    I don't make cleaning products, but I do use simple, relatively green things. Bicarbonate of soda (sold in boxes for cleaning) is great for using like cream cleaner, as well as a metal polish. It also seems to be the only thing which removes the scale ring which keeps forming in the toilet.

    Borax can still be bought, but it's harder to find, so if you look in the cleaning section you'll probably find borax substitute instead. This works really well for removing grease from things and isn't considered harmful in modest amounts around food, so it's my usual kitchen cleaner.

    These two things do a lot of my everyday cleaning.
  • Spray bottles with hydrogen peroxide watered down and white wine vinegar watered down are pretty much all the products i use.

    Hydrogen peroxide food grade is also great for the body, mothwash, teeth brushing, ear cleaning etc.
