When I was pregnant with Caitlyn I became very mindful of the chemicals I was using to clean. I didn't want to smell them anymore. I didn't want anything to negatively impact the development of my baby. I started searching for natural products. Biokleen has become my favorite brand. I particularly love Bac-Out. It does an amazing job getting stains and odors out of carpets. It is my new best friend since I am earnestly potty training Caitlyn. Can't wait for all hard floors someday, though...
Now I know how to clean a shower. I'm a PCC grad, after all. One of my very first college lessons was in cleaning the shower to pass Saturday room inspection (thanks, Becca!). I only ever failed once - White Glove. Spring semester. Senior year. Sigh. The source - residue from soap scum and remnants of shower cleaner. That was the reason everyone failed, unless someone simply didn't do it.
Now I have my own home and I have that same soap scum issue. My Biokleen bathroom cleaner just wasn't cutting it for the shower. I started thinking back to the alternative cleaners we used in college. Liquid laundry detergent was the first to come to mind. Perfect! I had a bottle of Ecos that I quit using because it just wasn't doing a good enough job.
I put it in a squirt bottle, took my scrub brush, and went to town. This is the second week I've been using it. I am in love. It stays wet providing plenty of time to scrub and rinses clean. IT WORKS. No soap scum. No residue. Just a sparkling shower. Ahhh.
What are your natural cleaning tips?
