I wasn't too keen on purchasing an arsenal of toxic cleaning products from the supermarket to get the job done, I hate the smell of them and I know that they are not healthy.
The search for a better option led to the discovery of another wonderful product with multiple uses- Lectric Soda.
This wonderful water softener is a completely natural product that contains no dyes or phosphates and is so safe to use that you can add it to the water you cook your vegetables in or your dish-washing water.
It has so many other, varied uses too; cleaning and deodorizing wood (tables, chopping boards, benches), cleaning silverware and even treating roses for blackspot in the garden.
However, my two favourite uses are these:
It is an AMAZING degreaser! Mixing 1/4 cup of crystals in very hot water will get the horrible kitchen grease off just about anything! Soak rangehood screens or exhaust fan covers or wipe down the walls and watch the grease come off incredibly easily.
Anyone else have venetian blinds? Cleaning them is not something I was looking forward to, but I took them down and put about half a cupful of Lectric Soda in hot water in the bath and soaked each blind individually. The accumulated grease and dust wiped off immediately, making an annoying task less painful.
The best use?
Relax your weary limbs after all that cleaning and put half a cupful in a bath for yourself at the end of the day with a few drops of your favourite essential oil. Ahhhhhhh.....!
