a German brand of eco-friendly detergents. In the summer I bought oxygen bleach, recently the bottle ran out and I feel like I miss it, I have to order again.

The bleach is designed for white and colored fabrics, gently removes dirt without damaging the fibers. Retains the brightness of colored items and prevents aging of white things.

In fact, this is not a bleach, but a means to preserve brightness and remove impurities. According to the instructions, it is designed for 14 wash cycles. It took me much longer, I added 1 tablespoon of powder per wash.

Where can I buy: for 4fresh + 5% discount by code FCX705 for all

Eco-friendly cleaning

And I share my principles of sustainable home cleaning. Many are familiar to you, perhaps something will be new =)

1. Do not use synthetic aerosols and candles

These fresheners smell good, but they fill the air with toxic chemicals that we breathe in. Conventional candles often have a lead + wick made of paraffin - when burned, it forms toxic benzene and toluene.

The best choice: organic beeswax or soy candles, essential oils, aroma diffusers. These candles are from the Aroma Naturals (iHerb) brand, they are all made from soy wax.

2. Do not use antibacterial cleaning agents

Triclosan kills all living bacteria and promotes the emergence of resistant super bacteria, harmful to health and harm to the environment. Use natural antibacterial agents instead of triclosan and chlorine.

The best choice: grapefruit seed extract, tea tree, lemon, eucalyptus essential oils.

3. Get rid of excess

Superfluous things tend to accumulate and quickly turn into rubble, so I periodically “litter”. Each time the separation process becomes easier, and only really favorite things remain at home!

The best choice: if you don't know where to start, just take apart one cupboard in the kitchen and leave your favorite tools. You will be surprised how inspiring it is! =)

4. Dispose of waste wisely

It is easy to throw the battery in the trash, but just one battery contaminates about 20 square meters with heavy metals (mercury, lead). m. of land. There are special containers for collection, from which the batteries are sent for recycling.

The best choice: In Moscow, there are containers for collecting batteries in Ikea, Media Markt, and some VkusVill stores.

5. Choose environmentally friendly cleaning products

Modern environmentally friendly household chemicals are effective, do not contain substances toxic to health and poisonous odors. It is also environmentally friendly and made from renewable raw materials.

The best choice: products with recognized eco-certificates (Ecocert, EcoLogo, Ecolabel, Leaf of Life).

Such environmentally friendly household chemicals are in use. Share your experience of switching to safe cleaning products =)

It is impossible to maintain cleanliness in the house without the use of detergents. Bacteria can multiply in any corner of your apartment, and you can't get rid of them with a damp cloth. In order not to aggravate the situation with diseases, to avoid allergic reactions, you need to choose the right cleaning products. Their regular use will help not only keep order, but also avoid health problems.

What are home cleaning products for?

Today manufacturers offer a number of multifunctional powders, gels for various purposes: for washing, washing dishes, floors, household appliances, glass, plumbing, etc. All of them are necessary and important if you want your home to be always clean. To save money, many people prefer to buy universal products that are suitable for cleaning both the gas stove and the sink. In any case, it is difficult to get rid of all germs and dirt without chemicals.

How to choose effective cleaning products

The assortment is huge, so before entering a store and buying a cleaning agent, pay attention to an important selection criterion - health safety. Consider how much and what kind of chemistry is contained in a particular preparation. Products differ in purpose, type, application methods and some characteristics. Most have the same composition, but new production technologies appear.

By composition, all cleaning products are divided into:

• Abrasive. Here, the main components are fine-grained substances - chalk, pumice, quartz sand. By origin, they can be artificial and natural. They are used when you need to get rid of difficult stains, hard deposits. Large particles can scratch the surface over time. Abrasive products are produced in the form of powders.
• Non-abrasive products. It comes in the form of powder and liquid. The main components are soda, acids, organic solvents, phosphates. Such products are better suited to ceramics, glass, because will not scratch the surface.
• Alkaline preparations easily deal with stubborn dirt. Homemade home remedies such as laundry soap or baking soda, which are free of toxic ingredients, are suitable here. They are completely safe, capable of cleaning any surface and disinfecting the room. Frequent use of disinfectant liquids is not recommended: this leads to the fact that bacteria become pathogenic - that is, more dangerous.
• Acidic preparations cope well with rust, limescale. An excellent tool for cleaning the house with your own hands does not even need to be cooked - take table vinegar or citric acid. If you add essential oil and water to vinegar, you get a harmless air freshener that can be used as a tobacco control.

By appointment, drugs are for:

• Bathroom, toilet, pipes. Many people use Mole liquid to clean drainpipes - it is inexpensive, and a liter bottle lasts for a long time. Toilet Comet keeps it clean and creates a protective layer against bacteria. There are special tablets for the tank. The Sanfor cleaning disinfectant is suitable for disinfecting the bathroom.
• House cleaning. This may include Mr Proper floor cleaning fluids, Pronto anti-dust, Fairy dishware, and Meliseptol Foam disinfectant.
• Surface cleaning. There are different preparations depending on the material. For example, for glass ceramics - Cillit Bang spray. To clean the stone, you can use Karcher or special impregnations.
• For glass, windows, mirrors - Frosch, Sanita, HG and others.
• Kitchen appliances. Suitable for kitchens are Flat Cleaner, Sanita Spray, Ecozone and many others.
• Furniture. For example, Grass Torus is designed for polishing hard furniture. It will hide all damage, add shine. You can apply it with microfiber. For upholstered furniture, spray Unicum will help.
• Floor coverings. For laminate you can use inexpensive HG, for parquet - Bagi, for linoleum - DEC.
• Electronics. For example, Ritmix is ​​suitable for TVs or computers. Compressed air cans are popular.
• Tile. Grout spray will help you to remove limescale, odor, dirt.
• Carpets. Vanish is popular for cleaning carpets in the form of sprays, shampoos, and powders.

According to the form of release, washing products are divided into:

• gels - Comet, Grass, Sanfor;
• emulsions - Luxus, Cinderella, Kiilto Visionoil;
• pastes - Sanros, Dr. Beckmann;
• sprays - Universal Spray, TechPoint, Ecozone;
• liquids - Aqualon, Mr.Proper;
• granules - Pothan, Tornado, Luxus Professional;
• powders - "Pemolux", "Chistin", Comet;
• tablets - Typhoon, Jura.

In order for the detergent to be harmless to health, you need to know whether it is organic or not:

• Organic products contain essential oils, lactic acid, other acids (for example, citric) and natural substances: sugar, vegetable soap and others. Harmful preservatives and flavors have been replaced with sodium salt and natural essential oils. Choose organic foods if you have allergies or have a child in your family - they are harmless. An example is Klar Hypoallergenic Dishwashing Gel, a cleaning liquid based on Sodasan organic vinegar.
• Surfactants (surfactants). Among inorganic agents are chlorine, hydrochloric acid, ammonia, which have a pungent odor, are toxic and act as irritants. Additives in the form of benzene or formaldehyde are harmful to human health and pollute the environment. They can provoke skin irritation, shortness of breath, and vomiting. Frequent use of inorganic products has a devastating effect on human health. Such drugs are chosen because surfactants are able to cope with any kind of pollution and do it much faster than organic substances.

Our own dwelling, which should be our fortress, is actually a dangerous place for humans. Insects, dust mites, microbial sponges, spoiling food - all this is fraught with a whole bunch of medical problems, from allergies and asthma to gastrointestinal infections. According to experts, it is easier to get sick at home than anywhere else.

Worse, struggling to keep your home clean can be unsafe. Indeed, with the amount of chemistry that a person uses to clean the house, you can kill not only bacteria and insects, but also yourself. However, there is a way out. Here are some tips on how to clean your apartment safely.

Effective cleaning should be done according to a plan. In other words, you don’t have to walk up and down the room, wiping from one corner to another. Move from top to bottom and, say, from left to right. Start from the ceiling and go down to the baseboards, consistently cleaning walls, windows, furniture from dirt and dust. Take care of carpets and flooring last.

Cleanse what you never thought was dirty

For example, your mattress is a true incubator for allergy-causing dust mites. If you wash its cover in hot water once a month, while wiping the surface of the mattress with it, it will become much easier to breathe in the morning. The same applies to handsets, which are home to a variety of disease-causing bacteria and viruses. Bins, shower curtains, dishwasher, air conditioner filters fall into this category.

Don't throw away your socks

These are wool socks as well as sweaters and blankets. If you rub the wool over any surface, then it accumulates static electricity, and then attracts dust. As a result, by wiping the furniture with an old woolen thing, you will make it shine without additional polishing.

Brush silver with toothpaste

After cleaning, simply rinse the silver with warm water and buff with a soft cloth. Clean large dishes with a paste made by adding a little water to baking soda.

Clean Sewers With Non-Toxic Products

Instead of toxic special products, pour a pot of boiling water into the drain every day or pour a handful of baking soda there and rinse it off with 100 ml of vinegar. Many brands of enzymatic detergents sold at pet stores are effective, especially in preventing blockages. These means wash away the traces of dog and cat "surprises" from carpets.

Clean windows with home remedies

The best window cleaner is water with the addition of ordinary ammonia (1 part of ammonia is diluted in 10 parts of water). After washing, the window should be wiped with newsprint or a rag.

If you don't even have ammonia on hand, raw potatoes can perform the function of a cleaning agent. To do this, wipe the windows with potato halves, and then wipe with a dry cloth.

Flush the toilet with vinegar

To clean the toilet without risking your health, use regular vinegar. Pour some vinegar on the bottom of the toilet, then spray the sides and sprinkle them with baking soda. Wait 15 minutes, then wipe off the dirt with a brush, sprinkling with the same baking soda. Pour a glass of vinegar down the toilet once a month at night. It dissolves salt deposits, preventing the appearance of dark rings left on the enamel by hard water.

Clean the floor with simple means
