CLEANING
PUT AWAY EVERY LITTLE THING.
If kids
live in or visit your home, scan rooms for
small items that might be choking hazards.
GO ON POISON PATROL.
Keep medicines
and household chemicals in their original bottles or
containers. Store them out of the reach of children.
CLEAN SPONGES DAILY.
To help wipe out
germs, toss sponges in the dishwasher with a drying
cycle—or microwave a damp sponge for one minute.
Consider using paper towels to clean countertops.
They’re less likely to spread germs.
SHINE ON.
Mix ¼ cup of white vinegar
with a quart of warm water for a homemade,
less toxic window cleaner.
Go green! Reduce, reuse, recycle.

where to dispose of or donate items at
