Apr 20, 2008 - In order that we do not encourage smart alecs, I am adding some information in answer to your question. Yes in the third world villages, GOOD HOME HYGENE includes using cow dung for antibacterial wall plastering (painting), Cow dung for generating methane gas for house hold cooking and even lighting and I have personally witnessed such houses literally running on bio waste. The remains go into use as organic fertiliser for crops. I hope that wakes up people to more natural and SAFE lifestyles.

Jul 17, 2008 - hey again! okay, i hope i don't sound like too much of an idiot... but what exactly is dr. bronners? is it something that everyone just kinda knows about? also, is there an alternative? plus, if you want a fresh scent in any cleaner, add lavender oil to it. you can also use lavender oil as: bug repellant disinfecting alternative to neosporin for cuts ear infection cure sinus clearer sleeping aid and perfume of course!! it's amazing what it can do... it also stops and reverses swelling!
