Nature’s Source Natural Cleaners (Giveaway)

Filed under household, reviews & giveaways
With everyone going green these days, I feel that cleaners are of special importance. When you have kids, you want to make sure your home is as clean as can be so you have to make sure that what you’re using is safe. That’s why I was really excited to find out more about Scrubbing Bubbles new Nature’s Source Cleaners.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Nature’s Source products use plant-based, biodegradable cleaners and they have the cleaning power of Windex and Scrubbing Bubbles, brand names you already know and trust. They clean naturally and effectively, leaving nothing behind but a fresh scent. The cleaners are more than 99 percent natural, packaged in recyclable bottles, partly produced by renewable energy from a local landfill, and recognized for safer chemistry by the Environmental Protection Agency’s Design for the Environment (DfE) program.
MY REVIEW
I had the opportunity to review 2 of their cleaning products: Natural Bathroom Cleaner & Natural Toilet Cleaner.
Both my daughters use my bathroom even though they have one of their own. This means I have constant toothpaste on the counter, fingerprints on the glass, and soap scum on the bathtub wall. To make things worse, Girlie Girl is not really the best at flushing the toilet when she’s done. Needless to say, I’m always cleaning my bathroom.
Let me tell you, these products work. And the best part is that I didn’t have to use a lot of the product to get my bathroom clean. I especially liked the way the toilet cleaner spout is at an angle so that I could shoot the liquid up and under the hard to reach places. The bathroom spray worked especially well on my mirrored doors and didn’t leave streaks behind. This is important to me because I just can’t stand a smudgy mirror.
So if you’re looking for a natural and safe cleaner to use in your home, check out Nature’s Source Natural Cleaners today!

Our family already uses most of these tips and tricks,(my older kids call me a ‘treehugger’). The one tip I would like to do is to ‘drive a green machine’. My husband does all the maintenance the article suggests, so our vehicles are as green as possible, but I would like to own a hybrid. Although, with the economy the way it is, we just cant afford to buy new vehicles. Thanks for reviewing green products. It alerts people to the fact that they DO work, and they are so much safer for our environment! Thanks for the great giveaway too, I hope I win.

Hi, We keep our faucets tight, our dryer loads full, and we recycle. Thanks.

I already do most of the tips but making a candy wrapper wallet seems like a great idea for the grandkids. That would be fun too.

We already send hubby to work with a reusable coffee mug. No point in wasting the paper (or worse styrofoam).

I have already told my husband that I would like to have a programmable thermostat. My neighbors have one and they say it has saved them money. Thanks for the chance.

I like the idea of using packing peanuts in the soil of plants! We live in a rental property, so our flowers and veggies are all in hanging baskets and pots. This would be a great tip for us to use this spring!

We do them all except we have never made a candy wrapper wallet, which looks like a lot of fun!

The ‘curtain call’ was a good tip, gotta remember that!
A good tip I learned is bring your own cup. So simple and I am going to do it now. Thanks for the good gieaway.
Become a peanut farmer got my curosity up the minute I saw it and boy was I fooled. This is a great idea for a otherwise useless product. Who wants to save peanuts until they are ready to send a new package, unless you ship a lot and I don’t. Thanks for the super giveaway, My bathroom cleaning is my biggest challenge,

clean as you go
In our home, chargers for cell phones, VCRs, televisions, stereos, computers, and kitchen appliances, etc. are unplugged when not in use, usually via a power strip. Refrigerator not included !!!
I only do full loads of laundry or dishes.
The tips offered that I already do or have been doing is unplugging electrical devices and appliances when they are not in use. And bringing my own cup with me (even when I go to Starbucks, I just transfer my drink right into my own cup and give them theirs back-although, occasionally, they’ll actually make my coffee in my cup); but reusing packing peanuts in your container gardens is a new one for me-why didn’t I think of that before? They’d be perfect for lightweight fillers, along with the potting soil. I always look for products that use recycled materials.

That is a good use for the packing peanuts. Another tip they mention is using your own bags, I have been doing that. It is a nice feeling to know I am not using as many plastic bags!
Ride a bike and stop eating dead animals and the world will change.
I always do full loads of laundry. We have a well so I am always careful not to waste. Thank you!
I donate unused clothes to charity and use unsalvagable ones for cleaning but I have not recycled to make new items like quilt tops, etc. That is one thing I would like to do in the future.

I should start doing the Curtain call tip!

I use baking soda and vinegar to clean my toilet bowls.
I try to keep electronics unplugged when using them. Good thing as we are in our second power outage in 2 weeks.
Baking soda is a great cleaner and safe to use.
I “bring my own cup”. Fork, too.
We already bring our own bags everywhere - grocery store, family homes for gatherings, etc — great tip!
I take my own bags to the grocery store and also use them at Target, Kmart, etc. I also use them to carry my lunch and stuff to work.
I love the idea about using the packing peanuts..I want to try it!

I also unplug unused appliances.
We already use most of the tips and tricks listed at the link you provided, but we’d like to make our ride even more green by getting a hybrid vehicle next time we buy. Thanks for the clean and green offer!
I like the tip to bring your own mug to work instead of using plastic/foam cups, will have to do that!
I’m trying to be better about bringing my own bags to the store..

I have never thought of using the packing peanuts in my flower pots.
i use rainwater to water flowers.
Unplugging appliances pulling current is a good one we use. We have our computer, printer etc on one electric strip and our dvd, vcr and stereo on another one that we turn off when not in use. If an appliance has a ready or green ready light on it when not in use, it’s pulling current. Also all phone charges pull current even when not hooked up to your phone.
We always bring our own bags for shopping. So many stores are either selling or giving away reusable bags that it’s a really easy thing to do. My grocery store also gives me a nickel for bringing my own bags.
One tip that I usually do is bring my own bags. I recently found some bags small enough that they can fit on a keychain. I’m going to get one of those so I’ll always have one whenever I’m out.
I compost and I will use their tip to put my shreds in there as well. Thank you!

I never thought to add packing peanuts to my potting soil, but it sounds like a great idea. I’m going to try it when I repot this spring.
