  1. http://www.methodhome.com/

    Their products are biodegradable, nontoxic, and not tested on animals. Method is starting to sell their products in 100% post-consumer recycled bottles.

    I know target sells their products. I am not sure of any other stores.


  2. Green works by Clorox is a green cleaner.

  3. Try biokleen dot com. Environmentally safe, hi performance cleaners. They have excellent products.

  4. Yes green cleaners kill germs...

    1)...

    how to kill/get rid of germ is to create an environment that they can not live in...many different ways this can be done, such as changing the pH-like using vinegar, change in temp, such as those shark steamer cleaners...green cleaners still "clean" they just contain more environmentally friendly ingredients that nature can dispose of easier (break down easier/faster).

    2)...

    White vinegar-kills bacteria, cuts grease, odors,and wax build up; removes mildew;also dissolves hard water build up.

    Olive oil- polishes furniture

    Lemon Juice-bleaches, deodorizes, cuts grease and removes stains.

    club soda-removes stains,polishes; great for cleaning windows.

    baking soda- removes odors, sprinkle on oven floor and spray till damp leave over night; scrub clean in the morning. Add to laundry to deodorize and for a fabric softener.

    3) ...

    A lot of stores are now carring enviromentally friendly products. If you can't find any, your local health food store should be able to help you.

  5. Soap and water.

  6. "Simple Green" has been around for a long time. It is seriously powerful when used straight. It has a kind of black licorice smell though. Mrs ssmi is correct, vinegar is great, baking soda can be used for a number of helpful things, I believe that Clorox has just released a line of environmentally friendly cleaners as well.

  7. I don't do the cleaning my mum does. But i wouldn't trust anything that was green. I trust proper cleaning stuff like easy off bam (if you live in australia). But if you live in america or somewhere else then all i can say is use something well known and good not something bad and GREEEN>

  8. Vinegar and water. I think it is 1 part vinegar to 8 parts water.

    This solution:

    a) kills germs

    b) baking soda, vinegar, and rubbing alcohol.

    c) the Seventh Generation

    Hope this helps!
