When it comes to protecting your family’s health, the way you clean your home matters just as much as what you clean. Harsh chemicals found in many traditional cleaning products can leave behind residues and release fumes that irritate the skin, lungs, and eyes, especially for babies, young children, and pets.

That’s why more people are turning to chemical-free cleaning solutions like Laurastar’s dry microfine steam (DMS), which offers a powerful, chemical-free way to disinfect and refresh your home, without compromising safety or performance.

In this guide, we’ll take you room by room, showing how you can harness the natural power of steam cleaning to sanitize your home, reduce allergens, and promote a healthier living environment.

Living Room: A Breath of Fresh Air

Your living room is a hub of activity—and a magnet for dust, germs, and allergens.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Upholstery and throw pillows: Laurastar’s dry steam penetrates deep into the fabric to kill bacteria and dust mites without saturating or damaging materials.
  • Curtains: Skip the dry cleaner—use steam to deodorize and sanitize in place.
  • Pet Beds and Throws: These cozy spots for your furry family members are also hotspots for odors, bacteria, and allergens. Steam refreshes and sanitizes them safely—no need for harsh sprays or constant washing.

Kitchen: Where Cleanliness Counts Most

Kitchens may look clean, but harmful bacteria often linger on surfaces we touch every day.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Cabinet handles and light switches
  • Trash bins and recycling areas
  • High chairs and booster seats
  • Reusable grocery bags

Nursery and Kids' Rooms: Non-Toxic Peace of Mind

Babies and children are more vulnerable to environmental toxins, making chemical-free cleaning even more important in their spaces.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Cribs, changing tables, and nursery chairs
  • Stuffed animals and plush toys: Steam kills germs without risking bleach or detergent residues.
  • Play mats and floors: A gentle steam sweep eliminates bacteria while remaining safe for little hands and feet.

Bedroom: Rest Easy With a Healthier Sleep Space

We spend nearly a third of our lives in bed—make sure it’s a clean space.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Mattresses and pillows: Steam sanitizes without chemicals, helping reduce allergens like dust mites and mold.
  • Bedding and sheets: Freshen between washes.
  • Closet contents: Use steam to sanitize clothing while removing wrinkles and odors.

Bathroom: A Hidden Hotspot for Germs

Though often cleaned with disinfectants, bathrooms benefit from non-toxic steam cleaning too.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Toilet seat and flush handles
  • Shower curtains and tile grout
  • Toothbrush holders and soap dishes

Entryway and Utility Rooms: The Front Line of Filth

These high-traffic areas track in bacteria, pollen, and other outdoor pollutants.

Steam Cleaning Targets:

  • Shoes and backpacks
  • Door handles and knobs
  • Laundry baskets and hampers
