3 Favorite Non-Toxic Cleaning Products
As a mom, I am very picky about what I use in my home. Since my struggle with infertility and the research I did during that time, I have found that many of the common household products that are available in stores contain harmful ingredients. Through several years of trial and error, I have finally found household cleaners that I am comfortable using in my home with my family that actually work well and get the job done! Below are my top 3 favorite non-toxic cleaning products.

#1 Favorite Non-Toxic Cleaning Product:
Thieves Household Cleaner
Around eight years ago, I began researching causes for infertility during my long struggle to get pregnant. In my research, I found that many household products contained harmful chemicals that could have been contributing to my issues. One of the first products I switched out was my household all-purpose cleaner. Thieves Household Cleaner is my absolute favorite thing to clean with. It is formulated with the Thieves blend essential oil plus other plant-based ingredients. I love it because It is safe to use on all surfaces and around children and pets. It smells amazing and is actually good for you!
When I clean with this non-toxic household cleaner, I mix one to two capfuls with a splash of vinegar and around ten drops of lemon essential oil in a glass spray bottle. I then fill the bottle with water and shake it. The cleaner is super concentrated, so one bottle lasts several months, making it more cost-effective than other store-bought cleaners that are watered down in addition to containing harmful chemicals. This is why Thieves is my favorite non-toxic cleaning product.
#2 Favorite Non-Toxic Cleaning Product:
Force of Nature
Another of my top non-toxic cleaners is Force of Nature Disinfectant Cleaner. I was recently gifted this cleaner, and I really like it! It is an EPA-certified disinfectant that cleans and disinfects just as effectively as bleach without all of the harsh chemicals. The only ingredients in this cleaner are water, vinegar, and salt. This cleaner is concentrated, and you mix it with water and put in on a base that ionizes the solution to activate the disinfectant powers!
The cleaning package comes with a base, the cleaner concentrate, and a spray bottle. It is great to use after I have been preparing raw meat in my kitchen, cleaning my bathrooms, or spraying on surfaces when someone in my home has been sick. I also use it as a fabric refresher. I received my cleaning bundle in December (5 months ago), and I have not had to reorder yet. It lasts a long time and works really well, which makes it one of my favorite non-toxic cleaning products.
#3 Favorite Non-Toxic Cleaning Product:
Branch Basics
Lastly, my third favorite cleaner that I like to use is Branch Basics. I like this cleaner because it is so versatile. One bottle of plant-based concentrate can be used for all of your cleaning needs: all-purpose, bathrooms, glass, laundry, and even hand soap! Their starter kit comes with a bottle of concentrate and empty bottles for all your household cleaning needs! You just follow the directions provided and mix the recommended amount of concentrate for each cleaning need. I am confident this cleaner will become one of your favorite non-toxic cleaning products!
As a mom, I believe that I am the gatekeeper of my home. I decide what products we use, and I choose products that I believe are safe and healthy for my family. What are your favorite non-toxic cleaning products? I’d love to hear from you!
