Most cleaning methods we have adopted from our parents or loved ones. Very often we do not think about whether what we are doing is correct and above all effective. Your cleaning methods can be really wrong.
To make your home even cleaner in an efficient and easy way, see what are the wrong cleaning methods that most of us have used all our lives!
The cutting boards
Dishwasher is not particularly effective when it comes to cutting boards. Bacteria and dirt that collects in the cracks and crevices can resist the soap and the sponge.
That's why it's better to use lemon and s alt. These two aggressive ingredients will penetrate deep into the crevices and remove the accumulated bacteria. Sprinkle s alt liberally all over the board, then rub the surface thoroughly with a slice of lemon.
Oven
The oven is so hard to clean and it gets dirty so easily. It has to be cleaned almost after every cooking. Stop scrubbing with aggressive detergents until you pass out. There is an easier way to clean the oven.
Make a paste of water and baking soda. Coat the entire inner surface with it and leave it on for some time. You can leave it on all night. Then wipe with a wet cloth thoroughly. If necessary, spray with apple cider vinegar. It will contribute to the breakdown of accumulated and burnt fat.
Dried dirt and scum on the trays after baking
You have baked some kind of pastry or dish and of course there are a lot of solid residues on the tray. They are difficult to remove with soap or dish detergent.
So make a mixture of ΒΌ cup of baking soda and enough hydrogen peroxide to make a paste. Add the hydrogen peroxide a little at a time until you reach the right consistency. Then clean the dishes and trays with the paste. They will shine like new!
Mattress
The mattress is the place where many microscopic bacteria and mites, invisible to the naked eye, gather. Cleaning it is not very easy.
To deworm and clean it sprinkle baking soda. Let it work for a while. After a few hours, vacuum thoroughly to remove soda ash and dead microorganisms.
Scaling on shower head
Metal surfaces in the bathroom are easily oxidized and scale accumulates. Instead of scrubbing with preparations that damage the skin of the hands and affect the respiratory tract, clean the shower and faucets easily and naturally.
Pour apple cider vinegar into a plastic bag. Tie it around the shower head and leave it like that for about an hour. Then take it off and wipe it with a wet cloth. The metal surface will shine beyond recognition.
Grater
The grater is a difficult appliance to clean, especially after grating cheese, yellow cheese and other soft and sticky products.
To clean it easily after the cheese, grate a raw potato. The oxalic acid in it will easily remove sticky and greasy residue.
Microwave
The microwave gets dirty easily, especially if the food you reheat in it splatters its walls. To clean them easily, place a cup of water and vinegar in the microwave. Leave it on for 3 minutes and then wipe with a soft cloth. It's easy and takes a few minutes.
Toothbrush
It is true that the toothbrush needs to be changed often, but before you rush to throw it away after 4 weeks of use, extend its life.
Clean the toothbrush by regularly dipping it in a glass of apple cider vinegar. Leave it like that for the night. This will kill the germs on it.
