"OM" AT HOME

Spring cleaning is done, the winter debris has gone, and my home is OM. I found healthier cleaners this year that are great performers and environmentally compassionate. Unclutch that toxic Febreeze, Pinesol, and Windex - when you try these impressive products you'll never miss them.

Hope’s Perfect Glass cleaner has a label that doesn’t lie. (Windex does). There are NO STREAKS! And even better, it’s ammonia-free emitting only a faint lemony scent. My windows and mirrors have a spectacular sheen. I found this product at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Buy two at a time.
Biokleen has a complete line of home cleaning supplies, including laundry detergent, but my favorite is Bac-Out Stain & Odor Eliminator. It is natural, non-toxic, biodegradable, with a natural scent from lime. Biokleen breaks down stains, dirt, and odors with live enzymes. After soaking sheer curtains embedded by resistant road grime they came out clean and bright. With a damped cloth I wiped Bac-Out across my white micro-suede sofa. Now 8 years old, it looks brand new and smells awesome. The enzymes in Biokleen products eliminate troublesome odors and stains gently. It’s sold in gallons.

My floors must think it’s Christmas. The best gift you could give your carpets and hardwood floors is a Dyson Vac and Bona Floor Cleaner. There are Dyson vacuums and there are the others. If you have allergies this system will make a big difference. I bought the canister style and I love its strength and smart design. You can go to Sears for a demonstration. They are worth their price in the long run.

Bona Floor Cleaner is non-toxic to the environment and your home.
Floors are rejuvenated, polished, and fresh. It is GREENGUARD certified for indoor air quality. The company researches their product more than any other, and considers health, beauty, performance, and environmental responsibility. Developed in Sweden in 1919, Bona Floor Cleaner is available online or at Bed, Bath, and Beyond. http://www.mybonahome.com/BonaQuality.aspx
