Green Window Cleaning Recipes and Tips

How often do you clean your windows? What do you use to clean your windows? Have you ever thought why it is hard for you to breathe while cleaning your windows with a store detergent? You think it is because of the efforts you make? Well, partly it is, but not exactly.

Window cleaning detergents that are sold in every supermarket are very effective, but they have a very harsh smell, which is sometimes smothering. We think that the hard breathing is because of the efforts we make, but that is not the only reason. The chemicals in the detergent are the main reason. Not to mention how dangerous it is if you accidentally spray some of the detergent in your eyes or mouth.

Instead of using harsh-smelling window cleaning sprays, house cleaning companies recommend you to use only natural products when wiping your windows. There is a very simple and just as effective solution, which you can prepare on your own at home. Here is the recipe:

Mix two tablespoons of white vinegar with a litre of water and pour the mixture into a spray bottle. Shake it a little bit and it is ready. Spray the window and wipe with an old newspaper or with a clean cotton cloth.

If your windows are too dirty, wipe them with a dry cloth before you spray them with the above solution. Otherwise, they will become muddy and harder to clean.

So, that's it. Follow the advice of professional house cleaning companies and use only natural products when you are cleaning your windows. You will save a lot of money from store detergents.
