Who doesn’t love a clean, sparkling home?
But if a clean home means swiping your whole house with a boatload of harmful chemicals, are you really cleaning your home? Especially when there are plenty of natural cleaning agents available that will clean your house just as effectively as any chemical without any of the potential health risks.
In this blog, we explore eco-friendly natural cleaning sprays which will leave your home smelling oh-so-wonderful and gleaming. These natural, non-toxic sprays are effective and safe to use around children and pets.
Why should you use an eco-friendly cleaning spray?
Long story short – common household cleaners contain toxic ingredients that hurt you more than help you.
Increasing research has shown that conventional cleaning agents such as bleach are linked to increased risks of migraines, dermatitis, and asthma.
Especially if you have young children, non-organic cleaning materials and detergents are linked to poisoning, poor immune system functioning, breathing difficulties, and skin issues.
Not only that, but household cleaning chemicals are also bad for the environment. They enter our water systems and soil, where they are linked to plant & animal death and algae blooms.
Keep your family and the environment healthy by switching to a natural, eco-friendly, plant-based cleaning spray instead. They work just as well and are gentle on your body too!
What is an alternative eco-friendly cleaning spray?
If you are concerned about the increasing health and environmental risks of conventional cleaning sprays but also want to keep your house clean, I know how you feel — I have been there too. The worrying research around the adverse health effects of cleaning sprays made me come up with my own all-natural, eco-friendly, human-friendly cleaning spray.

5 ways to use Ollie’s eco-friendly cleaning spray
OIlie’s multi-purpose cleaning spray can be used in a variety of situations and on different surfaces. Here are 5 ways you can use your Ollie Green Clean eco-friendly cleaning spray at home.
Clean any surface
The Green Clean spray is safe to use on any non-porous surface. This means you can use it to clean glass, tile, stone, wood, and metal surfaces. Just spray and wipe.
I use only plant-based surfactants and emulsifiers in the Green Clean cleaning spray because they are gentler on the skin and safer than synthetic surfactants. They break down stains, grease spots, and dirt just as effectively as any other synthetic cleaning agent.
The addition of essential oils such as rosemary leaf oil, cedarwood oil, and May Chang oil also provides aromatherapeutic benefits such as air purification, sanitizing, and insect-repelling properties to your home. Plus they make your home smell wonderfully fresh!
Disinfect surfaces
The cleaning spray has several active ingredients which have anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties. The key ingredients which we use in the spray for disinfection are dehydroacetic acid and cedarwood oil. If you have any frequently touched surfaces such as doorknobs, kitchen counters, and bathroom counters which you need to disinfect, just spray on the surface and wipe down.
Clean stubborn stains
The Green Clean spray can remove stubborn stains from most non-porous surfaces. You can remove food stains, drink spills and any other icky stains without stress with the Green Clean spray. The plant-based solubilizers and coconut-based surfactants in this quickly break down stains and make them easier to remove.
Just spray on the stain, let it sit for 30-45 seconds and then wipe it down.
Deodorise your house
Repel insects
Went on vacation and forgot to empty your dustbin and now it smells all funky from leftover food? Simply wash the surface with water, spray some Green Clean spray, and wipe the container.
The May Chang oil and Cedarwood oil will remove the nastiest odours in an instant and have your home smelling fresh and clean again.
The best way to keep your house bug-free is by cleaning regularly. But even if you get the occasional roach, don’t worry. Cedarwood oil and rosemary leaf oil contain compounds which repel cockroaches, flies, and mosquitoes.
You get 2-in-1 benefits with your Green Clean cleaning spray. Your house stays clean, fresh, and bug-free.
Keep your home clean, green, bacteria free naturally
Keeping your home clean and smelling fresh doesn’t mean you need to load it with harmful chemicals. Store-bought cleaning agents contain harsh chemicals which can irritate the skin, release fumes that weaken the lungs, and can cause a host of health issues for you and your family.
Instead, choose a health-friendly and eco-friendly cleaning agent such as Ollie’s Green Clean spray and keep your home clean, green, and healthy. Once you use Green Clean spray, you won’t feel like using anything else!
