The Bathroom

Maintaining a clean and hygienic bathroom can feel like a never-ending task, with stubborn soap scum, unsightly toilet stains, and clogged drains adding to the cleaning woes. But fear not, with a few simple tricks, you can keep this area of your home sparkling clean.

• Using a soap dispensing dish brush to scrub your shower walls is a game changer. Not only does dish soap cut through soap scum with ease, but having a brush on hand in the shower allows you to quickly wash down the walls while you’re showering. This means you can avoid deep cleaning as frequently, saving you time and effort.
• It’s important to give your toilet a regular clean. However, try giving your toilet a swirl with your toilet brush every now and then – to prevent hard water stains from building up and keep your toilet bowl looking bright and sparkly.
• When it comes to clogged drains, baking soda is your best friend. Simply sprinkle some into the drain followed by hot water and let it sit for a while to dissolve and loosen any build up.

The Kitchen

When it comes to keeping your house clean, the kitchen can often be the most challenging area. With spills, stains, and food crumbs, it’s easy for your kitchen to quickly become a mess. Luckily, we’ve got some hacks to make cleaning your kitchen a breeze:

• Use citrus fruit like lemon and limes to clean your garbage disposal, as well as your cutting boards. The acidity of these fruits can help break down and remove bacteria and odours.
• Baking soda and vinegar are a dynamic duo when it comes to cleaning your sink (this works in the bathroom too). Sprinkle baking soda in your sink, then pour vinegar over it. Let the mixture sit for a few minutes before scrubbing and rinsing.
• Steam the microwave with a damp sponge to soften baked-on messes. This will make it easier to wipe away any stubborn stains or spills.
• Degrease your oven with lemon oil. Simply mix a few drops of lemon oil with hot water and use a cloth to wipe down your oven. The oil will help break down any grease or grime leaving your oven looking new.

The Bedroom & Living Room

The bedroom and living room can often be the most lived in spaces and the most difficult to keep tidy. Here are some hacks to make cleaning these areas easier:

• Use a pillowcase to clean ceiling fan blades without the dust falling everywhere. Simply slip the pillowcase over the blade and slide it off, trapping the dust inside.
• Invest in storage to keep small items like keys and wallets tidy and in an easy to find place. This will help you avoid clutter and make it easier to keep your space clean.
• Use a microfiber cloth to dust and wipe down surfaces, such as the Carpet Call Aqua Dry Chamois. It is super effective at trapping and removing dust, they can be washed and reused multiple times, making them an eco-friendly option for cleaning.
