Dishes clean, as well as tiles on the floor. 🙂 But what if we have wooden floor? A great way to clean wood is tea – to start with, boil a pot of water. Then, add 5 or 6 tea bags into it. Leave it for about 10 minutes, and, after that, pour that tea into your mop bucket – you can add some cold water, if the tea is too hot. Sweep your floor with mop – it should wash off any stains and even make them a little more shiny.
But watch out – it may be slippery. 😉

Eco Tips: Eco cleaners #5 – clean wooden floors with tea
September 3rd, 2012Eco Tips: Eco cleaners #4 – To make your dishes shine… use ketchup! :)
August 31st, 2012If your cookware such as pots and frying pans are getting tarnished, then you won’t cook much – unless you clean your bronze cutlery and dishes.
To do that, you can simply use… ketchup. 🙂 And nothing else, don’t add anything, don’t mix it with anything… just pour some ketchup on cloth or rag, and rub the tarnished parts until they disappear. After that, clean it with water. Save some time and money and be ecological. 😉
Eco Tips: Ecological cleaners #3 – lemon juice
August 30th, 2012Want to save money on your dishwashing liquid? Try using lemon juice – it has abilities to wash off many stains out of steel or dishes. What you need to do is to mix lemon juice with baking soda and vinegar to create a paste which can be used to clean dishes, surfaces and stain. If you want to clean your house furniture – mix this lemon juice with olive oil. 🙂 The possibilities are many, but always try this mixture before actual cleaning, to check if it won’t cause any damage or bleach marks in your house. 😉

Ask for a porcelain cup in Starbucks and Peet’s!
June 16th, 2012Hello Greenzoners! 😀
Haven’t you seen too many dust bins filled with dozens of used, plastic coffee cups? Because of the damage it causes to the environment and big costs of transporting rubbish, in popular coffee stands such as Peet’s and Starbucks you can ask to have coffee in re-usable porcelain cup, that you need to give back. That reduces the amount of disposable cups, that are creating extreme amounts of waste. The problem is that not everyone knows about it, so that many people buys coffee in throwaway cups.
If you are buying coffee at Starbucks or Peet’s, next time ask for a re-usable cup, it’s always one piece of litter less. 😉 Also, inform your friends, the more people know about it, the better!
