More About This Book

Overview

It's time to "green" that cleaning routine! Millions of Americans are replacing harsh chemical cleansers with eco-friendly alternatives. Unfortunately, most commercial green cleaners are expensive, and they often come with dubious environmental claims.

Effective, nontoxic alternatives can be mixed up easily from kitchen staples — baking soda, vinegar, lemon juice, herbs, and borax — plus a handful of easy-to-find essential oils. In the second edition of The Naturally Clean Home, Karyn Siegel-Maier offers 150 all-natural recipes for cleaning every area of the home — from bathrooms to bedding, and from carpets to cabinetry.

Siegel-Maier, a writer specializing in complementary therapies whose work is featured in such publications as Mother Earth News and Natural Living Today, presents quick recipes for cleansers that are nontoxic, biodegradable, and freshsmelling. Formulas are so simple that even a novice can make them, yet they are as effective as the commercial options. Best of all, these recipes are much less expensive than commercial cleaners; most can be made for mere pennies per use.

With the second edition of this popular book comes a host of hard-working new recipes, including Rosemary-Geranium Floor Wipes for electrostatic floor mops, Thyme to Make Your Own Carpet Steamer, Weekend Warrior Wicker Wash, Telephone Dirty Talk Tamer, Clear the Air Room Spritzer, and Lavender Lift Automatic Dishwasher Soap.

Siegel-Maier also offers recipes for outdoor spaces — like Shoo-Fly Shake to keep flies away from your backyard barbecue — and covers areas less commonly considered in the cleaning routine: garden, houseplants, computer, even the septic tank!

Whether scrubbing or scouring, degreasing or dusting, The Naturally Clean Home makes it fun to mix up chemical-free products that are easy on home and planet!

    Highly Recommend!

    I bought this book after taking a class about natural cleaning products. I love it! Much better for your health and the environment. I also bought a book for my mother and another for my sister-in-law. I highly recommend this book.

    Great book

    I original borrowed this book from the library, but decided I wanted to have a copy for myself, so I ordered it. I find myself opening it often to get great natural ways to clean my house with stuff I already have in the house.

    Love this Book

    This book is great if you are looking for an easy, economical, healthy alternative to chemical cleaners. I was unsure that my 'homemade' cleaners would work as well as store bought, but THEY DO! Now my home is super clean, healthy and chemical free. It's amazing!!!

    Very Eye-Opening!

    Detergents, cleansers, polishes, waxes, disinfectants, etc. that we buy from stores are loaded with unnecessary chemicals. It makes me wonder if all those companies aren't using our homes as chemical disposals! I think that every home should contain this book! It explains how we can make our own housecleaning products, and make them healthier and more cheaply! I love this book. It's worth every penny.

    I am going to buy this book

    I got this book from the library and read it from cover to cover. It not only has great recipes, but hints and tips also. I have tried 3 of the recipes so far, and all have worked wonderfully. It is such a relief to be free from the toxic odors of typical cleansers. These recipes work great, and best of all, they smell great too. I am going to try a few more recipes from the book, but I am already sure that I am going to buy this book!!!
