WHY SHOULD YOU CLEAN WITH PEROXIDE?

Besides saving money, there are several advantages when you use hydrogen peroxide to clean your home. One of the most important advantages is the fact that it is nontoxic. it’s a very strong disinfectant, that even when used long term it won’t hurt the environment, pollute the air or cause cancer like other household disinfecting cleansers.

The ways that Peroxide works for cleaning:

• Antibacterial – Hydrogen peroxide has been used as an antiseptic since the 1920s because it kills bacteria cells by destroying their cell walls.
• Anti-fungal – Not only for cleaning, Peroxide‘s anti fungal properties make it an excellent way to treat fungal infections like athlete’s foot as well!
• Kills mold & mildew – The effervescent nature of hydrogen peroxide makes it more effective than chlorine bleach at reaching and killing mold on porous surfaces. It is also inexpensive and readily available at grocery stores and pharmacies.

Because it disinfects, your cleaning tools are also disinfected every time you use them. Another benefit is the versatility of using hydrogen peroxide for cleaning. A number of surfaces can be cleaned with it, meaning that you don’t have to worry about five different cleaning products! It can even be used as a fruit and vegetable soak. I keep a bottle of peroxide under the kitchen sink. Conveniently sprayer tops fit the peroxide bottle, a great way to recycle!
