MRS. MEYER’S CLEAN DAY

This line of cleaning products was inspired by Mrs. Thelma Meyer, an Iowa homemaker and mother of nine. As she says, “I have cleaned my own home for more than 40 years and believe me, after raising nine children I know a little something about cleaning.” The company was started by her daughter, Monica, to honor her “good old-fashioned values.”

Their collection of household products are made with essential oils from flowers and herbs, with scents like lavender, lemon verbena, and geranium. Unlike the cleaning products on the market today, these contain no chlorine bleach, ammonia, petroleum distillates, parabens, phosphates or phthalates. And they are not tested on animals.

Third party tests confirm that Mrs. Meyer’s products are on par with (and often better than) national brands.  As they say, “Cleans like the dickens!”

DID YOU KNOW
Around 2200 BC, the ancient Babylonians found a way to improve water’s cleaning power, and like so many great discoveries, it was by accident. Water had been used to clean cooking utensils that were covered in animal fat and wood ash. By combining the three substances, they inadvertently created the world’s first soap.
