Klippel to speak on natural
cleaning products
Florence Herb Enthusiasts
will host popular local speaker
Frances Klippel during their
Thursday, May 21 meeting.
Klippel will share how to
easily make healthy cleaning
products using ingredients you
probably already have avail-
able around the house.
Common household clean-
ers contain items such as:
ammonia, bleach, butyl cello-
solve, cresol, dye, ethanol,
formaldehyde,
glycol,
hydrochloric acid, hydrofluo-
ric
acid,
napthalene,
paradichlorobenzenes, per-
chloroethylene, petroleum dis-
tillates, phenol, phosphoric
acid, propellants, sulfuric acid,
and trichloroethylene.
Each of these chemicals is
dangerous and most are con-
sidered hazardous waste.
“It’s really easy to make
your own natural cleaners with
vinegars, essential oils and
other basic items,” said
Klippek. “We are commonly
exposed to toxins on a daily
basis from many commercial
cleaners. The cleaners we
make at home are ever so
much more safe for humans
and our animals to use on a
regular basis.”
Florence Herb Enthusiasts
will meet at 11 a.m., at New
Life Lutheran Church, 2100
Spruce Street (next to Food
Share.)
Guests are welcome to
attend their first meeting free;
annual dues are $10.

Robert McGlauflin at 541-

Beveridge at 541-997-8311.
