Spring cleaning season is upon us, and it's time to ditch those harsh chemicals and switch to non-toxic alternatives.

Here are five of the best non-toxic spring cleaning swaps you can make, including the amazing 100% plant-based sprays and candles from Grow Fragrance!

1. Freshen up your home with Grow Fragrance's plant-based sprays and candles.

Ways to use Grow Fragrance in your home:

1. Use the sprays to freshen up your upholstery and curtains by lightly misting them with your favorite scent.
2. Spray your bed linens with the lavender spray for a relaxing and calming bedtime experience.
3. Light a candle in your bathroom to create a spa-like atmosphere during your bath or shower.

Some of the best selling scents include Blondewood, Wildflower Rain, and Lavender Blossom.

2. Use vinegar for a natural all-purpose cleaner.

Vinegar is a versatile natural cleaner that can be used for a variety of purposes. Mix equal parts water and vinegar in a spray bottle to create an all-purpose cleaner that can be used throughout the home. Its acidity helps to break down dirt and grime, making it an effective cleaner for many surfaces.

Some ways to use vinegar: 

1. Clean your showerhead: Mineral buildup can reduce the water flow of your showerhead. Soak it in a mixture of equal parts vinegar and water for an hour or overnight, then rinse thoroughly to remove the buildup and restore water flow.

2. Unclog drains: Pour 1/2 cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by 1/2 cup of vinegar. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes, then rinse with hot water. The chemical reaction between the vinegar and baking soda can help to break down and clear clogs.

3. Clean your dishwasher: Place a cup of vinegar in the top rack of your dishwasher and run a hot cycle without any dishes. This will help to remove any buildup and leave your dishwasher smelling fresh.

3. Clean and deodorize carpets with baking soda.

Baking soda is an effective and affordable way to clean and deodorize carpets. Simply sprinkle a generous amount of baking soda over your carpet, let it sit for 15-20 minutes, and then vacuum it up. Its natural absorbency helps to remove odors and dirt, leaving your carpets clean and fresh.

Other ways to use baking soda:

1. Use baking soda to scrub and clean your kitchen sink and stovetop. Sprinkle a bit of baking soda on a damp sponge and scrub away grime and stains.
2. Freshen up your garbage disposal by pouring a cup of baking soda down the drain, followed by a cup of vinegar. Let the mixture fizz for a few minutes, then rinse with hot water.
3. Use baking soda to clean and deodorize your cutting boards. Sprinkle baking soda onto the board, rub with a damp cloth, and rinse with water.

4. Use lemon juice for a natural degreaser.

Lemon juice is a great natural degreaser that can be used to clean greasy surfaces like stovetops and ovens. Mix lemon juice with a bit of water and use a cloth to wipe down surfaces. Its acidity helps to break down grease and grime, leaving your surfaces clean and shiny.

Ways to use lemon juice for cleaning:

1. Use lemon juice to clean and polish copper cookware. Cut a lemon in half and rub it onto the copper surface, then rinse with water and dry with a soft cloth.
2. Add lemon juice to your laundry to help remove tough stains. Mix lemon juice and water in a 1:1 ratio and pour it directly onto the stain before washing.
3. Make a natural all-purpose cleaner by mixing lemon juice and olive oil. Use it to clean and shine your wood furniture.

5. Try Borax for a natural laundry booster.

Borax is a natural laundry booster that can help to brighten and freshen up your clothes. Add a half cup of Borax to your laundry detergent to boost its cleaning power and help remove stains and odors. Plus, it's a natural alternative to bleach, which can be harmful to the environment and your health.

Ways to use Borax for cleaning:

1. Use Borax to clean your bathtub and shower tiles. Mix 1/2 cup of Borax with a gallon of water and use a sponge or cloth to scrub away grime and soap scum.
2. Add Borax to your toilet bowl cleaner for an extra boost of cleaning power. Sprinkle a small amount into the bowl, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub and flush.
3. Use Borax to clean your carpets and upholstery. Mix 1/2 cup of Borax with a cup of baking soda and sprinkle it over your carpet or upholstery. Let it sit for 15-20 minutes, then vacuum it up to remove dirt and odors.
