Many people switch to natural cleaning due to the health risks associated with having toxic chemicals in their home. But the products we use have a much longer life span than just within our home, working their way through the water cycle and ending up in the environment. The attached article from Junior magazine references a study undertaken by Birmingham and Warwick university in which soil contaminated with an ingredient used in many cleaning products also contained high concentrations of drug-resistant bacteria. The conclusion was that the growth of drug-resistant bacteria is triggered by chemicals used in houshold products, which has the knock-on effect of medicines no longer being able to treat dangerous diseases.
Using natural products is not only kinder on your home and cleaner, but on the planet too.
Those tips were really very helpful. Even I did not know some of them
