Once an industrious girl from a fairy tale for meek disposition and love of order seized the most enviable groom in the kingdom. It is unlikely that after such a profitable marriage she continued to clean the cauldrons and wash the floors. But modern women even have to lead the whole household even after the birth of the baby. General cleaning of the apartment, cleaning products - the topic of our rubric today.
Safe cleaning in the house
Young mothers are ready to carry out daily general cleaning, just to protect the crumb from the ubiquitous infections. But to do a day's work, which is beyond the capacity of the staff of five people, alas, it is impossible. So you have to buy jars and boxes for the struggle "even with the most persistent pollution", which, according to the promises of manufacturers, can save a lot of time. But not every mother thinks about how much her hypertrophied love for cleanliness and household chemicals is safe for the health of her household.
Moidodyr Mistakes
Perhaps, at one time Korney Chukovsky was right, singing the ode to purity in the famous children's poem. The many-sided habit of washing hands before meals and regularly cleaning up their home has led to the fact that we have less often come across so-called "diseases of dirty hands" - hepatitis A, diphtheria, typhoid. However, they were replaced by new problems - allergies, asthma, autoimmune disorders. At the same time in developing countries, where the sanitary and epidemiological situation leaves much to be desired, they face much less with such diseases, they mostly concern the inhabitants of large cities.
In recent years , more and more justification has been given to the so-called theory of hyperchocity. The human body is programmed by nature to work tirelessly against a multitude of bacteria, viruses and parasites. Faced with them in the first years of life, the baby's immune system trains distinguishing hostile agents from harmless ones. Abusing cleaning agents, including antibacterial, you create a practically sterile environment. In this situation, immune cells are beginning to be perceived as enemies quite innocuous for most substances, for example, certain foods, pollen of plants, animal hair. And this is the direct path to the development of allergies.
Of course, this does not mean that you should refuse to clean the apartment with cleaners at all, but as soon as you decide to succumb to the advertising of funds "killing all known types of bacteria," remember that sterility is needed only in the operating room, and not in the apartment. It is quite enough if you will carry out a wet cleaning of the apartment 2 times a week (if there are animals - 3 times), and pay special attention to the bathroom, toilet and the hall area.
70-80% of all domestic pollution comes from the street. Street dust is far from harmless. It contains practically the entire Mendeleyev system, including lead, which is extremely dangerous for a fragile child's organism. To detain dirt on the doorstep is the main task of modern barrier mats. Care for them is extremely simple: they can be washed, washed in a shower, vacuumed, swept.
Napkins made of microfiber (MKV) MKV - a unique material consisting of specially sliced microscopic fibers (much thinner than human hair), thanks to which it became possible, without resorting to chemicals, to maintain cleanliness in the apartment. Such napkins not only remove dirt, dust, but even bacteria and fungus! Thanks to the electrostatic effect, a dry napkin attracts dust, removing up to 100 static electricity from the surface to be cleaned, which means that during the 4-day days the cleaned surface will remain in perfect purity. In a moistened form, the napkin removes virtually any dirt, including fat. There is a variety of such napkins and antibacterial properties - they are impregnated with a solution with silver ions, so that they can kill any bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms without using strong chemicals.
Steam cleaner
Its advantage in versatility: it is suitable for fabrics, plastic, metal, wood. Steam easily penetrates into the most inaccessible places and removes virtually any contamination, in particular, bacterial. Contrary to the assurances of manufacturers, use a sponge after softening of strong pollution still have to. But with a greasy furniture upholstery and even with old spots this miracle of technology will cope easily.
Soap nuts
It is the fruit of a soap tree growing in India, Nepal, Pakistan. Indian women have used shells of soap nuts for more than two thousand years as a universal detergent for washing and washing dishes. They are placed in warm water or in a drum of a washing machine. This tool is very economical. With machine washing for 3-5 kg of laundry in soft water with 5-7C shells enough for 2-3 washing.
