Sweeping, picking up, sweeping, scrubbing… cleaning the floor can easily be like a rather intense gymnastics session! And between two actions where our foreheads bead with sweat, we start to hope that there are tips to make life easier when carrying out these tasks. We reassure you: this is the case! Here are 9 to inspire you during your next floor cleaning session.
1) How to fill the bucket for mopping with an impractical tap? With a stupid pool fry!
For this, you must have those which are pierced in their center.
And the shovel does the job just as well!
2) Looking for a storage idea to no longer have household tools in your hands?
Opt for a hook that sticks well and self-locking ties and stick it all on a door.
3) No accessory for vacuuming certain corners? Use a cardboard roll folded over to form a slit.
We can’t do any better at removing dirt stuck around the patio door.
4) If you have lost a small item somewhere on the floor, cover the vacuum hose with a nylon cloth, secure with a rubber band and vacuum it up.
The small object in question will thus be recovered even if you have difficulty spotting it, without the risk of it being swallowed.
5) There are techniques to combat odors after vacuuming!
You can swallow beads to scent linen or cinnamon. You can also put some directly in the vacuum cleaner bag.
6) The vacuum cleaner and broom can’t pick up everything, latex gloves can help!
They particularly hold hair and a certain amount of dirt very well. You can test this on the sofa, a carpet or even unreachable corners.
7) Rather than spending money on floor wipes, use a soft sock.
Simply clean it or just rinse it and it is reusable.
8) To make your wooden floor shine, brew black tea in the bucket filled with hot water and use this to mop the floor.
9) To avoid having to sweep the brush 15 times to pick up the last bit of dirt, wet the shovel.
This way, small dust will cling to it and no more small line of dirt that is impossible to pick up in one go.
