Step 51Green Cleaning
From http://www.care2.com/greenliving/make-your-own-non-toxic-cleaning-kit.html, and thanks from Slickdeals.net user Bostonthrifty for supplying me with this site, and several other tips.
Most modern synthetic cleaning products are based on age-old formulas using natural ingredients that were passed down through the generations because the chemistry was right. Going back to the original naturally derived ingredients is a way to make cleaning products that work, don't pollute and save you money. Most are found in your kitchen cupboards. Mix and match with well-chosen and environmentally friendly green cleaning products found in health food stores, and you can easily and simply transform your home into a non-toxic and healthy haven.
Non-toxic cleaning can give you a deep feeling of gratification in knowing that your family's health is protected, and that your home is a place for your bodies to rest and recuperate rather than promote harm.
SIMPLE SOLUTION: Making your own nontoxic cleaning kit will take you no time at all with these simple, straightforward directions, and with this kit you will be supplied with enough cleaning product for months of cleaning.
As an added bonus, ounce for ounce homemade cleaning formulas cost about one-tenth the price of their commercial counterpartââ‰â¬Âand that includes costly, but worthwhile essential oils, and concentrated, all-purpose detergents for homemade recipes.

"Non-toxic cleaning can give you a deep feeling of gratification". That's what all these tips are about- feeling good. Never mind that 75% are misleading or entirely untrue. Feeling good- replacing hard work and common sense since Al Gore decended from heaven to save humankind.

Especially since some families have multiple cleaners for everything. Carpet stain remover, window cleaner, clorox, 409, etc...
