Green Cleaner

This is an all purpose cleaner you can make yourself. It is eco friendly and safe for your pets. I have not tried it myself but it sounds like it would work well. It is from the book "Pets Gone Green" by Eve Adamson.

Ingredients:
1 cup hot water
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 cup flat club soda
1 teaspoon liquid castile soap (find it in your local drugstore or natural foods store)
1/4 teaspoon tea tree oil (find it in your local drugstore or natural foods store)

Combine the hot water and baking soda in a 4-cup glass measure or a bowl, and stir until the baking soda dissolves. Stir in the club soda, castile soap, and tea tree oil. Pour into a spray bottle. Spray on surfaces, and let it stand a few minutes, then scrub clean.

By the way, I highly recommend this book. It has great information, good design, and it is eco friendly.
