Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Simple Green to clean my child's highchair tray every day?
Yes. Dilute Simple Green per the bottle instructions, wipe the highchair tray, and rinse with a damp cloth or clean water. The EPA Safer Choice certification means it is appropriate for daily use on food-contact surfaces, which is exactly what a highchair tray is.
Will this cleaner remove sticky candy and juice spills from my toddler's plastic table?
Absolutely. Simple Green was designed for tough, sticky, sugary messes in commercial settings, so a toddler activity table is well within its capability. Use it diluted for routine cleanup or slightly stronger for dried-on candy, then wipe clean.
Is it safe to mop my nursery's sealed hardwood floor with this?
Yes. Sealed hardwood is fully compatible with Simple Green at the recommended dilution for floors. The water-based, biodegradable formula will not strip the finish when used as directed, and it leaves no waxy residue that could attract dirt or affect a crawling baby.
Can I use it to wipe down plastic toys my baby puts in her mouth?
You can clean plastic toys with Simple Green at a mild dilution. For toys a baby mouths, wipe them down and then rinse with clean water or wipe with a damp cloth. The Safer Choice certification supports this use, and rinsing removes any lingering residue.
Does the cleaner come in scents that are not overwhelming in a small nursery?
All three scents, including Original sassafras, Lemon, and Lavender, are designed to be pleasant rather than overpowering. For a small nursery, many parents prefer Lavender for its calming association, but the Lemon scent is the most subtle and dissipates the fastest.
Is this a good cleaner for daycare providers who clean multiple times a day?
Daycare providers are a core audience for Simple Green. One 64 oz bottle dilutes up to 30x, which keeps cost-per-cleaning low across multiple rooms and daily wipe-downs. The Safer Choice certification also matters for licensed daycares that must document the cleaning products they use around children.
As a busy parent, will one bottle last through a full month of family cleaning?
For most households, a single 64 oz bottle diluted for daily kitchen, bathroom, and floor cleaning lasts four to six weeks. The 30x concentration means a little goes a long way, which is why so many parents consider it a budget-friendly swap for multiple specialty cleaners.
Can I use this on my kid's lunchbox interior where food sits for hours?
Yes. Dilute as directed, wipe the interior, and rinse with clean water or wipe with a damp cloth. The formula is Safer Choice certified for food-contact surfaces, so there is no toxic residue that could transfer to tomorrow's sandwich.
How does Simple Green compare to baby-specific cleaners like Babyganics?
Baby-specific cleaners are typically very gentle and priced accordingly, but they often struggle with real-world messes like dried oatmeal, sticky juice, or crayon. Simple Green delivers commercial-grade cleaning at a similar safety profile, meaning you can handle the everyday chaos of feeding and playtime without buying a separate, more expensive baby brand.
Is Simple Green better than a vinegar and water solution for family cleaning?
Vinegar and water is fine for light glass and counter work, but it cannot handle grease, oily food residue, or sticky spills, and the smell is unpleasant. Simple Green cuts grease at a similar non-toxic price point while also being Safer Choice certified, which makes it a more capable alternative for active family households.
What if my child spills something while I am cleaning?
Simple Green is a water-based formula, so a small splash on skin is not a concern. Wipe it off and rinse with water. If a child gets the concentrated product in their eyes, rinse with clean water for several minutes. While it is non-toxic, the concentrated form can sting, so storage out of reach is still recommended.
Will the lavender scent bother my child during nap time if I clean right before?
The lavender scent is light and clears within minutes, especially with normal room ventilation. If you are cleaning right at nap time, the Lemon or Original sassafras scents dissipate even faster. As with any scented product, you can always opt to clean in a different room and let the scent settle before bringing the baby back in.
How do I dilute Simple Green All-Purpose Cleaner for daily use?
For a standard 32 oz spray bottle, add one to two tablespoons of concentrate and fill with water for routine kitchen, bathroom, and surface cleaning. For heavy grease, oven interiors, or automotive degreasing, use it full-strength. The bottle label includes a full dilution chart for floors, carpet spot treatment, and pressure washers.
Can I use Simple Green in a floor mop bucket?
Yes. Add one to two ounces of concentrate per gallon of water for routine mopping of tile, sealed hardwood, vinyl, and laminate. The dilution is gentle enough for daily use but strong enough to cut through tracked-in dirt and grease. Avoid using it on unsealed wood, and rinse the mop thoroughly after use.
How do I remove a tough oil stain from concrete with this product?
Apply Simple Green full-strength directly to the oil stain and let it penetrate for five to ten minutes. Scrub with a stiff-bristle brush in a circular motion, then rinse with clean water from a hose. For very old or set-in stains, repeat the process and consider covering the area with a soaked rag for 30 minutes before scrubbing.
Is Simple Green compatible with pressure washers?
Yes. Simple Green works with most consumer and commercial pressure washers. Use the manufacturer's siphon tube or detergent reservoir, and apply at full strength to the surface, let it dwell for a few minutes, then rinse at full pressure. It is excellent for siding, decks, driveways, and outdoor furniture.
Can I use this cleaner on carpet and upholstery?
Yes. Dilute at roughly one part concentrate to ten parts water, apply to the stained area, and blot with a clean cloth. Work from the outside of the stain toward the center to avoid spreading it. For pet accidents, the biodegradable formula and Safer Choice certification make it a popular choice over harsher chemical spot removers.
What is in the box when I order the 64 oz concentrate?
You receive one 64 fluid ounce bottle of Simple Green All-Purpose Cleaner Concentrate in your selected scent. The bottle has a screw cap and is ready to use. A spray bottle is not included with the concentrate but is available separately as a Simple Green branded refill, or you can decant into your own spray bottles.
Is Simple Green safe to use on stainless steel appliances?
Yes, at the recommended dilution. Spray, wipe in the direction of the grain, and buff with a dry microfiber cloth for a streak-free finish. For stuck-on grease or fingerprints, let the diluted solution sit for 30 seconds before wiping.
Will Simple Green damage any surface I should know about?
Avoid using it on unsealed stone such as limestone, marble, or travertine, on unfinished or waxed wood, and on electrical components. It is also not recommended for use on aluminum in concentrated form without a quick rinse, as with most alkaline cleaners. For all other washable surfaces, it is safe at the recommended dilution.
What is the difference between an all-purpose cleaner and a degreaser?
An all-purpose cleaner is formulated to handle light to moderate dirt on most washable surfaces, typically used diluted for daily tasks. A degreaser is engineered to break down fats, oils, and grease, and is often used at full strength for tougher jobs. Simple Green is unique in that it functions as both: dilute it for daily all-purpose cleaning, and use it full-strength as a serious degreaser in the kitchen, garage, or shop.
