Spick and Span

Multiple Chemical Sensitivities (MCS) is a common co-morbid condition associated with M.E. For me it means that my body cannot tolerate a lot of the things I used to take for granted. Consequently, the usual array of household cleaners are no longer an option. 

This afternoon my sister did a "detox" house clean for me. She did a thorough clean using old fashioned things our Mum would have used in her youth, before the advent of the vast array of chemicals that are found in most homes today.

White Vinegar is effective for killing most mold, bacteria, and germs, due to its level of acidity. 

Eucalyptus Oil kills 99.9% of germs, dust mites in bedding and is a good natural deodoriser.

A paste made from baking soda and water is very effective when used in cleaning and scrubbing.

The house is gloriously fresh and clean without the use of harsh chemicals.
