Clean with Vinegar

Vinegar is a great way to clean without using toxic chemicals. I use white vinegar, the kind you get in a gallon jug at the grocery store for 3 dollars, and water to clean just about everything in my home. Occasionally I throw in some salt or baking soda for the extra nasty stuff. I put maybe a quarter of vinegar into a spray bottle and fill the rest with water and voila... I use vinegar to clean my bathroom, floor, countertops, refrigerator, stove-top, just about anything. It doesn't leave any chemical smell, it is better for the air quality of your home, and better for the environment. Plus it is so much cheaper and lasts for so much longer. And don't worry, it will kill germs... well maybe not swine flu.
