Spring is tough in Michigan. The weather is finally becoming bright and sunny (or at least sunnier) after a long winter. In addition to flip floppy weather, we also begin to prepare for summer. That means a few rounds of Spring cleaning. By why work hard if you don’t have to? Here are a few simple cleaning hacks that will help you breeze through Spring cleaning. Goodbye cruddy mop, hello to sipping lemonade on the porch.
1. Clean the shower while you sleep
We are still at least a few years from each having our own robot maid, but for now just let all of your cleaning agents do the work. Fill a small plastic bag with white vinegar and secure it to your shower head and go to sleep. Voila! You will wake up in the morning to the cleaning shower head you have ever seen. You can even clean tough stains in sinks, shower tiles, and toilets with a similar method.
2. Make use of your tub
It never occurs to many people that they can wash things other than people in bath tubs. You can clean oven racks, blinds, and just about anything that needs to soak to get clean. For the really grimy items just throw in some vinegar and dish soap then sit back and relax. And be sure to clean the tub when you are all done using it! While your stuff is soaking, now might be a good time to check your basement for flooding or water damage. Just sayin’.
