About This blog

First Book in the Works! Blog mostly on the Back Burner

SHARE

Cover of guide titled "Clean It! Safer House-Cleaning Methods that Really Work"! From Bay Area Pollution Prevention Group.
“Clean It”! is a guide I helped develop with the City of San Francisco, that was adopted by several neighboring cities. You can download the Clean It! guide here. My coming book will update and expand on many tips from this guide.

Greetings everyone,

I’m itching to blog more as I discover more ways to clean safely while saving time, money and hassle! But for now, the following projects take priority.

  • Day job— developing new features on demand for my Healthy Home Services, faster than I can write about them! Never quit your day job until… you know the drill.
  • Night job— finishing my first book, combining professional cleaning approaches with the least-toxic, least-wasteful products and tools that work. Now closer to final content editing! When it’s closer, I’ll launch my email newsletter.

Join my email list for any updates! Look for the dog and cat signup button in my sidebar.

Meanwhile, join the conversation on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook as I post and respond in those little, in-between moments. See my social icons in the sidebar. Plus, I’m just getting on Mastadon @reginaryerson.

Practical tips for clean, healthy homes

A healthy home is clean and safe. Where you can breathe easier. Discovering practical ways to get there— and stay there— is the focus of this blog.

This is my first blog, by the way. Learning as I go! With room for improvement, always. Feedback helps— so whether you’re an industry professional; homeowner who hires help; or DIY’er— pipe up!

Cleaning for your health, and the health of your loved ones

Among the first steps toward a healthy home is health-based cleaning. With a background in the industry, I’ve written some practical starter tips.

If you suffer from environmental allergies, asthma or other respiratory conditions, you know about avoiding your triggers. Your health care practitioner has likely recommended a personalized “Action Plan”. In my health-based cleaning post you may find additional tips.

Cleaning up your indoor air while you’re at it

Indoor pollution can affect everyone’s health. There are many sources, with cleaning among the easiest to deal with. Learn more, and find practical tips.

… The air within homes… can be more seriously polluted than the outdoor air in even the largest and most industrialized cities. Other research indicates that people spend approximately 90 percent of their time indoors.

It is prudent to try to improve the indoor air quality in your home even if symptoms are not noticeable.
