Use refillable spray bottles for mixing cleaning concentrates

in

Look for products made from plant-based ingredients such as citrus, herb, and vegetable oils. Vinegar and baking soda are natural and effective cleaners. Use refillable spray bottles, and buy concentrates instead of ready-to-use solutions. Avoid aerosol sprays. Instead of paper towels, use microfiber cloths, which can be laundered.
