09 Nov How to kill germs & viruses without harsh chemicals

It’s more important than ever to keep our homes and surfaces clean. Between flu season, strep going around, and of course, COVID-19, we have all definitely have been doing our fair share of cleaning!

For the past 20+ years, my family, and many of my friends and Shaklee members have used Shaklee household products, which offer a safer way to clean up messes. The Get Clean starter kit offers a full line of all the cleaning and laundry choices you use every day.  It saves you money along with being non-toxic and chemical free and it is great for the planet too.

But the holy grail is Basic-G. It comes separate from the kit it is not only an effective disinfectant it is also safe and easier on the environment.

Basic-G gets rid of germs and viruses without those dangerous phenols and cresols that can harm your lungs in other common disinfectants. It is incredibly economical – one 16 oz. bottle makes up to 32 gallons.

I have used it for so many things over the years from sanitizing the door handles and surfaces to killing the salmonella on the kitchen counter where I handled raw chicken. I have even used it the kitty litter box or where my dog had an accident. Check out this disinfectant reference sheet.

Shaklee recently released a new and improved Basic-G+, which works faster than the previous formula. Check out this document FAQs for best practices when using Basic-G+

Finally, what’s most important: Basic-G+ has been shown to be effective against the COVID-19, which is caused by SARS-CoV-2, a novel coronavirus. Basic-G+ kills similar viruses and therefore can be used against SARS-CoV-2   CDC guidelines for disinfecting your home

This makes me feel so good cleaning up around my toddler grandson as I know he is as safe as possible when we use Shaklee products.
