DIY Home Cleaning Ideas

Eliminate the clutter to avoid constant frustration

For solving clutter menace, remember and follow the old saying, “a place for everything and everything in its place.” Group your clutter cleverly and arrange them in a proper way, like putting them in a decorative storage box or keeping a folder for bills and notes, or a bookcase for favourite reading materials, or a bowl for keys and wallets etc. This will impart a feeling of orderliness in your home. Consider such ideas and implement them to get rid of the clutter and chaos in your home, and life.

Clogged drains?

First, sprinkle two cups of baking soda into the drain followed by two cups of boiled vinegar. Allow the fizzing to stop and let the mixture stay in the drain for about five minutes. Flush with boiling water.

Some people also recommend pouring hot water and detergent down the drain for fat, oil and grease clogs that are common in household clogs.  

Getting prepared for cleaning your room

Ensure that you have all the right tools and products readily available with you before you start cleaning.

Let’s have a list:

• Microfibre cloths for dusting, cleaning and polishing.
• Cotton cloth for cleaning windows, mirrors, and glass screens of TV & computers.
• Mop for vacuuming hard floors.
• All purpose, good quality cleaner.
• Glass cleaner.
• Disinfectant.
• Fresh linens for bedrooms.

Cleaning procedure:

Firstly, tidy and deal with garbage and laundry. Secondly, start dusting and cleaning. And lastly, mop the floors.

Dusting:

For lowering the allergens and improving the air quality in your house, make it a habit to dust out your rooms regularly. Use a microfibre cloth and go left to right, and top to bottom in order to avoid spreading of dust all over the place.

How do you dust the slatted blinds, one slat at a time? You’re doing it wrong. The easy and efficient way is to close them one way (by pulling the string) and dust, then close them the other way and repeat the dusting. Clean the computer and TV screens, and the glass framed photos using glass cleaner sprayed to a fresh cotton cloth.

Mopping:

After dusting, go for mopping. While you do mopping, always start at the farthest corner of the room and move back toward the entrance door, so you’re always standing on a dry piece of floor without spoiling the already cleaned area. Rinse the mop frequently to ensure thorough cleaning.
