Green Cleaning
Ideas for Your Home
Copyright © 2008 Ainsley Laing
When my husband, Dave, and I first started housekeeping
together (we are still newlyweds...), he used to shake his head
and occasionally comment on my refusal to use artificial
chemical cleaning products in the home. Yes, it is a bit
unconventional to say the least! But even he will tell you that
he likes that our house is free of toxic chemicals.
Only ten years ago, I too believed the only way to really clean
was with smelly household cleaners. Here's the story:
Have you heard of the hygiene hypothesis? First proposed in
England in 1989 by David Strachan, it was a possible
explanation of why kids raised in larger families have a lower
incidence of allergies. It has been studied extensively and has
now been expanded.

Carpet Cleaning Tips
Carpet stains are notorious for their permanence and
the fact that somehow or something or other will always end up
on your brand new carpet, which is probably in that nice shade
of eggshell white. This can at the best of times be annoying
and at the worst of times, depressing.
It’s never easy to get that wad of chewed up gum out, or
that nice big splotch of red wine, or even those blood stains
from when you rushed out of the kitchen bleeding because you
cut your finger trying to cook!
Carpet stains are the bane of many a person’s existence and
this is not due only to spilled blood or wine stains. If you
manage to catch the spill in time there’s a good chance that
all you will need is a little soap and water, along with a
heaped teaspoon of elbow grease. Those carpet stains will
disappear (almost) like magic.

Household Hints 101
There’s nothing more
gratifying to a person who has spent hours on cleaning their
house than to get praise for the great job they’ve done in
keeping it clean-looking and beautiful. For these people,
keeping their house in great shape is one of their burning
desires. Finding handy household hints and putting them into
action to get their house looking just-so, is what they
need.
Household hints can be a boon to any serious homemaker, and
you will find that the more serious the homemaker, the more
likely it will be that they have their own particular household
hints and tricks which they put to good use keeping their house
in shape.
But what are household hints? Are they about what you can do
to keep your house neat as a pin, or do they tell you what to
do in the case of accidental water seepage from your drains?
Maybe they tell you how to deal with stains and the removal
thereof, or maybe they tell you how best to decorate a room to
catch the natural light.
