what should I use to clean my bathtub that is organic?

Mega company SC Johnson has jumped on the organic bandwagon and come out with a line of organic non-toxic cleaners that you can pick up anywhere.
Or you can do like I do and just make your own! That way you know EXACTLY what is going into your family's cleaner. Here is a recipe for the bathtub:
The most basic home cleaning recipes involve baking soda. Just add four tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water and use it as a spray or scrubbing soda. Or, make a paste out of about three parts baking soda and one part water. Allow this to sit on stubborn spots to deep clean. You can also use three tablespoons of washing soda in a quart of water as a general purpose cleaner. Washing soda may also be used in place of regular laundry detergent.


If you are looking for ways to bring more natural products into your cleaning routine, there are a few basics you will want to have on hand at all times. All of the following items should be available at your local organic grocery store:

• Baking soda: This baking basic is a powerhouse of cleaning and deodorizing. It can be used in homemade cleaning solutions, as a paste or sprinkled directly on a surface.
• Borax: A naturally occurring compound made of boron, sodium, oxygen and water, borax is a great cleaner, especially for laundry.
• Cornstarch: Great for cleaning carpets and rugs, cornstarch can also be used in place of baby powder.
• Lemon juice: A natural whitener, lemon juice can also remove grease and other stains, especially on aluminum and porcelain.
• Salt: Abrasive but gentle, salt is great for scouring.
• Washing soda: This is different from baking soda and is a good choice for general cleaning, cutting grease and disinfecting. You can find it on the laundry aisle, but it may not be an organic product.
• White vinegar: Another great general-purpose cleaner, white vinegar is good for removing mildew, grease and other stains. It is also a great choice for washing windows and making metal surfaces shiny.
