Here are 18 very simple tips to make big cleaning a pleasure rather than a chore.
1 – Collect hair without difficulty
Volatile, catchy, hair is the scourge of cleaning. To make your life easier, use a squeegee with a rubber tip. More effective than brooming or vacuuming.
2 – Dry the inside of your shoes effectively
Unlike your clothes, you cannot turn your wet shoes inside out to dry the inside. Use newspaper balled up in your shoes to absorb all the moisture inside.
3 – Give your sofa a second life
3 steps: spray the surface with household alcohol, rub with a new sponge, then use a stiff brush. Like new!
4 – Clean a pepper or coffee grinder
It’s hard to figure out how to clean these machines. However, a simple spoonful of baking soda and a grinder will be enough to scrub them.
5 – Clean your oven with complete peace of mind
For this tip use a bowl of ammonia placed on the oven rack when cold and turned off. Leave to act for a few hours, then go over the surface with a sponge.
6 – Erase grease stains on the fabric
A grease stain on your sweater looks bad. Rub it with white chalk, then a few minutes later wipe with a damp cloth.
