Water and salt mixed like sand and rub into cutting boards let sit and rinse w/ cold water. Disinfects raw meat from board
….
1 cup of ammonia into washer with reg laundry soap(not a bleach one)and it removes set in dirt you thought was gone…
look at the water and see it dirty..
YES Simple Green it goes from a de-greaser(full strength) to a multi cleaner(7px1p)
They have worked on its smell some people did not like the old smell so now it’s a bit like Windex ….
Full strength or just about it cleans the out side plastic furniture fabulous. And you don’t have to worry about the grass or other plants.
If you live on a busy truck traveled street, than you will like the 4-1 mix for windows might have to wash 2 times then finish with vinegar and use new paper for the final non streak wash. This work and great if you are a compulsive window washer…
Water and lemon juice to boil on High in microwave. ok if it goes over you add some Baking Soda and scrub when all is wet and most and loosened up.
Again B S (Baking Soda) and a pipe cleaner for the straws on the reusable to go drink cups.
Oh this is not cleaning like you might think. But well I just started it and it does work. To “clean the weeds between the bricks or in driveway. Ect. I heat up vinegar put in spray bottle and spray a way. It goes to the roots and dries them up so kills the weed. It might be a day or two to see them dead but if you pull them up you will see the white roots and know it worked:)

I learned about this pair when I researched drain cleaners.
Baking Soda and Vinegar...there's also a web site that throws lemon juice into the mix. They're broad spectrum cleaners... organic, non-toxic and best of all, cheap!

I got these from babyfit.com
Mildew remover: Lemon Juice or white vinegar and salt.
Toilet Cleaner: Sprinkle toilet brush with baking soda and occasionally disinfect by scrubbing with Borax instead.
Glass cleaner: 2 tablespoon white vinegar to one quart water.
Floor or Furniture Polish: 1 tablespoon lemon juice to two parts olive oil.

baking soda
It removes odors from upholstered furniture, carpets, and the frig.
Mixed with a slight amount of water, it becomes a mild abrasive that can remove marks from dishes, sinks, and tub.
1/2 cup baking soda added to laundry soap will remove stains in clothing.
Plus, it has all sorts of uses not necessarily related to cleaning chores.

Simple Green, you can buy it at home depot. It's enviro. friendly, non-toxic, and really works. I've used it in a few resturants I've worked in, not because I'm an activist, but because it works and it's not that expensive.
