Safe, Effective Cleaning: Atworth’s Trusted Products and Why They Matter

Keeping a home clean isn’t just about appearances, it’s about protecting your family’s health and preserving the longevity of your space. At Atworth, our household management professionals use trusted, non-toxic products that deliver results without compromising well-being. Here’s a look at our go-to cleaning supplies, why we use them, and what we firmly avoid.

Our Top 5 Favorite Cleaning Products

1. Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds – Our Go-To All-Purpose Cleaner

Dr. Bronner’s Sal Suds is our primary cleaning product at Atworth, and for good reason. This plant-based formula is free of synthetic fragrances, dyes, and harsh chemicals, yet tough enough to cut through grime and grease.

Where We Use It:

✔ Kitchen counters (granite, quartz, laminate, marble, butcher block, stainless steel)

✔ Bathroom surfaces (sinks, tubs, toilets, tiles, grout)

✔ Floors, glass, mirrors, baseboards, laundry stains, carpets, pet areas, and more

Why We Love It:

• Biodegradable & non-toxic

• Highly concentrated (cost-effective)

• Safe for kids, pets, and sensitive skin

• Zero harsh fumes

2. Murphy’s Oil Soap – Gentle Hardwood Floor Care

Our go-to for finished hardwood floors, Murphy’s Wood Cleaner gently cleans without damaging the wood’s natural finish.

Benefits:

✔ Nourishes and protects wood

✔ Safe for long-term use

✔ Leaves a non-greasy, streak-free shine

3. Bar Keepers Friend – For Tough Stovetop & Kitchen Messes

Bar Keepers Friend is our solution for built-up grease, stains, and stuck-on messes.

Ideal For:

✔ Glass cooktops

✔ Stainless steel appliances

✔ Pots, pans, sinks, and faucets

Used sparingly, it’s a powerful but surface-safe solution.

4. Orange Glo – Safe & Effective Stainless Steel Cleaner

We use Orange Glo to give stainless steel surfaces a safe, streak-free polish without harsh ingredients.

Use On:

✔ Refrigerators, dishwashers, ovens, range hoods

✔ Fingerprint and smudge-resistant

5. Soft Scrub – Reserved for Mold & Mildew Challenges

Though we avoid heavy-duty chemicals, Soft Scrub is our last-resort solution for tackling persistent mold and mildew, always applied cautiously and in ventilated areas.

Why Sparing Use Matters:

• Abrasives can harm surfaces

• Chemicals affect indoor air quality

• Natural solutions are prioritized first

Why We Don’t Use Fabuloso and Other Harsh Cleaners

Many commercial cleaners, including Fabuloso, are loaded with synthetic fragrances and harmful chemicals. While the scent may be appealing to some, the health risks—especially for children and pets, aren’t worth it.

Here’s why we say no:

❌ Toxic residues on surfaces

❌ Respiratory irritants and allergy triggers

❌ Non-biodegradable ingredients harmful to the environment
