Tips for the perfect spring clean

Manifest What you Want, Whenever you Want....

Spring cleaning is a great way to get rid of your winter blues and clean up your home.

But it is understandable that a full, deep house cleaning can seem like an impossible task.

But if it is simplified into some easier, smaller steps, it can be a much more manageable undertaking.

Up and down cleaning

The most efficient way to get your house cleaner with less work is to clean up to down.

What this means is that you should begin cleaning things up high first, and work to the floor.

For example, when cleaning a closet, you should start with things on shelves and work your way down to the bottom of the closet.

Also, try working upstairs on the bedrooms and bathrooms that are generally less messy before you tackle the common living spaces downstairs.

Wintry Windows

Winter leaves its mark on your windows, allowing dirt, grime and dead bugs to build up in the space between the panes and the screen.

In the springtime, you'll want to open those windows to let in a fresh breeze and if you're faced with all that muck, it won't be a very pleasant experience. Cleaning windows can be a challenge, but with the right tools, it will be so easy. The easiest way to clean your windows is with a Mr Clean Magic Eraser.

It zaps the dirt and grime to away and it's easy to wipe some Windex  over over the window after to make your windows look like they're brand new.

Because of the gross nature of what you're cleaning and the chemicals you're using, it's a good idea to wear a pair of disposable rubber gloves.

Cleaning your floors

If you have pets or kids, you probably clean your floors once about once a week, so you may wonder why they need any special treatment during spring cleaning. To really give your floors a deep clean, you'll need to do things a little differently. Tile

Two mixtures that really clean tile and grout well when used with a mop are either vinegar/water/lemon juice or bleach/water.

Both work exceptionally well when you mop vigorously; make sure you choose based on which smell you mind the least.

Carpet

If you want to know that your carpets are squeaky clean, professional steam cleaning is really the only option that is available.

It may seem like an expensive undertaking, but most local steamers have great deals in the springtime – they'll do anywhere from three to six rooms for a bundle price. You'll end up saving a lot of money and your home will be exceptionally clean.

The cleaning takes several hours and you can't walk on the carpets until they dry, so plan accordingly.

Spring cleaning has never been so easy, and now you can get started completely stress-free, so enjoy!
