When storing sweaters away for the winter, make sure they are completely clean so they repel moths. Any organic materials -- food residue, grease (yuk!) -- is nourishment for moths. Place the clean sweaters in a storage box and fill sachets full of dried lavender to naturally drive away the hungry insects.

Visit your local landscaping store and stock up on all your spring shrubs, flowers and other ground-cover plantings. Look for native species -- these are plant varieties that are indigenous to your growing region and will thrive better. Also, ask the nursery if you can return the plastic pots after you've finished planting; many will take them back and to use again.

If you have hardwood, ceramic or laminate floors, ditch your old mop and bucket or disposable wet-mop devices and think of the power of steam instead. A steam mop heats up regular tap water and bursts disinfecting steam through the head of the mop. As it loosens dirt, it also kills germs and bacteria -- all without harmful chemicals -- and leaves a streak-free finish behind. Lots of steam mop brands are available at your local home improvement store.
