Spring Cleaning Hacks

clean

In the Kitchen 

Clean stains from the inside of your empty dishwasher by filling the detergent compartment with a packet of Lemonade Kool-Aid and run on normal cycle.

In the Bathroom

Clean your toilet with almost no effort using Alka Seltzer. Drop two tablets in and leave for 5-15 minutes, depending on how long it takes them to dissolve. Swirl your brush, and you’re done!

In the Office

Run the sticky edge of a Post-it Note in between keyboard keys to pick up crumbs, dust and hair.

In the Bedroom

Liberally sprinkle baking soda on your mattress and let sit (24 hours is ideal) to absorb odors. Vacuum up using the upholstery tool and enjoy a refreshed sleep.

In the Living Room

Keep your baseboards clean by running a dryer sheet over them to help repel hair and dust.

Outdoors

Clean your grill using vinegar and aluminum foil. Start by heating up your grill and then spraying white vinegar on the grates to loosen residue. Finish up by scrubbing grates with a crumbled ball of aluminum foil.
