Nontoxic Cleaning
Some have asked us about cleaning. If you know me at all, you know that cleanliness is not a strong point of mine. But I have improved a bit because keeping messes contained reduces critter stress. That being said, we use a cleaning solution made of vinegar and essential oils. Smells good and clean with no noxious chemicals. For mild abrasive, add baking soda. Clean, healthy, safe and cheap!
I like the lavender and vinegar also and it works great. Another of my favorite is to use tangerine oil with vinegar and it really cleans well, smells great, and polishes at the same time.
