What is probiotic cleaning?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProbiotic cleaning uses beneficial bacteria (the good guys) to clean your home naturally. Instead of harsh chemicals that kill everything, our products introduce helpful microbes that break down dirt, eliminate odors, and continue working for up to 72 hours after you clean.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e2. Are your products safe for children and pets?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. Our formulas contain no harsh chemicals, toxic fumes, or dangerous residues. The bacteria we use are the same safe types found in natural environments and fermented foods, and all our other ingredients are equally safe for families, pets, and waterways. They're completely non-toxic and hypoallergenic.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e3. How is this different from regular cleaning products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraditional cleaners destroy your home's natural microbiome - the protective ecosystem of bacteria that supports health. Our Microbiome Support™ technology adds beneficial bacteria that crowd out harmful microbes while continuing to clean long after application.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e4. Do your products really work for 72 hours?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Unlike chemical cleaners that stop working once they dry, our beneficial bacteria remain active on surfaces, continuously producing natural cleaning enzymes and preventing harmful bacteria from returning for up to 72 hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003e5. Will these products work on tough stains and odors?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur probiotic enzymes break down stains and odours at the molecular level - they literally digest the compounds causing the problem. This biological approach is often more effective on organic stains and eliminates odours permanently rather than masking them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow to use\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSpray generously on the stain.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eScrub gently with a damp cloth.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRemove excess solution.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRepeat for tough stains, or add to washing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor stubborn stains, repeat step 1 then wait 5-10 minutes before step 2.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eIngredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAqua, Natural Surfactants, Probiotic Enzymes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWarnings\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eCAUTION\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn case of contact with eyes, rinse thoroughly with water.

Just like your gut has helpful bacteria that keep you healthy, your home has its own protective bacterial ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTraditional cleaners kill all bacteria (good and bad), while green cleaners simply avoid chemicals. GoodBasics introduces beneficial probiotics that continue cleaning for 72 hours, outcompete harmful bacteria, and support a healthier indoor environment.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt's probiotics for your home - the same science that supports gut health, now creating healthier living spaces for your family.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow do your products actually clean dirt and stains?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur probiotics produce powerful natural enzymes that break down organic matter at the molecular level. These enzymes target proteins, fats, oils, and starches - essentially \"digesting\" dirt, food residues, grease, and odour-causing particles. The cleaning continues for up to 72 hours as the probiotics keep producing fresh enzymes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhat makes GoodBasics different from other cleaning products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoodBasics uses probiotic biotechnology to support your home's natural microbiome. While traditional cleaners kill all bacteria (good and bad), and green cleaners simply avoid harsh chemicals, GoodBasics actively introduces beneficial bacteria that continue cleaning for up to 72 hours while protecting your home's healthy bacterial ecosystem.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre your products safe around children, pets, and my family?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eAbsolutely. The probiotic strains we use are the same safe, beneficial bacteria found in fermented foods and soil. They're non-pathogenic and completely safe around children, pets, and food preparation areas. With no harsh chemicals, toxic fumes, or dangerous residues, you can clean with confidence knowing you're not exposing your loved ones to harmful substances. In fact, they're safer than harsh chemical residues left by traditional cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo your products actually clean as well as traditional cleaners?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes. Hospital studies show probiotic cleaning can reduce pathogens by up to 83% and is often more effective than traditional disinfectants in real-world conditions. Our products clean effectively while providing the added benefit of ongoing protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I mix GoodBasics products with other cleaners?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe don't recommend mixing our products with chemical disinfectants or bleach-based cleaners, as these will kill the beneficial probiotics. Our products work best as a complete system. You can use them alongside other natural cleaners if needed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow should I store GoodBasics products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eStore in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Avoid extreme temperatures. Our products are shelf-stable and don't require refrigeration.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow often should I clean with GoodBasics?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause our probiotics continue working for up to 72 hours, you may find you need to clean less frequently. Start with your normal routine and adjust as you notice surfaces staying cleaner longer.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eAre your products vegan and cruelty-free?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, all GoodBasics products are vegan-friendly and we never test on animals. Our probiotic cultures are grown using plant-based nutrients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eHow environmentally friendly are your products?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eOur products are fully biodegradable and actually beneficial to the environment. The probiotics help break down organic waste in water systems, and our packaging is recyclable.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDo you have any certifications?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, we're PETA approved and Green Tag certified. Our products are manufactured in South Africa under strict quality standards and our probiotic strains are selected for safety and efficacy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe product seems less effective than my previous cleaner. What should I do?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eProbiotic cleaning works differently – it may take a few uses to see the full benefits as beneficial bacteria establish themselves. For immediate results, ensure you're using enough product and allowing proper dwell time before wiping.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eI'm not seeing the 72-hour effect you mention. Why?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ongoing effect is happening at a microscopic level. You might notice surfaces stay cleaner longer or have less odour between cleanings. In high-traffic areas, you may still need regular cleaning, but with less effort over time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eCan I use your products in areas with hard water?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eYes, our products work in all water conditions. Hard water (water with high mineral content like calcium and magnesium, common in many South African areas) won't affect the probiotics, though you may notice different sudsing action compared to traditional cleaners.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eWhy don't your products foam like regular cleaners?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWe use minimal foaming agents because excessive foam doesn't improve cleaning and can interfere with probiotic activity. Less foam means more active probiotics and better long-term results.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"GOODBASICS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67746696003894,"sku":"6009881198220","price":129.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/9136\/3126\/files\/6009881198220-onelife.jpg?v=1792157937","url":"https:\/\/onelife.co.za\/products\/goodbasics-probiotic-stain-remover-500ml","provider":"One Life Health Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
