A tip for cleaning the heater vent is to unscrew it from the wall and wash it in the sink or tub with a scrub brush. It's much faster. 🙂

To restore glass inserts on ovens, use an inexpensive plain, unscented shaving cream (Dollar General). Shake and spray a layer on door. NOTE!! IF you have a chemical free self cleaning oven, use a low tack tape to mask off the edges so it doesn't end up on metal surfaces and potentially void any warranties!! Spread a nice layer of shaving cream over glass. Wait 1 hour. Wipe surface clean. Extra heavy baked on residue may require 2-3 treatments. I have severe Odteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis and I had to put in minimal effort to remove the residue. My oven doors sparkle like brand new!!!

They leave a soapy film on your carpet that attracts dirt because it's sticky. SPOT SHOT is amazing and they even have pet formulations.

Hi Paulette H, I agree with you. I think before they get their license, degree, or whatever it is they get to be legally designing houses; they should have to work for a house cleaning company for a month or more. Once they've cleaned in a hundred different homes at least a few dozen times each; they might begin to understand the design flaws for everyday usage of the space. Might even lead to designing better fixtures around the house too. I can't believe after all of that cleaning any man would leave such a little space between the tub, toilet, and sink after that. At least leave enough room to get the head of a sponge mop all the way around the toilet. Would be nice if they designed ranges and refrigerators on wheels to easily move them to clean under and behind. And plastic solid surfaces to use under sinks incase they leak. Floor drains anywhere there's plumbing incase of pipe leaks, pipe failure, or overflowing toilets. And easy outdoor emergency shut off valves for the water. I could go on for hours on all of the design flaws in the average house. But it might be easier to raise our daughters to take over architecture, and contracting jobs, with the purpose in mind of making it easier to clean and take care of, instead of maintaining the status quo that centuries of men have left us. That's my opinion, and I'm sticking to it. ☺️ ✌️ 🖖 😷

I know it’s been mentioned already, but carpet powder seriously ruins vacuums after a while, plus you never really get it all out of the carpet. When we bought new carpet last year, they mentioned not using carpet powders, they said it was abrasive to the carpet fibers, made them fuzzy and wears the carpet out quicker. If your carpets smell not so fresh because of the doggy, carpet cleaners are pretty cheap now, get a small one they are easy to maneuver and can actually clean the smell out of carpet.

Don’t allow yourself to get overwhelmed first off. Make a chart Sunday thru Friday or something along those lines leaving at least 1 day free of no cleaning duties. Assign a couple cleaning duties to each day that way you can keep up with everything without feeling overwhelmed & you might consider doing laundry two times a wk so it doesn’t pile up and feel like your having to do so many loads at once. Definitely recommend having atleast one day a month that you do a deep clean/de-clutter or maybe even every other month. I use to be obsessed with cleaning spending 8hrs or more each day cleaning heck even spent a thousand + dollars on a ATP luminometer which basically u swab the surface of something put it in the meter and it will measure the hygiene/sanitary level of that item. If results were anything more than 2 I would clean again up to 10 is passing. But after years of professional help I’ve managed to cut back drastically. As far as cleaning products go I really love ZEP products but for the most part I try to use more natural ingredients. I love love love using a mixture of warm to hot distilled white vinegar & dawn dish soap for the bathroom will use bar keepers if needed. For the toilet & everything else I mix 3 tablespoons clorax bleach & 3TBSP fabuloso, 2TBSP dawn dish soap, 2-3 cups water I eye ball everything so exact measurements are hard to give. Also if you have a flat top stove with hard to get off burnt water marks you can spray easy off oven cleaner let it sit for an hour at minimum some like to leave over night I never do can also use the vinegar & dawn mixture and sprinkle baking soda on top let it sit come back using magic eraser. For mattresses even if you use a mattress cover it’s good to clean the mattress itself once a month or every other month spray mattress with a mixture of hot water & warm distilled white vinegar any area that need extra attention use a brush or towel with a tad bit of dawn and scrub the area then spray down area with the mixture again then use a generous amount of baking soda to cover mattress (no clumps) let sit until it completely dries which usually takes about 2hrs for my king size. Vacuum real good may have to go over it twice. Steam mops are the best unless you have hardwood floors.

Toilet bowl cleaner works great but you have to consider your pets and small kids who walk on the floors. Cats and dogs lick their paws and can get sick from the chemicals in toilet cleaner (which often has a skull head warning on it). Children have thin porous skin and chemicals can leach into their blood. I'm a health care worker and see alot of things related to chemicals in the hospital. Also my dog has bladder cancer and many yard products have poisons and toxins in them. It's a good idea to clean the dogs paws. Especially when your dog walks everywhere on your daily jaunt.

For those who don't know, hanging organizers on doors can eventually pull your door out of alignment. I support using them, but be careful to only put light items in them (ie: gloves and hats instead of shoes - or - spices and chips instead of peanut butter and cleaning products)

@@Lucinda_Jackson Hi, Me too. After my mother-in-law died, I'm looking at this odd brush thinking of dozens of places I could clean with that. Especially on laundry stains. Then my husband took the denture brush next time he washed the car, and it never came back to the cleaning supplies bucket. Found more at the Dollar Tree, and Walmart. Also found a pack of cleaning brushes at the Dollar Tree, with nylon bristles, wire bristles, etcetera (I forget the other ones). They're about the size of toothbrushes, and very handy. I have also learned to check the car washing buckets for any of my missing cleaning supplies; not that I'm cleaning my kitchen with them again, but that's where they disappeared to, just buy more. Take care. ☺️ ✌️ 🖖 😷

Also, check the thrift store for denture brushes. I found some new ones unopened for a fraction of the cost. Also, dog toothbrushes are cool for out of reach places. The bristles are not very stiff but are good for long sknny vases and glassware. Otherwise, this was a good video overall, and the added shortcuts from viewers were really helpful.

I've read that, with the alcohol/water/dish soap disinfectant mixture, it's best to wait 3-5 minutes after spraying it onto your surfaces before wiping it off, giving it a chance to do its thing and actually disinfect.

Oh sooo motivating!!!! I'm blaming my dirty house on the pollen but watching these to motivate me to start it up tomorrow! Your kitchen is to die for SO SHINY! Bravo! Thank you I really needed this motivation!

You had me at “ Cleaning Weapon” . Yeah! Cleaning Warrior! Unfortunately, I’m so lazy, I would have unscrewed the vent and washed it in the laundry sink and then replaced it. Worked a charm in the window nooks and crannies. Also around the loo seat base. When we were building our house I had the tiles put in with a grey/beige grouting. Saved SO much work! They are almost the same as yours, steam cleaned X 2 a week. Never having white grout again.

Vacuuming vents with brush attachment everytime I vacuum.

Excellent tips. Thank you 🙏🏻 We definitely wish to see part 2 and 3.

Cleaning between the stove and the counter- I just made a rule after I renovated to pull the range out once a month and clean all around it, and mop underneath it. No drips down the sides (because the debris you see stuck up top isn’t limited to just that- it drips down to the floor). Same with the refrigerator. It’s not as hard as it sounds- get help if it’s too heavy of course, but you’ll feel better knowing you’re cooking in a truly clean space.

I too pull my range out every few months but for the in between its very helpful and I sure notice a difference when I do pull I iut.

These are great! Especially the knife between the stove and countertop! We're all about making it easier for cleaning businesses to grow (we have an estimating software), and these tips I'm sure will help.

If you are kneeling on hard tile to scrub grout, it would be great to get yourself a good pair of kneepads to protect your knees - they carry them at the hardware store for workers who do flooring, etc. and have to kneel all the time. I used to have good knees and I wish I had taken better care of them early on.

Use your vacuum attachments on vents first and they won't be as dirty when you wipe them down. Love the idea of putting Refrigerator shelves in the tub. Awesome idea!

I put a cloth down when preparing food to catch bits and always work away from these pesky gaps at the side of the cooker. I either put the bits in the bin or out to the birds if it is something they might like. Using a knife is a good tip for vents. Is baking soda ok for your vacuum cleaner? I feel sure that it could clog the expensive appliance. I use my Henry which is my garage vacuum for such jobs. Then when most powder is removed I might use an inside vacuum. I have eight dogs and their noses are 40 times more sensitive than ours. I am therefore especially careful what I use around them, which includes any unnecessary fragrance. Same goes for candles. With a family your show rack ides is very useful. A Paw Plunger is useful too in helping to reduce the amount of allergens which sensitive dogs can bring in and bother then in the future. Just keep the item clean and use fresh water every time. Also keep the fur trimmed on the bottom of their paws. Your home looks lovely. Thank you for sharing.

Oh that’s cool!

Enjoyed your video. Two tips for you - after cleaning refrigerator shelves in the bathtub, please do not lay them on the floor to dry while you dry the others. No matter how clean your floor is, it's not clean enough for something that goes in the refrigerator. And same with wiping down your kitchen. After you wiped all counters, stove, etc., then you wiped the babies high chair trays. Maybe use a different cloth for their trays? It would be more sanitary.

Hahaha! My sister and I have been doing the knife trick with paper towels, didn't have disinfecting wipes, since the 70's. We used water and vinegar. Momma's cleaning products were vinegar, ammonia, bleach, hydrogen peroxide, baking soda, alcohol and lemons. We had tons of spray bottles labeled and that is what we still use today.

Great ideas. I also know from personal experience in that the baking soda is a bad idea because when your carpet gets a little older it will hold on to the stains in the padding. The powder cakes up in the padding and you will regret it ..you can clean your carpet but give it a couple of weeks And the stains bleed back through

I use a dryer vent brush for beside the stove. Gives me a good 3-4 feet that I can go down. Also slides along the floor in that area to get out fallen crumbs. The vents can be easier cleaned with the brush attachment on your vacuum. Loved all the tips and trick! Going to try them out tonight!

Buy some grout sealer and you'll only have to reseal about every 3-5 years. Never have to clean your grout again.

@inmyopinionwisdom4986

Yes, I AGREE WITH YOU! GROUT SEALER is an EXCELLENT DEFENSE which can help keep dirt and grime from becoming embedded in the grout, the SEALER also serves to protect the grout from deteriorating over the years, especially when keeping a regular schedule of "re-sealing" the grout as ongoing maintenance. Additionally, if you DON'T SEAL your grout, it will absorb water, bacteria, and stains. Adding a "grout sealer" protects your grout so it's water-resistant and will repel moisture and germs. Sealing the grout helps prolong the look, texture, and consistency of your grout and it prevents mildew and mold from growing! However, from a SANITARY viewpoint, if you desire to CLEAN/SANITIZE your grout that is good because you're actually cleaning the SURROUNDING AREAS (near the grout), as well. Especially where food preparation is taking place "AND" in bathrooms...especially shower stalls, floors, and the like! EXAMPLE: At my kid's school they have "grouted tiles" on the floor throughout the shower & locker room. The floors weren't being "properly" SANITIZED in SOME areas (due to down-sizing the custodial staff, etc.). Unfortunately, a handful of kids got an athlete's foot (fungus) from the tiles in the shower stall floors. Although, the grout in the showers and surrounding areas had SEALED GROUT done annually by "hired" district maintenance crews...the "sealed grout" didn't ENCOURAGE the spread of the fungus...however, the nearby tiles by the grout did!!! :-( Therefore, In my (personal) opinion, I think it is a good idea to do BOTH (SEAL & SANITIZE/CLEAN)! This is NOT defeating the purpose of SEALING THE GROUT...it's just making sure that ALL the "surrounding" areas, including the TILES (by the grout) are properly sanitized AND the very TOP surface of the GROUT is clean also. Those frisky tiny MICROORGANISMS pop up everywhere! Need a powerful microscope to SEE them all over the surfaces of stuff! :-O Personally, I like to RE-SEAL the grout "AND" STEAM my tiles, accordingly. ;-D
