I have done my fair share of cleaning over time and I know
the value of good tools and tips.
Having said that I am happy to share with you a
little list
of 5 tips and tricks
that I have found to be super helpful to me.
Plastic
bags to stop the sink leaking
I don’t know about you, but it is
so annoying when your sink plugs start giving out and pretty soon you have no
water left in the sink to wash with. One day I needed a quick fix and thought I’d
cut up a plastic bag and use it as an extra seal between the plug and drain. It
works better than anything else I've tried, including buying a new plug.
Eucalyptus
spray takes out oil stains
Oil stains are one of the hardest
stains that I have had to try and get out of clothes and up until just recently
I had almost given up on the possibility of getting them out. I tried different
stain removers, some being very time consuming but still giving poor results. One
day my sister suggested I try Eucalyptus spray to get out my oil stains. I sprayed
it on the clothes straight away and put it in the wash. When it came out I was so surprised,
I couldn't see where the stain had been. I found out later that Eucalyptus has
been a well know great oil stain remover.
Magic
white sponges clean everything
You may have never heard of magic
white sponges before but I must say they are one of my favourite cleaning tools.
They work very similar to micro fibre clothes but are even better for getting
marks of walls, cleaning smooth surfaces like the bath tub, sink, glass, shower
screen, splash back, fridge and the list goes on. It’s hard to describe how
easy it is to clean with them and I hope you go out and buy yourself some and
give them a try so you will know first-hand how great they are. P.S If you like
them go on Ebay to cheaply buy them bulk. And, you don’t need to use any soap when you
clean with them.
Dust
your skirting and house with a cobweb duster
Being a cleaner I know the value
of a good tool. I some times have to quickly dust an entire house in a short
time and when this happens you start thinking up ideas on how to make life
easier. I was cobwebbing one day and thought why not use it to dust the
skirtings as well. From then on I now dust all my skirtings, curtain rails and
doorways with my cobwebber. Go for it, see what a great tool the old cobwebber
is!
