Use Lemon Juice To Clean Your Microwave
Lemons can help clean your microwave if it has stains and residue buildup. Mix one cup of water, two spoons of lemon juice, and one cup of vinegar in a bowl. Put the bowl in the center of the microwave and set it high for two minutes. Then, wipe down with a cloth.
Clean Stainless Steel Sink With Baking Soda
First, wash your sink with water, spray baking soda, and scrub it with a sponge. Add salt to the baking soda if you need more heavy scrubbing power.
Wax Your Stovetop
Apply a thin layer of car wax after scrubbing the grime off your stovetop, and then buff it off with a clean towel. It will wipe off future spills and also make it look shiny and new.
Pots And Pans
Add water and dish liquid to your cookware and let it simmer on the stove to soften the burned-on residue. Use a scrub sponge to remove any remaining stuck pieces. You can also massage ketchup sauce over the surface of the pot and add a pinch of salt to your polish if you have exceptionally stubborn spots.
Clean Your Dishwasher
Place a cup of vinegar on the top and run the hot water cycle in your dishwasher. Then, sprinkle baking soda in a cup around the bottom and run it through a complete hot water cycle.
Common Areas
Use Newspaper To Clean Dirty Mirrors And Windows
Mix one-fourth cup of white vinegar, two teaspoons of liquid soap, and two cups of water into a spray bottle. Spray on the glass and scrub it with newspaper. For a streak-free window or mirror, the ink acts as a mild abrasive, and for that, you can use the newspaper.
Steam Furniture
Use a hot steamer to clean the couch and lounge chair. A lounge or couch chair exposes the fabric to sweat, heat, and flaked-off skin. These are the main elements that dust mites grow on.Â
Clean Your Washer And Dryer
Remove mineral and detergent residues from the washer or dryer by running two cups of white vinegar in a complete hot water washing cycle without detergent. Repeat if your washer is still dirty. Scrub the lint tray with a brush, and then clean your dryer vent, hoses, and vent pipe.
Remove Pet Hair From The Carpet With A Squeegee
Take a shower, squeegee, and run it over your carpets to remove pet hair from the carpets in your house. It will bunch all the hairs up into a ball, so you can easily remove them.
