When it comes to cleaning the home, many people can become overwhelmed and frustrated with just the thought of it. This causes them to dread the task and to put it off longer, making the job even harder than it was to start with. Follow these tips for cleaning your home in a more organized way which makes it quicker and easier.
CLEANING THE KITCHEN
- Along with the dishwashing detergent add 2-4 tablespoons of vinegar to remove the grease in the utensil. Getting rid of hard water and lime that’s stuck in your tea pot is not easy but you can remove these by adding two cups of vinegar and bring it to boil. Apply the same principle to coffee makers, casserole, and other metal containers.
- You will be using a lot of sponge when you clean the counter, the sink and everything else therefore accumulating more and more bacteria in your smelly sponge. To disinfect, wash it thoroughly and put it in a microwave for a few minutes to kill the bacteria. Let cool and wash it thoroughly again.
CLEANING THE BATHROOM
- Take out and wash shower curtains, mats and the like with 3 cups of vinegar and detergent soap.
- Scrub the floor, walls, bath tub using a foamy scrub. The same applies to the toilet seat (but use another scrub). Pour some baking powder (or lemon juice) and leave on for a few minutes. Rinse thoroughly with a clean and dry cloth.
CLEANING THE LIVING ROOM
- You need to clean your carpet by vacuuming it and removing the stains using a stain remover ideal for that certain material or you can also have it dry cleaned.
- In washing jalousies, glass windows and glass sliding doors use a crumpled newspaper dipped in water and vinegar solution to wash and disinfect. Dry with a newspaper or dry cloth. Use wood wax to clean wooden furniture while retaining their shine.
There are a lot of other ways to clean the house. But do remember to take turns and schedule who will clean the house but if youre so busy hire someone who will clean at least once or twice a month.

Life is much easier at home when you know where things are and the house smells and looks good. House cleaning you do not dread is done by remaining organized.
