As we slowly roll out of the winter months, spring is coming on like gangbusters. You know what that means. Yep, time to do some spring cleaning. Here are some tips to help. 1. Cleaning Shower Door Grooves and Tracks - Much like cleaning soap scum off the doors themselves, you can also use white vinegar for the tracks. To get the best results, you will need to sacrifice a tooth brush. Get in there and really scrub. 2. Cleaning Shower Heads - Cleaning shower heads is a necessary task and fairly easy. Take the shower head off. Place it in a bowl with equal mixes of hot water and white vinegar. Leave it for an hour or so and then rinse it thoroughly. 3. Dirty Piano Keys If you tickle the ivories, they inevitably will get dirty. Dab them with a towel soaked in lemon juice. It will sound terrible, but they will be clean. 4. Gum in Carpet Gum is great for chewing, but a nightmare if gets onto your carpet. To get it out, apply ice cubes until it is brittle. Break it off and remove. To get the remnants out, apply a basic spot remover. 5. Cleaning Gloves When you are cleaning, gloves are critical. By definition, you are usually using abrasive chemicals to scrub off dirt, grime, mold and other unsavory things. This can absolutely destroy your hands, so make sure to protect them! 6. Repair Carpet Burns If you have burn spots in your carpet, dont fret unless they are big. Walk around your house and pull out small tuffs of carpet from other areas till you have enough material. Now glue it into the burn area and trim as necessary. 7. Allergies and Cleaning If you have allergies, take your medication before cleaning your place. Cleaning is primarily about the removal of dirt and dust. 8. Remove Coffee China Stains China is delicate and can stain easily, particularly when coffee is involved. To remove it, mix one teaspoon of white vinegar and cold water. Dab appropriately. 9. Removing Your Stickers When it is time to get rid of those stickers, soak them in vegetable oil. Wait for 15 minutes and then carefully scrape off. Mayonnaise also does the trick. 10. Storing Cleaning Products Cleaning products are a bit dangerous around flames or too much heat. Store them in low, cool areas such as the bottom of a closet or under the sink. A thorough cleaning of your house should happen at least a couple of times a year. You might groan at the idea, but you will feel much better when it is completed.
