Natural Ingredients
The onething that makes organic cleaning agents so popular is the use of all natural components.

This spray also has insect repelling properties and is not onlyenvironment friendly but also safe, especially if you have children or pets athome.
Additional Precautions For Chemicals
An important reason to avoid using syntheticcleaners is the smell of chemical fumes, breathing in fumes can impact your health adversely especially if you are prone to allergies or breathing problems. Add to this the precautions you have to take while cleaningto avoid accidents that may affect your skin or eyes. Organic cleaning proscribes to safeproducts that should have no adverse effects your health and that of others.
A Fresh Home, Naturally
Air fresheners sold off the shelf in aerosol cans are terrible for the environment, causing global warming. Other than the environmental impact, there is nothing natural about the fragrance in the can, it is completely synthetic, made in a lab! So don't let the image of a lemon on the can fool you into thinking it has actual lemon in it. Use naturalingredients to make your own home fragrance by simmering 2 oranges, cloves and cinnamon in a liter of water till aromatic, cool and strain into a spray bottle for a natural DIY home fragrance.
Also, hanging up a garland of fresh herbs, putting out a vase of fresh flowers or even a bowl of seasonal fruit can scent a room.

Know Your Cleaning Products
Government regulations do not make it not mandatory to list the contents of chemical cleaners on the label. You maynot even know the toxins you're bringing home. Opt for green cleaning which is not only home and community friendly but do not pollute ground water and local water bodies even if you pour them down the drain.
