Probably olive would be okay, we don't have it here though.. peach has been sprayed, so that's a no-no too.. So I wish to learn more about this, and then I will try!! I will report when I try it!! :)<BR/><BR/>I am not sure what is better, electric or ordinary toothbrush - electric does use electricity (emissions) but you throw away a whole toothbrush if it's an ordinary one.. <BR/>There are ordinary toothbrushes with replaceable heads too.. <BR/>But I was really excited about these bio-sticks, as you need no plastics at all!!Laylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00832545657562957725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236788721118809859.post-91261307773971833242009-02-09T10:57:00.000-08:002009-02-09T10:57:00.000-08:00Here I am, Layla!!! Welcome in the blogosphere! I ...Here I am, Layla!!! <BR/>Welcome in the blogosphere! <BR/>I wish you a great success with your experiments! :) <BR/><BR/>I've never seen these sticks! This is a good alternative to the normal toothbrush but how many sticks do you think one could need, for example in a month? One a day? And is the single packaging compostable or recyclable? Do you think you'll try them?<BR/><BR/>I am using an electric rechargeable toothbrush, and I am still in doubt if it is the greener solution to a simple plastic one. I must throw in the landfill a little piece of plastic mixed to iron anyway, and I consume energy too... so, am I doing the right thing? I fear not! <BR/><BR/>How's hard the way to Zero Waste to us, "garblogger", but it totally worth! <BR/>;Dandadandaworldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03539992452778511972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236788721118809859.post-48170656423834077772009-02-08T10:41:00.000-08:002009-02-08T10:41:00.000-08:00Yeah, these are sort of similar - apparently both ...Yeah, these are sort of similar - apparently both neem tree or arak tree or other trees can be used!! :)<BR/><BR/>Still experimenting with the blog, and maybe I'll have a more 'official one' later on, but thought I'd document stuff as I go along.. :)<BR/>/Yes, those comments on your site & elsewhere were getting a bit lengthy lol :)/<BR/><BR/>Have you ever tried the neem twigs or such? :)Laylahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00832545657562957725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4236788721118809859.post-74778037064454779512009-02-08T09:01:00.000-08:002009-02-08T09:01:00.000-08:00Oooo, now look who I found in the blogosphere!
