We've gotten rid of nearly all cleaning chemicals in the house. We still use toilet cleaner, and eco versions of dishwashing powder, dishwashing liquid and washing powder (I have a sample bag of soap nuts I want to try out too). Otherwise we just use vinegar and eucalyptus oil in a spray bottle to clean surfaces, etc. We also bait flies instead of spraying them. Anyone got tips or tricks to share?

I use eco-friendly dishwashing liquid to clean my bathroom. I'm very fond of bicarb and vinegar and plain old elbow grease too with a steel wool thingy.

Pretty much bicarb and vinegar for most things. We use ecostore laundry power.

Bicarb, Vinegar, Ecover toilet cleaner (lasts aaaaaages), some orange power surface spray stuff, homemade laundry liquid (soap, washing soda, essential oils, water = goop), Ecover dishwashing liquid at the moment, but that laundry liquid made my dishes soooo shiny when I used it the other day so reconsidering that one! Fly swat and cats for pest control (we got 100s of mice before cats, ick!)

I sometimes make my own laundry powder, but lately have been buying Ecostore powder and Dishwashing liquid. Everything else is bicarb & vinegar. Is there anythingg they can't do? :lolI have a spray bottle with vinegar, dishwashing liquid, water and tea tree oil. I use it on surfaces and to clean the bathroom. We use all natural stuff in to clean our bodies too. I have had eczema all my life and it has completely gone since we switched to more natural products :shock

I like the bi-carb and vinegar thing too. I use all ecofriendly stuff too. It's so satisfying :lol
