Fortunately, more and more people start to pay attention to the environmental issues we face up to every day. Admittedly you can’t deal with the deforestation, the air and the river pollution but you can be that change you want to see in your friends, relatives and co – workers. It is a well known fact that the car fumes and the factories are the main reasons for breathing bad quality air and drinking poisoned water. It looks like nobody takes the harmful ingredients the cleaning supplies contain, too seriously.
To a certain extent, that’s understandable. If you are constantly on the go, the probability to read the labels carefully before performing some cleaning is slight. You just grab the multi purpose cleaner and deceive yourself that you live in a healthy environment.
If you are really concerned about the nature, however, you should change your attitude towards every detail that might be potentially harmful to the environment. Reducing the number of toxic cleaning detergents is a really good start. As a matter of fact, substituting the commercial cleaning supplies with vinegar, baking soda, ammonia and lemon would get you the same excellent results and will save you money as well.
But if you decide to take advantage of the house cleaning services, provided by a professional cleaning company like Deluxe Cleaners London and you still want to keep the usage of the harmful materials to the minimum, you’d better do some considerable research. Call the cleaning company you consider to be your trustworthy cleaning provider and ask the representatives if the company uses eco – friendly cleaning materials. Every respected cleaning company is trying to adopt the ecology cleaning methods and achieve the same impeccable results. If you, for one reason or another, are not completely content with the quality or the ingredients the cleaning company uses during the domestic cleaning procedures you can suggest them an alternative variant. For example, providing your own cleaning supplies and asking for a price reduction. Every housekeeper knows that if mixed right, the natural cleaners – lemon, baking soda, vinegar etc. are irreplaceable in dealing with tough stains and dirty surfaces.
Ask something about the background of your future cleaning assistant. Are they certified and thoroughly trained prior to hiring? Despite the popular saying that “Practice makes perfect” reading some stuff and keeping yourself informed about the latest breakthroughs and news concerning the cleaning industry should be considered to be an advantage. If your housekeeper is really experienced like Deluxe Cleaners London, they should be well aware of the bad impact the regular detergents can have on your health. Not to mention that they have a direct contact with various harmful substances on daily basis so they will also benefit from using eco friendly mild ones.
The market is flooded with cleaning detergents that are said to be “non – toxic” as well so the decision is yours. The most important thing is to avoid any health problems the cleaning detergents may cause such as rashes, allergies outbursts, headache, respiratory diseases. Being eco – friendly is not an impossible task, you just have to make a habit of using the proper materials and make the planet a better place to live. Every effort is worthy of making: buy rechargeable batteries, recycle properly, don’t overheat your house, walk or ride a bike to get around instead of driving a car and last but not least – make sure you start the changes from using eco friendly cleaning detergents and hiring a maid that is environmentally – conscious. Having a clean home doesn’t mean that you have to inhale the millions dangerous particles released in the air when spraying. On the contrary – doing the house chores with natural and harmless materials will make your house fresh, neat and tidy in no time. To cut the long story short, the combination of eco friendly cleaning supplies and a knowledgeable maid will undoubtedly lead to incredible results.
