Cleaning {my oven} the safe way

I want to share something great with you!  Seriously!  I’m going with healthy and green cleaners in my home.  This is something that is VERY important to me for many reasons which I’ll share another day.  For now though, I’ll share that in the past I have used the cleaning cycle on my oven to clean the inside of it.  NO MORE!  ha! ha!  I couldn’t stand the smell in the house that lingered for hours, it made our dog cough (no lie),  and then it always made me think about what exactly I was smelling.   Hmmmm…awful smell! 

This time I used this product. 

Scour Off™ Heavy Duty Paste

I’ll show you the pictures so you can see for yourself what it did.   Even after I used the cleaning option on my oven last time, this stuff was still left on the inside of my oven door.  That is not right!  ICK!

All I did was smear (that is an official cleaning term) it on, wait for about ten minutes, and then gently scrub with a wet rag and a toothbrush to get into the letters.

Wiped it off with a clean rag and….

Cleaning {my kitchen}

I have had so much fun trying Basic H out and making things squeaky clean.  I’ll not keep you in suspense any longer.  I mentioned that I was cleaning in my kitchen and that I used it EVERYWHERE!  In the refrigerator, on the appliances, on my windows, on the floor, and yes, even on my wooden cabinets.  I didn’t realize how much stuff had accumulated on my cabinets.  That just means they are being used often, doesn’t it?  Why, yes it does!  I’m not fond of showing dirt around my home but I have to show you before and after pictures.  I’ve used other products before and haven’t really liked the results but check this out!  As I started cleaning everything near me (it became a challenge almost), I noticed this grime on my kitchen cabinet door.  I don’t even want to know what it all was or how long it had been lurking there.  Anyway…

there is my dirt BEFORE I cleaned it.  Here is…

No tricks here.  I did not play with the pictures or edit them.  Just plan old pictures of this product at work in my kitchen.  See, I told you it is great!

Since it is a concentrated product, here are some ideas of how you can use Basic H: 

For all-purpose cleaning:  Add 1/4 tsp. to 16 oz. of water.

For windows and mirrors:  Add 1-2 drops to 16 oz. of water.

For degreasing:  Add 1 1/2 tsp. to 16 oz. of water. For bigger jobs, add 2 oz. to 1 gallon of water.

Making my home cleaner {and safer}

For a few weeks now I’ve been cleaning, purging and organizing here and there.  Every now and then, I feel like I just lose control over the stuff here and I get all weird and have to clean like a mad woman (whatever that looks like). 

I had been hearing about a company that sold cleaning products that were safe for the home and environment so I purchased a bottle and started using it right away.  I had been looking for healthier and greener cleaning products so I thought I should try it.  I was completely AMAZED by how very little of the concentrated product I needed to use to clean and also what a great job it does.  The BEST part about the product is that it doesn’t smell noxious.  My daughter and I have mild asthma, so cleaning is something that I dread for all of us.  I don’t have to cover my nose and mouth when I use this to clean.  Isn’t that great?  Seriously!  No fumes to burn my throat and nose.  You know that feeling when you run to another part of the house to get fresh air.  I don’t even get a tight chest.  That is awesome to me!!  What is this product?  Well…..tada…..

Basic H

Have you heard of it?  If not, let me introduce you to the cleaning product that has replaced the other ones in my home.  It is a concentrated product and so you only have to use a few drops in a spray bottle for cleaning windows and 1/4 of a teaspoon in another spray bottle to clean all of the other surfaces.  I LOVE IT!  I have used it on nearly every surface of our home because it is safe for us.  Phew…

I’ll show you tomorrow one of the things that I cleaned with some of this safe cleaning alternative.  I’ll just give you a clue.  It is something in the kitchen that opens and closes.

If you would like to know more about this and how to get it for your home, go here.  I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have also.
