We are not the generation that would take out a vacuum cleaner to clean our homes. Yet we want to keep everything spic and span. Quick little tricks that dont take too much time and patience is what we need. To manage our household chores better, we're bringing you 15 cleaning hacks that will make our work easier. You can thank us later!
1. Remove water rings on furniture with a blow dryer.
Personally, I think water rings are one of the most stubborn marks and dont go away easily. But a hair dryer is what helps. All you need to do is keep the blow dryer really close to the ring and itll disappear in no time.
2. Carpet stains can be removed easily with an iron.
Carpets and rugs need massive cleaning. What to do? Its simple, just spray a mix of 2 parts water and 1 part vinegar on the rug, and iron it for 30 seconds.
3. Use lemon to clean spots on metal and stainless steel faucets.
Have you ever wondered why most utensils detergents have lemon in them? Its because lemon has cleaning properties. Use sliced lemon and rub it on your metal or stainless steel faucets and youll see them shining. Lemon helps in removing rust as well.
4. Make your keyboard shine with an old tooth brush.
We dont think much about cleaning our keyboards, even though they are the dirtiest of things in our surroundings. Unplug the keyboard, dust its top and between its keys with an old toothbrush.
5. Remove stains on cloth with a chalk.
Chalk has superb absorbing qualities. All you have to do is rub the stain with chalk.
6. Acetone on a microfiber cloth will help you get rid of nail paint stains.
Pour some acetone on a microfiber cloth and apply it on the stain, and it should vanish within seconds.
7. Grate raw potato to clean your grater.
The grater is another tool that's hard to clean, especially, if you grated cheese with it, because that refuses to go away. We use potato because its hardness along with the oxalic acid helps in bidding goodbye to sticky cheese.
8. Coffee stains will vanish easily with the help of baking soda.
9. Make a ball of aluminium foil and add some soap to it for the the perfect cleaner for your baking dishes.
We all love crumbling our aluminium foil and thats what we have to do here. Make that ball, add some soap cleaner and scrub like a boss.
10. Coca Cola works well with oil stains too.
Yup, in fact, Coca Cola is considered great at restoring stained carpets, clothes, curtains and more.
11. Toothpaste can make your old sneakers look like a new pair.
Toothpaste is a magical ingredient. It can help you clean a lot of things including your cars headlights and a lot more. Toothpaste helps remove pimples too, but lets leave that for another story.
12. Toothpaste can also help make your engagement ring shine
13. How to clean a hair brush? Use your shampoo.
Dip it in shampoo for a while. Thats it.
14. Use a razor to clean the paint on your clothes.
15. Clean your earpods with a little amount of warm liquid or a dry tooth brush.
Earpods need to be cleaned. Dont believe people if they tell you otherwise. Just put some warm water on your finger tip, yes thats what we mean by little and rub the ear buds. You could use rubbing alcohol as well, although rubbing with a dry brush will do the job too.
