What if we switched to green cleaning?

Traditional household products contain toxic substances that are harmful to the environment. To minimize the environmental impact of your cleaning, you can follow these 3 tips:

At a minimum, you can use a single multi-purpose cleaning product that cleans all types of surfaces with an effectiveness often identical to a specialized product. Buying a single product avoids discarding partially used bottles.

- By purchasing green products, you minimize the quantity and harmfulness of toxic products contained in your detergent. The European eco-label will help guide your choice towards these green products. Several brands offer a complete range of environmentally friendly detergents with the European eco-label.

- Making your own detergent from natural products is certainly a bit constraining, but it is not only an ecological gesture, but also an economical one. Many natural or natural-based products can be used as detergents:
- Green clay washes and deodorizes laundry.
- Baking soda cleans ovens (sprinkle in the oven, let sit overnight, then rinse) and removes bad odors from the refrigerator.
- Fuller's earth removes stains from carpets and fabrics.
- Meudon white cleans tiles.
- Linseed oil protects wood and metal from moisture.
- Fine salt revives and cleans carpet colors (sprinkle, brush, let sit for 15 minutes, then vacuum).
- Very hot vinegar descales.
- White vinegar cleans windows and makes tiles shine.
- Black soap to clean floors.
- Lemon juice descales faucets and can give sponges a new lease on life.

You will find many detailed tips in Raffa's "The Big Clean" guide.
