If the thought of spring cleaning isn't exactly sweeping you off your feet, here's something that might help you clean up your act: Accumulation of dust, dust mites and mold can harbour irritants and allergens that may cause sinus problems, allergies, headaches and fatigue. Frequent cleaning can help reduce these symptoms, but overuse of household chemical cleaners themselves can cause respiratory and other problems-even heart disease and cancer. They can also harm plants, animals and our water supply. Overuse of chemicals is a serious threat to our well-being, and it won't go away by trying to sweep it under the rug. Watkins complete line of natural-based, earth-friendly, biodegradable cleaning products-from Citrus All-Purpose Cleaner to Pine Oil Disinfectant-are good for your health and the health of your environment. You'll be amazed at how much better you can feel simply by cleaning up your act!
