I found this great list in the book "Gorgeously Green".
1. White Vinegar - Cleans and disinfects naturally. Good in the dishwasher, as a drain cleaner (with boiling water), in the washing machine (once a month), washing windows (half water/half vinegar), to clean the microwave, kettle, eyeglasses, lunch boxes, and toilet.
2. Baking Soda -eliminates odors and is a good scrubbing powder.
3. Borax - removes dirt; is antifungal and a possible disinfectant.
4. Hydrogen peroxide (3% concentration) - nontoxic bleach, antibacterial agent, and stain remover.
5. Lemon juice - grease cutter and stain remover.
6. Liquid castile soap - all-purpose cleaner, grease-cutter, and disinfectant.
7. Olive oil - makes great furniture polish.
8. Essential Oils of lavender, geranium and tea tree - antibacterial and add a great smell to your home.
