10 House Cleaning Tips & Tricks for Faster Cleaning
House cleaning is an unavoidable chore that you have to face
every single day of your life. While Singapore is well known
worldwide for its impeccable cleanliness, let’s just face
it-cleaning is not easy and it wastes time. For most people,
there is even that natural laziness that always prevents you
from getting started. However, there are some few life saver
tips hat you can apply on your cleaning routine to reduce
the amount of time that you normally take. These tips and
tricks not only allow you clean much faster, but also with a
more improved efficiency. With that, here are 10 useful
house cleaning tips and tricks.
Make a good plan
In the current busy world, it is advisable to first decide
on how much time you have and how clean you want your house
to be. From that, you can come up with a cleaning schedule
that will enable you do a bit of work every day. Be very
honest when it comes to how much time you have and what you
can do. You should not over-commit yourself into thinking
you will be able to complete the whole apartment in one
session when you can’t. If possible, try to stick and focus
on just one space in your home at a time.
Get the Right Tools
Before you begin your cleaning, ensure that you have all
your cleaning tools ready and in one place. Whether it is a
bucket or caddy, have everything that you will need inside
it to get the job done easier. As we all know, vinegar and
baking soda will definitely leave all your surfaces looking
shiny and all new. However, there are a few places where
these solutions won’t get the job done much faster. If you
have some money to spare for your cleaning, you can get some
additional cleaning tools that will focus more on this
surfaces and make all your cleaning as easy as breathing.
Get clutter out of your way
One of the best tricks to make your house look clean with
less effort when you have a dust free floor is de-cluttering
your house. Even with a dustless floor, your house may still
look very untidy with papers and clothes lying all over.
This is very helpful especially during emergency cleaning
like when you have unexpected guests coming over. Before you
embark on your cleaning schedule, it is also important to go
through your room(s) and put aside all the clutter.
Use the dishwasher
Apart from cleaning dishes, you can also use your dishwasher
to clean everything that is dishwasher safe. Some of the
things that you can clean there include:
• Stove ventilation
• Hood filters
• Light fixture covers
• Shoes
• Baseball caps
Don’t forget to regularly clean your dishwasher after using
it by just running a Kool Aid cleaning cycle.
Use your Bathtub to clean larger things
Besides cleaning people, the bath tab is also a very good
place to clean every other large household item that can’t
fit in the dishwasher. You can as well use it to clean other
things that require soaking like oven racks and plastic toys
before rinsing off. After that, you can go ahead and clean
your bath tub using a mixture of vinegar and soap in a dish
wand.
Use rubber to remove pet hair from furniture and carpet
Regardless of how effective your home vacuum cleaner can
perform house cleaning, it will always leave some bits of
pet hair behind. The most effective way to remove pet hairs
is by using rubber gloves. This is done by taking rubber
gloves or rubber flip flops and running them over surfaces
like carpets and furniture. You will only need water to
rinse off the stuck pet hairs from the gloves.
Consider microfiber-cloths for dust
Always think beyond your classic feather duster when it
comes to dusting. This is because dusters clean by just
moving dust from one place to another which ends up sending
some of it in to the air and onto other surfaces. This is
why it is better to use a microfiber cloth or pillow case
which, unlike dusters, traps the dust particles inside their
fibres. This helps you to remove dust exhaustively as it
will not be flying all over.
Focus more on the sinks and toilets
To effectively clean your sinks and toilets and make them
look brand new again, all you need is distilled white
vinegar. Start by spraying the cleaner on the kitchen sink
followed by the bathroom sinks and finish with the toilets.
After spraying, let the cleaner sit for a few minutes to
completely dissolve all the dirt and stains. After that, you
can now start scrubbing.
Spray your windows with black tea
Mirrors are prone to getting gross due to dust and other
things like toothpaste and makeup settling on them. When you
use paper towels sprayed with water or cleaning solutions to
clean them, there is a blotchy and streaky shine that is
left behind. The most effective way to clean your mirrors is
by brewing about 3 bags of very strong tea and using it to
spray your mirrors. Another method is mixing 4 tablespoons
of lemon juice with half gallon water.
Don’t forget to wash all your cleaning tools
One of the most important parts of house cleaning that is
often overlooked is washing the cleaning tools. To maintain
your tools for longer and keep them always looking ready for
your next cleaning, you need to scrupulously wash them after
each and every use. As a matter of fact, using a vacuum with
a full bag or a dirty mop will only make you spend more time
on your cleaning.
Conclusion
House cleaning should not be a daunting process anymore. You
only need to come up with a good cleaning schedule and
everything else will fall into place. By following these
simple tips and tricks, you will be able to clean up your
home much faster without causing a strain on your wallet. If
