Who let the dogs out?

I love this photo! Do you know how many times your kids touch your glass doors & windows? What about when your child occasionally “licks” the glass door while pressing their face & hands against the glass?

My dogs love to press their noses against the glass, which leaves their "nose prints" behind.  It doesn't matter if my dogs are inside or outside, they can make a mess of my glass doors.  I am cleaning my glass several times, but I do it the easy way! 

Using toxic cleaning products on the windows or glass is not preferred for obvious reasons!  What cleaning products are your children or pets ingesting during the course of the day? How long does your cleaning product have to remain on the surface before your surfaces are clean?

It wasn’t until I began to thoroughly read the product instructions on my disinfecting wipes -- the product had to remain "wet” for 4 minutes to clean the surface.  WOW!! Although the smell of “clean” was in the air, it took a while! I was still using a chemical that I didn't want my kids or pets to ingest.  I tried “green” cleaners, but I was not impressed with their ability to clean nor with the number of disposable paper towels that were required to wipe the cleaner from my surfaces.

With Norwex there are no chemicals necessary! Just use water! So easy to use that you can do it several times a day! If your window or glass is dirty, use the Norwex Antibac Enviro Cloth with water and follow with the Norwex Antibac Window Cloth for a streak-free shine.  These products are also available in a Basic Package.  A great way start using Norwex and experience how easy it is to use!  Start saving time & money!

Don’t put your pets or children at risk of being exposed to toxic chemicals; use something that you can trust. With kids helping & learning to clean using Norwex & water, you will be spending more time enjoying your kids & pets this summer.

What are your summer travel plans?

Going Camping? Boating? Traveling in your RV? Riding Dirt Bikes?

With summer coming soon, many families take to the road in their RV, go camping or boating. Here are a few Norwex products that you may find come in handy during your travels. 

The Antibac Enviro Cloths, Travel Cloths, Window Cloth or Car Cloth are a must for traveling in the car or RV! Have you ever stopped to get gas & wondered how you were going to clean your windshield? How about using water & the Car Cloth or Window Cloth? How about using the Antibac Enviro Cloth or Travel Cloths on your hands & face to wash up? My family takes their Body Pack (face cloths) with them and uses them to wash up on the road.

The Dusting Mitt, Enviro Cloth, Window Cloth, Tea Towel & Kitchen Cloths are all great for camping. Use the Tea Towel to dry hands instead of using paper towels. Think of all the paper towels & money you will save on your trip!

My brother & his family enjoy camping. Since the Norwex MOP did such a great job in their house, they took it camping… Here is what I received when they returned.

"I took it camping - no bleach just water and my camper floors were spotless!!!! Who would have ever guessed!"

The Kids Mop & Cloth Package would be great too - and great for a trailer, boat, or cottage.

Since the DishWashing Liquid is biodegradable, it is safe for animals and the environment if you dump out your dishwater into the woods or wherever. Use the EnviroTowel to dry dishes. It is super absorbent and drives quickly.

The Drain Care is safe for RV's, good for maintenance and would be handy to have if you're out in the boonies and get a clog. The Mattress Spray is a great idea for campers. Use it for mattresses, sleeping bags, pillows and all other bedding. It's great especially for seasonal items that may be in and out of storage.

The Body Pack, is awesome for camping! Just add water and you can freshen yourself up a bit whenever you need it. Great for staying clean while "roughing it." If you have children, you will want the Baby Body Pack for a smaller size for their face & body. I had a customer tell me that the body pack gets 'Kool-Aid' mustaches off right away!

You will love all the Antibac Enviro cloths for those nasty itchy mosquito bites - just wipe a wet Antibac Enviro cloth on the itch and it goes away for many hours before you have to reapply!

Here is a tip -- If you get a mosquito bite, apply a little Shea Butter, and it seems to just disappear!

The Sport Towel or Bath Towel is great, since both dry quickly, and don't need to be laundered too frequently. If you need to do laundry, don’t forget you can take along a small container of the Laundry Detergent & dry your cloths quickly using the Dryer Balls.

If your family rides dirt bikes when you go camping, you can't really launder riding gear, especially while out in the wilderness. Everything gets dirty after a few hard rides. The Sportzme is great to freshen up the gear, chest protectors, inside boots and helmets, even socks and jerseys. (After all, it was designed for hockey equipment.) You can also use it to spray down the tents. Especially, if you have smelly boys!

The Odour Eliminator is an excellent deodorant for use in garbage cans/bins, washrooms and removes unpleasant organic odors. Since the Odour Eliminator is highly concentrated and diluted with water, this is a great cost saver.

After you are finished camping, boating or traveling in the RV, put all your Norwex cloths, towels & MOP pads in the Washing Net and you will be ready to toss them in the laundry when you get home.

This from a customer…

"I have to tell you that Norwex is great for traveling. Having cloths that don’t mold when you stick it in a baggie is AWESOME! Also, that green towel is awesome for soaking up water when you are hand washing... things that need to be cleaned."

Now doesn’t this sound like everyone will enjoy the trip?

Happy Earth Day!

What are you doing for Earth Day and Celebrating Mother Earth?


There are small changes that we can make to promote green & healthy living. As I began to think about the changes that my family has been making, I realized that many are simple day-to-day changes.

Here are a few changes that we have been making:

1. We have begun to throw out plastic and use glass containers

2. We are choosing more organics and making fresh food choices

3. Reading labels for ingredients

4. Using a water filtered pitcher for our tap water

5. Recycle & Reuse

To celebrate Mother Earth go for a walk or have a picnic!

Of course, the biggest change that we have made this last year is eliminating toxic chemicals from our household. It is amazing how doing this one thing can bring about a better quality of life!

Norwex Makes Cents

Look at what you could be saving using Norwex Eco-Friendly Products!  Norwex will save you time & money. 

Save money by reducing the use of chemicals and cleaning supplies up to 90%.  The average household spends $450 - $600 a year on these items.  Here is a cost evaluation of what you could save over a 2-year time period using Norwex.  I have heard customers say that Norwex is "just too expensive".  While this may appear to be true, you have to look at what you are saving over time.  Yes, you will pay a little more when you "go green", but you have to look at the benefits to your family and the environment.  

I used other "green" products, before discovering Norwex, that may have cost the same as other cleaning products, but I still used paper towels or other disposable products to clean.  Not with the same result as using Norwex.  Norwex provides a satisfaction that my counter tops are 99.9% bacteria free, just using water! 

This cost evaluation does not include all the paper towels and other disposable products that you may use with other cleaning products.  My family has almost eliminated the need for paper towels.

Spring Cleaning was so much easier with Norwex.  Norwex has taken the chore out of cleaning by saving us time.  Knowing that everyone can use Norwex makes cleaning so much easier and safer.  Cutting my cleaning time by 75% has provided me the time to pursue other activities and hobbies.  In today's busy world, decreasing your cleaning time can eliminate a lot of stress.

Spending more time with those that are important in your life -- that is truly important!



When it comes to Spring Cleaning – Less is More!

As Spring has arrived, my thoughts have turned to Spring cleaning.

Have you heard the term “Less is more”? As I began my spring cleaning, I was focused on getting rid of the dust & dirt left behind from the winter months. Using Norwex gives my home a smell of clean. Only using water to make my home clean truly gives me a sense of “less is more”. I don’t have to leave toxic cleaning products on my windows, counters, furniture or floors. As I do dishes & laundry, I realized that I only use 1 teaspoon of detergent – Now that is less than any product! Even the air freshener I use is so concentrated that it has taken me a year to use it up! Compare that to other laundry detergents, dishwasher detergents & air fresheners. The smell of clean smells like nothing and using so little product saves me time & money!

I had a customer that was having difficulty with her kitchen tile & grout. The heavy traffic areas had turned the grout lines dark and left her floor looking dirty. She had tried every non-toxic cleaner from a bleach water solution, ammonia water solution, and vinegar & water spray. Finally, she tried floor & grout cleaners, but nothing ever worked. She had decided that she would have to replace the grout or try to paint it.

I told my customer to try the Norwex Cleaning Paste, an old toothbrush, and water! Well… see for yourself. These are the before & after photos my customer took of her tile and grout.

You can see that the grout line that has been cleaned has returned to its original color. She is thrilled that Norwex has once again proven that it can clean & renew surfaces.

Norwex will save you time, money, improve your family’s health and protect the environment. I have had many customers tell me that their family has been so much healthier using Norwex products.  Why smell all those chemicals when going down the store aisles? Imagine how much better you can feel and how much more time you can spend with your family, just changing cleaning products.

Spring is the best time to evaluate how you are cleaning your home and what you can do to help the environment by using eco-friendly products. Make this year the year that you become more eco-friendly.
