Why are there so many different cleaning products?
Cynically I think it is to make money out of us by convincing us that we need a different product for each thing we clean. They are nearly all in plastic bottles. What to do? I have been researching making my own cleaning products and it seems that vinegar and bicarbonate of soda (baking soda) feature heavily here. Glad to report that they are available cheaply in either glass or paper packaging! I am going to try them out and report back. I have some recipes, I will recycle my sprayer bottles, and I might put teatree oil in to mask the smell of vinegar and make the spray more antibacterial. I don't think the chemicals in commercial cleaners are good for us so this could be a win win situation!!!
