Cleaning for Allergies & Sensitivities: A Thoughtful Approach

Do you or a loved one suffer from allergies or sensitivities? If so, you're not alone! Over 100 million people in the U.S. experience some form of allergy, from eczema and asthma to seasonal triggers. But have you ever considered how cleaning products might play a role?

Many common household cleaners contain chemicals that can cause allergic contact dermatitis—an inflammatory skin reaction triggered by otherwise harmless substances. For individuals with asthma or severe allergies, certain ingredients can also worsen symptoms, making it essential to choose cleaning products carefully.

So why am I writing about this? Because a sweet mama recently reached out to me, concerned about the chemicals I’d be bringing into her home. She wanted to ensure their environment remained safe. That conversation got me thinking even more about how I can accommodate families with sensitivities.

At Blank Space Cleaning, I already prioritize safe, effective products. I primarily use Sal Suds as my all-purpose cleaner—an all-natural, pet-safe solution that cuts through grime without harsh chemicals. But I know that every family is unique, and I’m always happy to adjust my cleaning approach to fit your needs.

If you or someone in your home has allergies, sensitivities, or specific product preferences, just let me know! Your family’s health and comfort matter, and I’m here to help create a sparkling clean space that feels safe for everyone.

Would love to hear from you—what are your go-to products for allergy-friendly cleaning?
