Green cleaning: grandma's recipes
Cleaning the house in an environmentally friendly way may seem difficult. But you have to remember that the ancients did not have access to chemicals and other products to keep their homes clean. Plus, it doesn't take as much time as some people think. Here are some grandma's recipes to make your cleaning moment eco-friendly.
For stains
White vinegar is a great asset for indoor cleaning. Combined with different elements, no stain can resist it. For the windows of your house, you can use it with hot water. This allows you to make them shine. It can also remove stains from clothes and mattresses when used with baking soda.
However, white vinegar has a strong odour, so you can use Ekopin's natural 3-in-1 ecological disinfectant stop odour to clean the air inside your home.
For pests
Pests are pests that live in your home without your knowledge. There are several types of parasites such as fleas, lice or ticks. They attack humans and animals. And your barnyard is not spared. Fortunately, grandma has left us some natural recipes to get rid of them.
Oil is the natural enemy of lice. They do not resist this product and suffocate. You can use several natural products to fight against them such as:
- Olive oil;
- Garlic ;
- Onion;
- Vaseline;
- Salt;
- Mayonnaise;
- And coconut oil.
For the garden
The garden also needs to be cleaned properly, as in addition to dirt, parasites such as fleas and ticks live there. They especially attack your pets and livestock.
Diatomaceous earth is a very effective natural insecticide. It can get rid of bed bugs, fleas, cockroaches and other pests. It is very easy to use, just pour it on the area to be disinfected and the pests will die. You can also apply it to your cat and dog to relieve them of their troubles.
To clean your garden, you can opt for Ekopin's 3-in-1 Ecological Natural superpowered outdoor Cleaner.

The brand also offers an effective solution to clean your garden furniture with the natural ecological 3-in-1 garden furniture cleaner. It can be applied to all kinds of materials such as wood, PVC or woven resin, even the most delicate surfaces.
Ecological cleaning: choosing the right products
When our grandmothers went out shopping, they never forgot to buy a few cleaning products. Their baskets were always filled with unpalatable items that we didn't understand the purpose of.
Nowadays, we understand why they bought them. And they have been improved to make the ecological cleaning more efficient. Here are some examples.
Olive oil
As well as being useful in the kitchen, it protects your wooden furniture and makes it shine. It also has anti-lice properties.
Lemon or white vinegar
These two elements have the same properties. If you combine them with the right elements, they will get rid of any dirt.
Essential oils
They are used to naturally perfume the house. Some of them act as mosquito or pest repellents.
Green cleaning: high-tech products
The technology sector helps us a lot to clean faster and in an environmentally friendly way. Many household appliances use less energy and are made from recycled materials. Some designers go a step further, taking damaged appliances and repairing them. They then resell them at a reduced price, a technique known as reconditioning. This technique has proved its worth in several areas. It provides solutions for e-waste and at the same time reduces the burden on the customer.
Cleaning can be done in an environmentally friendly way. You just need to know the right techniques and have the right products.
