Get Rid of Ants with cornmeal. Put small piles of cornmeal where you see ants. They eat it, take it 'home,' can't digest it so it kills them. It may take a week or so, especially if it rains, but it works and you don't have the worry about pets or small children being harmed!

Going to try this! Use alcohol in a spray bottle to kill bugs in your home instead of the toxic stuff in the can. Alcohol dries clean with no oily residue and is more effective than the bug sprays you'd buy in the store.

Monsanto’s Roundup Ready Crops Tied to Butterfly Decline

"It’s simply impossible to get chemical-free water from a plastic bottle... It’s unrealistic to think that water bottled in plastic containers, produced at a bottling factory, transported and stored at high temperatures for months at a time, can be purer than what a basic home water filtration system can deliver. At least 2 out of every 5 bottles of water sold are tap water." via Jen Boulden

Green Ways to Clean! Cleaners can contain hazardous ingredients such as organic solvents and petroleum-based chemicals that can release volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into your indoor environment, positing a particular danger for children. The average American household has three to ten hazardous products in the home. Look for nontoxic, vegetable-based, biodegradable cleaners or better yet, make your own green cleaners!
