The ornaments are packed away, the relatives have gone home and the last notes of "Auld Lang Syne" have faded — sure signs that you have survived yet another hectic holiday season. Your house, however, might need a little help to recover. Help your home shake off the old dust and grime and start the new year smelling fresh and looking good. Best of all, green is the theme of most housekeeping and cleaning services, with a focus on products that work well without damaging the environment.
