2. I was shocked by some of the products that I use.

I will not just throw things away, but I will replace when they are used with more eco-friendly products. Most of my regular cleaning products are rated D or F. Ugh. There is only one product that I will continue to use, even with the F rating---and I do have guilt about that, but it is the only product that I found to clean my old bathtub and I have tried just about everything over the years. I will just have to make up for it with all the other products.

I will not make many of my own cleansers, but I have used vinegar and baking soda for years. I will continue and will try it for other uses than I have in the past. But I will not go through too much effort to make special cleaners. Call me lazy.

Let me know if you come up with easy cleaning products to make from safe ingredients.
