Go into a home or office that has just received a fresh deep cleaning, and the same problems hit you in the face.
The first thing that your senses detect is an overpowering chemical smell. We have all been conditioned to associate the scent of bleach, carpet cleaners, and deodorizers with the idea of clean.
In reality, those cleaners spread toxic and dangerous chemicals around the spaces in which you live and work, as well as the overall environment.
Green cleaning emphasizes using all-natural materials and techniques as often as possible. We guarantee that when you choose green cleaning services that you will enjoy the difference.
Below, we have shared a few reasons why you should choose green to clean.
Different people have different ideas about what constitutes green cleaning. For many, it means maximizing the use of green cleaning solutions, such as vinegar, citric acids, and baking soda to remove dirt, grease, grime, and odors.
Some chemical-based cleaners also are designed for minimal environmental impact.
The US Environmental Protection Agency produces guidelines and suggestions on which cleaners are safe for use, not only for cleaning but also for the overall environment.
Read the active ingredients in any leading household cleaning products. We will understand if you need a chemistry degree to get through the list. You will also see words like “toxic” and “dangerous,” or “keep away from pets and children.”
All-natural substances, such as vinegar, pose no threats to curious children or animals. They also do not leave chemicals in the air or on surfaces.
That smell in the air after using dangerous chemicals is less of an indicator of a clean house and more a sign that you are ingesting dangerous chemical residues into your lungs.
Using non-toxic alternatives does not leave chemical odors, just all-natural substances and a fresh, clean smell.
All-natural cleaners do not only leave your home or business environment less polluted, but they also make the environment as a whole less polluted as well. When you use chemical-laden products, those dangerous substances either rinse down a drain or remain on surfaces and in the air.
Reduce your personal contribution to pollution by using green cleaners or hiring out professionals who specialize in environmentally safer processes.
Another benefit of using all-natural products lies in having a full understanding of what substances are in the cleaner. Instead of “potassium hydroxide,” you may see “vinegar.”
Knowing what is in the products used for cleaning, especially around pets and children, provides peace of mind.
The recent prevalence of antibacterial products in cleaning and personal hygiene has led to serious health concerns. Experts blame their overuse for the rise of childhood allergies, the emergence of medicine resistant bacteria, and more.
Our bodies need an environment with bacteria in it. Antibacterials reduce our immune system’s ability to fight disease while also killing “good” bacteria that our bodies need.
Green cleaning products remove what you don’t want in your home or workspace while leaving what we need for better health and disease resistance.
