Who Knew? We need a lot less “cleaner” than we think. Maybe just a teaspoon. That’s one of the lessons Rotarian Randy Monlux told his colleagues at their Nov. 20 meeting. Monlux owns the local Stanley Steemer operation, so he knows a thing or two about cleaning “green.” Kingston-North Kitsap Rotarians also learned that the most common and most predominate natural cleaner is coconut oil, which is harvested mostly in Indonesia, the Philippines, and India. Simply defined, cleaning is removing soils from a surface, placing them in suspension, and transferring them to somewhere else. Four elements are generally present in cleaning: chemistry, heat, agitation, and time. Monlux advised Rotarians when buying commercial cleaners to look for the EPA Safer Choice Program label “DfE,” designed for the Environment.
