Don't Miss These Little Cleaning Tips that Make a Big Difference in Your Family's Health!

Is it hard to keep your house clean? Different factors like pets, children and busy lives can make house cleaning a challenge. But a dirty house is a breeding ground for germs and irritants. So let's take a preemptive strike and stay one step ahead of the game. Enjoy the info below and get the family on board. 

Little Cleaning Tips that Make a Big Difference in Your Family's Health!

Non-Toxic Products
Educate yourself and your family about the dangerous and safe ingredients. This is a great point to start with, because the toxic chemicals we clean with are such irritants to our health. They create allergies and aggravate them, compromise our sinus and respiratory system, while weakening our immune systems all together. (Ever notice the rise in how common it is for children to be congested?) As the safety and environmental impacts of conventional cleaning products become more thoroughly understood, more and more brands of healthy, green, and effective cleaning products have started hitting the market and competing for that coveted place of honor under your sink. Many of these products are non-toxic, biodegradable, and made from renewable resources (not petroleum).  Bayes knows the importance of this, which is why we do what we do!

Cleaner the Air in Your Home

It's surprisingly common to find that the air inside the home is more toxic than the air outside. It's because the toxins and substances that insulate homes (which is a good thing) are strong and being off gassed on a general basis. Keeping windows open as often as possible allows fresh air in and keeps toxins flowing out. This is especially important when cleaning your home.

Clean the Air Naturally
Skip the store-bought air fresheners and instead try boiling cinnamon, cloves, or any other herbs you have a fondness for. Fresh chocolate chip cookies also have been known to create a friendly aroma. Also, plants may not make your house smell different but are good for filtering interior air--pretty much any broad green leaf plant will do. Peace Lilies are a favorite choice.

Keep the Shoes Off
Imagine what's on your shoes at the end of the day. Everything from car oil, antifreeze, animal waste, pollution, pollen, (and who knows what else) into the house is especially common for kids and other critters that spend time on floor level. Keep the sidewalk out of your home with a good doormat and a shoeless house policy. Many green buildings now include entryway track-off systems as a means of maintaining a healthy interior environment. Less dirt also means less sweeping, mopping, and vacuuming, which means less work, water, energy, and fewer chemicals. You can do it!
