Norwex Green Cleaning Blog

Are you spraying unneccesary chemicals in your home to try to kill viruses and bacteria?  According to a new report, Dr. Mercola, well-known Naturapathic Physician, you are exposing your family to toxic fumes for nothing.  The only things that effectively kills these noroviruses and bacteria is bleach or a more natural application - 3% hydrogen peroxide followed by simple household vinegar.  Other "disinfectants", since they do not kill all the germs, are actually harmful, because the germs become immune to them and grow stronger.

Here's the best solution:  You can still use the hydrogen peroxide sprays, but why not use our anti-bacterial Norwex microfiber cloths for cleaning?  They will pick up the germs effectively and then kill them right in the rag within 24 hours.  Our microfiber is the only one on the market with silver (an antibacterial) woven right into them!

Forget that trip down the supermarket aisle that contains all the household cleaners!  Use water!  It's as simple as that. 

Not many people like cleaning their toilets, but it's a necessary chore.  The Norwex Sanira Toilet Brush System makes your job much more pleasant.

Both the cleaning solution and the brush are produced from environmentally friendly raw materials.  The cleaning solution is vegetable-based with coconut oil and a naturally-occurring sugar surfactant.

The brush does not contain any metal parts.  The system dispenses 3/4 teas. of solution, which is very pleasant smelling, and will last one year by cleaning once per week.

No more toxic fumes or allergens!

The system is Item #403200 and costs $45.99.  After a year you can re-order just the refill solution for $14.99 - Item # 403201

Brush may also be ordered separately for $10.00, Item #403209

Our mops are the best for keeping all floors looking great while using only water to clean.  The handles are adjustable for height and can even reach into skylights and other hard to reach areas.

The mop package includes an Antibac Wet Mop Pad, made of our microfiber (with silver).  This pad is attached to the sturdy base with heavy duty velcro.  Dusting is done with the Dry mop attachment, which is statically charged, so the static electricity attracts dirt, dust, pet hair, crumbs, and micro particles like a silent vacuum cleaner. You will appreciate the easy swivel capability on the base. When you are finished you may wash in the wash machine or with dish soap.  Hang to dry.

The large mop package (3"x16") is $87.99 and the small mop package (3"x9") is $77.99.

All have a 2 year warranty.

Microfiber picks up better, and ours actually kills any bacteria right in the wet mop within 24 hours.

Proper cleaning technique:

Be sure to move the mop in a good-size figure-8 pattern from left to right in front of you,  as you are backing up.  This moves the dirt in one direction and doesn't miss any areas.

How to use the wet mop for cleaning:

Dampen the mop pad in a bucket of water and ring out, or do it in your kitchen sink. Attach to the mop base, and proceed to clean your floor, rinsing when the front edge becomes dirty.  Use on hardwood, tile, marble, wood, laminate, or linoleum.

1. Rinse your brush every time you use it. Poor a little mouthwash on the brush to kill the germs, then rinse it well with water to remove all the toothpaste and debris. Soak your brush for about five minutes once a week in mouthwash to sanitize the brush of germs and bacteria.
2. Step 2
   Wash your brush with antibacterial soap regularly and rinse well to remove all traces of soap.
   
3. Step 3
   Boil your toothbrush for about five minutes, which will kill most bacteria, however it can wear out your toothbrush faster. This is the better alternative for babies and small children instead of using chemicals to sanitize the toothbrush.
   
4. Step 4
   Put your toothbrush in the dishwasher and use dishwashing soap with bleach. The high heat in the washer, along with the heavy duty soap, will thoroughly clean your toothbrush. But just like boiling, the bristles will wear out faster.
   
5. Step 5
   Soak your toothbrush in 3 percent hydrogen peroxide and 97 percent water at least once a week to kill bacteria, or after every brushing when you are sick to prevent the spreading of germs and bacteria.
   
6. Step 6
   Use toothbrush sanitizer machines. Some use ultraviolet sterilizing lamps to sanitize the toothbrush, killing harmful bacteria and viruses. Others use steam and dry heat. Look for products that are approved and regulated by the FDA to ensure that you get an effective machine.
