For cleaning any type of surfaces like tables, kitchen counter, stovetops, toilet, glass, etc, use a spray cleaning solution that contains a powerful yet nontoxic ingredient like citric acid, thymol, or hydrogen peroxide. For less dirty surfaces, use a reusable cloth. For dirtier surfaces, use disposable paper towel. There is no need to use a surface specific cleaning solution for every type of surface. However, use a citric acid toilet bowl cleaner. Laundry soap should also be environmentally friendly. Cleaning solutions use up quite slowly, so quality is more important than price, and there is no need to hoard. Floor needs both vacuuming and mopping. Light cordless vacuum is beneficial because cumbersome vacuum and deadling with cords is very troublesome. The vacuum should be convertible to hand vac, and have a small nozzle with brush for vacuuming small places. Vacuum cleaners are highly effective, yet still emit a small amount of pollutants, therefore maintain home ventilation. HEPA is better than conventional filter, but conventional filter is still fully sufficient, and HEPA is not 100% emission free. For a small 1 or 2 bedroom apartment, 25 minutes runtime is sufficient. Mopping with a microfibre spray mop is highly beneficial. The cleaning solution can be dilute, and must not be viscous or creamy. Wash the pad frequently. Since vacuum is effective, there is no need to mop extremely frequently.
