I would be very interested in knowing exactly what you use especially for

dusting.

I use dust cloths I get from allergy supply company Allergy Supply Company

Products

I use soaps from Trader Joe's (Pure Planet & Seventh Generation are their

brands, some groceries carry them also) for laundry & dishes. Melaluecca

company had some gentle general cleaning products and as a former distributor

I've

got a nearly lifetime supply! I also make my family wash off stuff in the

bathroom & kitchen and dry surfaces well so we don't get the dirt & ick building

up in the first place. Scrubber pads do most everything in the kitchen...if

anything stronger is ever needed, I have to make hubby clean it.

Can you list some of the ones that work the best and you like the most?

I have an African Grey parrot that is very sensitive to all this stuff as I

am.

Not to rain on the parade, but I have a severe asthmatic reaction to

bounce and similar products even in tiny doses - so very careful with

this stuff if anyone with asthma or allergies could even conceivably

encounter the scent. It's a really deadly asthma trigger and I don't

think it's going to be legal forever, quite frankly.

Agreed Russ, thanks! I am " chemically sensitive " so much that most

household

products are not allowed in my home at all. The few cleaning products I

have

are from health food stores, Trader Joes and off a few websites. But I

petsit in other people's homes & can tell at once when I enter just how

" toxic "

their cleaning products are! The worst offenders are those air fresheners

in any

form. The oils released from any of those are known to actually adhere to

lung tissue and damage it if inhaled.

Also, pet owners might like to know that the scented cat litters and pine

shavings are deadly. Studies show them causing lung damage and respiratory

failure also, in pets and their owners. The only litter I consider safe is

called

Sweet Wheat, a great product made from wheat. Instead of pine (and cedar,

which is worse) shavings, I use Bed O Cob, from corn cobs.

I am doing market research for Country Save. They make laundry detergent

and cleaning products which are supposed to be earth friendly and good for

sensitive skin. http://www.countrysave.com/ I have tried the product and

like it myself, but I don't have the sensitivities. If you try this, please

let me know if it is as good as the President of the company said.

letting me know.
