It seams like it is the new bleach in everyday cleaning and around our homes. Of course without the effect of dangerous chemicals, because chlorine bleach is highly toxic.
Children and pets end up in emergency room every day.
So 3% hydrogen peroxide(H2O2) can be a less toxic and safer alternative to chlorine bleach.
Here are some tips and instructions for it`s use:
- fill a spray bottle with peroxide mixed with equal parts water to use to disinfect your bathroom. Be sure that spray bottle is dark colored to prevent peroxide from breaking down in sunlight.
- if surface mold develops in your home, apply full strength 3% peroxide onto surface to kill the mold and bleach the discoloration. Remember than peroxide works like a bleach use only on color safe surfaces
- to use in the laundry to whiten clothes use one cup of peroxide instead of bleach
- the Environmental Protection Agency states that you can rinse your cutting board with peroxide to kill germs including e-coli and salmonella
-wet your dishcloth with peroxide to disinfect counter tops and table tops
-soak your toothbrushes in 3% hydrogen peroxide for an hour every day after brushing teeth. To do it longer than that length of time is counter productive because peroxide breaks down when exposed to light. After the 1 hour remove toothbrushes and rinse with water and allow to air dry in toothbrush holder
-spoon at least 2 oz. of 3% hydrogen peroxide into the detergent compartment of your dishwasher along with your regular detergent. Run your dishwasher as usual to clean and disinfect your dishes
-replace bleach with 8 oz. of hydrogen peroxide to launder and whiten your clothes
-dampen a cotton ball with 3-percent hydrogen peroxide and run along the keyboard of your computer to disinfect and clean keys.

I found this information very helpful. I believe that this could be used on your new venture, Spiritual Messenger, it could be a "clean While being Green" article of the month. Remember this, I have seen you having a small crew of one or two, whom you supervise within the homes of your clients. Instead of doing one or two home each day, you could have several homes you and your crew would go in and have the work managed by you. This would help you increase your client base and not wear yourself out so much. Something to think about. Have great days always.
