Best Disinfectant Wipes

This is a sponsored post. Ideas and opinions are my own.

Now that we are in March and we are all excited for spring, there are a few things that we need to keep in mind.  We may be safely starting to host more people in our homes, having more play dates, and participate in more adult activities. Because many of us are still dealing with safety concerns and perhaps worried about disease transmission, it is a good idea to talk about disinfecting surfaces and doing it in a way that is not harmful to ourselves and those around us.

With this in mind, I decided to try Arm & Hammer Essentials Disinfecting Wipes.  Why these wipes in particular?  I really like to use cleaning products that either eliminate odors or smell good, but don’t act as a “cover” for bad odors.  I’m looking for a stronger odor-eliminating system.  I also prefer products that don’t contain harmful chemicals as I use them on surfaces that are touched by little hands and little pets.

I also prefer to use wipes because sometimes I carry items in my car that may need to be disinfected.  The wipes allow me to quickly and thoroughly wipe those surfaces and gives me peace of mind.  I love how easy it is to pull the wipes out of he container and how the shape of the container makes it easier to store.  When I’m on the go (and I’m normally on the go!), the best product is not only the high-quality one but also the product that is user-friendly.  With the Arm & Hammer Disinfecting Essential Wipes I’m covered on both fronts.

In terms of the particular fragrances, I really like both, Renewing Rain and Lemon Orchard.  They both have a citrus base scent even though the Lemon Orchard is much stronger.  I typically like “lemon” scents in my kitchen so using these two products in my kitchen (in particular the Lemon Orchard) has been a no-brainer.  I remember the day we started using these wipes:  As I was walking in the door from work, I could smell the citrus scent as I soon as I walked in the door, coming from the kitchen.  What a wonderful way to be welcomed in my own home!

But of course, you are not limited to your kitchen!  I use them to clean toys so that they are disinfected and cleaned in between uses, and to disinfect other surfaces, likes knobs and handles.  You can keep them in your car (as I do) or in your purse for when the need arises.  And if you clean your car with it, it will smell incredible when you return to it!

I definitely recommend Arm & Hammer Disinfecting Essential Wipes for your every day, quick fix up messes and for your everyday disinfecting needs!

Happy Cleaning!

Time for Spring Cleaning!

This is a sponsored post. As always, opinions and ideas are my own.

It’s been a long winter!  Personally, I cannot wait for the sunny days ahead, while I enjoy the sunny days we get here in New York in March.  March in New York is a mix of sunny and cloudy/rainy days, warm days and cooler days, and some other days that are downright cold.  But every year, when March comes around, the warm and cool mix reminds me of the task ahead:  Spring cleaning!

Typically, I wouldn’t get excited just because I need to do some cleaning. But there is nothing I love more than to take out my blouses, my dresses, my shirts, and short-sleeve t-shirts.  But of course, since I work with very young children and have pets at home, there isn’t a time when I check them out and I find them to be stain-free.  There is always a pesky stain here or there that makes my washing a bit more challenging.

As I mentioned previously (see my previous post here), I’m always on the lookout for good cleaning techniques and cleaning products because when I work with my little ones, sometimes things get messy.  I also love to recommend good products to parents!  Enter Biz and Kids ‘N’ Pets.  These enzyme-based cleaners make life a lot easier!

Why?  You may ask.  Although these products are designed to remove a variety of household stains, my problem usually lies in removing markers and different types of paint (did I mention I work with little kids?).  I also do occasionally need help removing grease and oil stains (I love cooking!), and food.  These issues can be compounded when you happen to miss a stain and leave it aside for a long time, as it happens to me sometimes.

Enzyme-based cleaners are not harsh or harmful to the environment.  They are an excellent choice if you want to use natural products and not use strong chemicals in your everyday wash.  In my case, I pre-treated shirts with Kids ‘n’ Pets Stain and Odor remover spray, and it helped me tremendously.  You can also use the liquid to boost your laundry detergent, to treat your smelly clothes before you put them in the washing machine, and to deodorize.

If you have little furry children, like I do (both dog and cat), you may want to use the spray to remove the odors from blankets or kitty litter.  I usually smell them more as the weather gets warmer, so having a spray bottle of the Kids ‘n’ Pets stain and odor remover is a great solution.

And don’t forget to check out the Biz Stain and Odor Eliminator for your wash.  If you have any clothes that look like they need a second wash, or whites that are far from whites, or any other stain or odor issue, give this enzyme-based product a try.  You will not regret it.

For more information about these products, check out their website, here for Biz products and here for Kids ‘n’ Pets. See their information about enzyme-based cleaning, and then try them for yourself. I started using them and I haven’t stopped. 

Happy Spring Cleaning!
