Make Your Home Squeaky Clean, Quickly
As we’ve mentioned before, there are a lot of things we’d rather do than clean now that spring is here. But no one can avoid chores forever, so we’re counting on YourDailyThread to help us get our homes squeaky clean, quickly:
Sunny days, crisp air, and fragrant blossoms of spring have arrived. It’s time to clean house! Don’t procrastinate or despair. Focus, people, focus. We can do this quickly.
Like a workout, focus on problem areas. A spilled drink; Fluffy’s accident; the sorely neglected baseboards; now is the time to zero in on the ugly spots you’ve been pretending aren’t there.
Hello, Sun. Tackling windows may seem daunting—especially if they are tall, but investing in a squeegee with an extension pole does wonders. Think: wiping your windshield at the gas station. Start at the top and work down. Wipe with a cloth. Repeat.
A clean sleep. Your mattress is due for a freshening up. Toss the cover in the wash and add one cup of white vinegar to deodorize. While the washing machine does its thing, pour baking soda into a sieve and dust the mattress surface evenly. This gradually draws out dirt, moisture, and odors. Leave it on and vacuum it off the next time you change sheets.
