Mess is inevitable in a home, and it does not matter how often you clean it as it will get dirty again. It can make cleaning stubborn mess a pain, but luckily you do not have to do things the traditional way all the time. There are tons of cleaning hacks that can help you cut your cleaning time in half.
Here are five excellent cleaning tricks that you can try out for yourself.
A Clean Fan
An arduous chore is cleaning your fan, from dusting to washing and drying it. It is a chore that no one likes to do. However, your fan can collect a lot of dust and dirt quickly, so it requires regular cleaning, but it can be a messy task.
Luckily, you can use your pillowcase to efficiently and quickly clean it. Between your hands, sandwich a blade, then pull the pillowcase to you. It’ll easily slide the dust off your fan and stay on the pillow. Just make sure your washing machine and dryer are working efficiently. You may hire dryer repair services so you can use your pillowcase again.
Shower and Tub Cleaner
Are you tired of buying tons of store-bought and chemical-filled cleaners that still make you scrub your tub and shower for hours? Then it is time to skip those products and create your own cleaner.
Mix some dish soap and white vinegar in a spray bottle and liberally spray it around your shower and tub and let it sit. You will easily be able to scrub off all the nasty scum, mineral deposits, and grime from your shower in no time. However, be warned that the smell of vinegar can be powerful. Open your windows and use a fan to remove the fumes.
A Fresh Mattress
You do not have to lug your mattress to the cleaners to make it fresh again. You can refresh your mattress by mixing baking soda, and a few essential oil drops. Sprinkle the mixture all over your mattress and let it sit for around an hour. The powder mixture will absorb moisture and odor from your mattress’s surface. Once the time is up, grab a vacuum to clean up all the powder then you are done.
Steam Your Microwave
Your microwave can get a foul smell as splatters and spills occur inside of it. However, trying to scrub it off can take you hours and it may not be efficient. Luckily, you can easily steam clean your microwave to get a quick fix.
Soak a sponge in water then add several lemon essential oil drops then place it in your microwave for two minutes (make sure to turn off your microwave). The steam will loosen the food splatters, which means all you have to do is wipe your microwave when the timer rings.
Remove Gunk
If there is a nasty and thick gunk layer on your cabinets, you might wonder how to get rid of it. Thankfully, there is a quick solution for it. Mix baking soda and oil and use a sponge, cloth, or hands to apply it. You can wipe it off and see all the dirt get off of your cabinets.
You do not have to deal with the tough mess the tedious way any longer. Use any of these cleaning tricks to make cleaning a breeze.
