I normally don’t re-post news or press releases but found this one to be quite interesting. Hope it helps as we all prepare to do spring cleaning.
Spring cleaning tips for dirty dilemmas
Fast and simple solutions
It’s spring and the experts at Molly Maid come to the rescue with some fast and easy tips to make your house shine.
* For grease stains on your carpet, pour a generous amount of baking soda or cornstarch over the grease and brush lightly over the soiled area. Leave on overnight and vacuum the next day.
* A wad of chewing gum on your carpet comes off with ice. Freeze the chewing gum and when it becomes brittle, shatter it and vacuum up the broken pieces.
* For cleaning stubborn spots, exfoliating gloves are helpful when surfaces need scouring and rubbing to remove caked on dirt.
* Don’t throw out an old toothbrush or denture brush. They come in handy for cleaning around sink faucets and grout.
* To dust blinds, wear a clean pair of cotton gloves or an old sock, and run your fingers along each slat to pick up dust as you go.
* Keep kids’ plastic toys clean. Wash them in warm, soapy water.
* Put salt on spills while the oven is hot. When cool, brush off the spill and clean up anything that remains with a damp cloth.
* Always tidy up before any major clean. Take dirty dishes to the kitchen, pick up toys and put newspapers in the recycling bin.

Thanks for the tips. I didn’t know about the chewing gum trick. I will definitely try it. Thanks!
Another spring cleaning tip might be to re color grout with a grout colorant such as Grout Revive. This can be a very quick and easy way to either refresh your current color grout or change grout color entirely. It also seals your grout color and protects your grout color. Hope this tip helps
