Natural/Organic Cleaners

I want to look into getting some natural/organic household cleaning supplies. I just cleaned my bathroom and I could hardly finish the job because the fumes were so strong. Many times the smell can trigger a migraine for me. Just the thought of all that inside my body and esp. my kids' bodies.

Anyone know of any good ones or have links?


Thanks!

Are you sure the fumes are from the chemicals and not from your poo?

really hot water and a coarse washcloth gets most stuff off - I'd rather live with germs than chemicals

I have seen those. Do they work well? I have 2 little boys and their aim isn't the best. lol I want to be clean but get rid of the harsh chemicals. Plus it's better for the environment. But, the main reason I am seeking these is for health reasons.

I am reading an article now about vinegar, lemon juice, and baking soda and all the things they can clean. eek

It's amazing!

they're all i was using once i started living in my own apartment, and now that i'm living with someone else, i got him using mrs. meyer stuff too (he's more into the lavender scent, i'm more of a lemon verbena guy).

i think it works great. i'm a fan of the scouring powder and the all-purpose cleaner in particular.

I'm not sure they're organic, but I've heard good things about Method.

I stick to the fumey stuff. If I tear up, I know the tub's clean.
