Safe, Non-Toxic Cleaners for Common School-Year Messes
Back-to-school season is full of excitement — but also full of messes! From juice box spills to sticky snack crumbs, your home can quickly become a magnet for school-year chaos. The good news? Keeping your home clean and safe doesn’t require harsh chemicals.
At Tina’s Clean Team, we believe in offering safe, non-toxic cleaners that are tough on dirt but gentle for your family and pets. Here’s how to handle some of the most common school-year messes without worry.
🍎 1. Juice & Drink Spills
Spilled juice, milk, or sports drinks can leave sticky stains on floors and furniture.
Non-Toxic Fix: Mix equal parts white vinegar and warm water. Spray lightly and wipe with a microfiber cloth. For carpets, sprinkle baking soda to absorb moisture before vacuuming.
🎨 2. Crayon & Marker Stains
Kids’ creativity is amazing — until it ends up on walls or tables.
Non-Toxic Fix: Apply a paste of baking soda and water to the marks. Gently scrub with a sponge until the color lifts.
🥪 3. Lunchbox Crumbs & Food Residue
Crumbs and food bits can quickly build up in backpacks and lunch spots.
Non-Toxic Fix: Shake out crumbs, then wipe surfaces with a solution of mild dish soap and water. A few drops of lemon essential oil add natural freshness.
👟 4. Dirt & Mud from Shoes
Between after-school sports and rainy days, shoes track in dirt daily.
Non-Toxic Fix: Sprinkle baking soda on entryway rugs overnight to deodorize. Shake out or vacuum the next morning for a fresh, clean start.
🧼 Why Non-Toxic Cleaning Matters
Harsh chemicals might get the job done, but they can leave behind fumes and residues that aren’t safe for little hands or furry friends. Non-toxic cleaners give you the same sparkling results — without the worry.
That’s why Tina’s Clean Team uses family-safe products in every service. We handle the school-year messes, so you can focus on what matters most.
