COLD AND FLU SEASON IS BACK!!

Here we are again..this lovely time of year where the flu bugs and viruses are taking advantage of our exhaustion due to weather changes and xmas shopping!!
We are being attacked by germs, flu bugs, whiny kids and overloaded work schedules!

Before I begin..I just wanted to respond to those of you who read the blog and email in.. (I am so sorry for the delay in blogging..my time has been monopolized by..well..you guys calling in and wanting cleans!! No I am not whining..i am truly appreciative..so thank you all very much!!)

So, last year, I gave some tips for the cold and flu season on how to keep your home sanitized.
This year, in today's blog, I want to throw out a few suggestions and recommendations on how to keep your home sanitized for the season but also how to create a naturally healthy space, so when you get home after work or shopping or whatever..you can feel relaxed and at ease.

As part of Enviropure's regular home cleaning structure, we have added a few things into the mix for this season.

1) During your regular cleaning session with us, we have added extra spot cleaning to your structure. Which means using purified water and 99.9 % alcohol with a few drops of tea tree oil to disinfect door knobs, light swtiches appliance handles etc..

2) Adding some Organic peppermint to the microfilter (not the hepa filter) in the vaccuum. the Microfiltration is replaced more frequently than the hepa filter, so it's best to use the essential oil where you can dispose of it afterwards as needed. PEPPERMINT, as I have discussed before has so many health benefits. It is an anti-nausea, helps with respiratory problems, chest congestion and headaches. Enviropure uses a lot of organic peppermint while vaccuming to freshen up the air and rejuvenate the senses. This is soooooooooo good for you especially because we are all feeling a little gloomy and sick with the weather, so why not take a deep breath when you get home, enjoy the sanitation of your space..kick off your heels. RELAX!

3) So..I need to discuss this one..because I see this everyday, and it's a huge problem, even in my house with my kids. lol. TOOTHBRUSHES!!! If your kids toothbrushes are going to be in the same cup holder, then, disinfect them regularly!! Enviropure offers the suggestion to clients upon coming in and doing the clean..however, you can do this yourself between cleans. My suggestion would be to take your toothbrush cup, fill it with hot bathroom tap water, steaming hot water, put 2 drops of tea tree oil in it, place your toothbrushes in it, let them soak for a few minutes, then rinse them well..with cool water. BAM! there you go..in a few minutes, disinfected naturally! Heck..you can do that while you are cleaning the bathroom. This is super important folks because kids share and spread germs and i see this all the time in YOUR very own bathroom. It's a good tip!!

So That is all for now!! Hope you enjoyed! Email me your feedback.
