It sometimes takes a lot of effort and time to have a perfect house.
Who hasn't dreamed of having secret tips and tricks for cleaning quickly and without getting tired?
That's why we've selected the 15 best tips to become a housewife in a flash.
Each of these tips will save you valuable time and money. Watch:
1. You don't need expensive chemicals to clean your washing machine. Just use regular white vinegar. At less than 50 cents a litre, you'll quickly love it. Pour the white vinegar into the detergent compartment and run a long programme. Your washing machine will shine and be sanitized. Don't want to do an empty wash? So, take the opportunity to put the tea towels in the washing machine, for example.
2. Did you know that adding white vinegar can boost the action of your cleaning products? Add a little to the laundry (about a third of the amount of powder). Clothes will be cleaned more efficiently. This is especially true for colorful clothes. And in addition, the white vinegar acts as a fabric softener.
3. Have you noticed that certain types of fabric are real magnets for cat and dog hair? Wash them with white vinegar, and the hairs will never cling again.
4. How do you clean the tub without lifting a finger? Simple! First heat some white vinegar, but don't boil it. Mix in a spray bottle the vinegar with as much liquid soap. Do not shake the bottle - just gently stir the 2 liquids to mix. Then, spray the solution in the bathtub, leave to act for 30 minutes, then wipe with a sponge. The result will be much better than if you used expensive commercial products.
5. I don't know if you've tried this before, but it's a hassle to clean window grooves. Fortunately, there is a simple trick to save time and have an impeccable result. Sprinkle baking soda on hard-to-reach areas, especially the corners. Then add a little white vinegar to make it foam. Leave to act for 10 to 15 minutes. This will disintegrate the grime and rust embedded in the window tracks. When the time is up, just wipe the grooves with a clean cloth.
6. All parents know that children's toys are scattered all over the house... The problem is that toys easily catch dust and are no longer very clean for children. So sometimes you have to wash them to give them a good clean. Luckily, there's a neat trick to make this task quick to do. To do this, put all the toys in a cleaning net and put them in the washing machine.
7. Have you noticed that children love permanent or stubborn markers? And of course, they gratify our walls. Getting rid of these marks is a real struggle that wastes a lot of time. Fortunately, there are tricks to remove these traces of markers effortlessly. To remove a permanent marker stain from the floor or table, put toothpaste on a damp cloth, preferably microfiber, and wipe it over the stain.
8. The marker can also be easily removed using hair spray or deodorant spray. Simply spray them on the area to be treated and rinse with water.
9. Another method is to use baking soda and a sponge. Sprinkle baking soda on the sponge, rub the area to be cleaned and rinse with water. Now your walls should be clean, until your artist decides to create a new masterpiece!
10. When you drop a bottle of nail polish, it's double jeopardy:you lose your favorite shade and you get a stain that's practically impossible to remove. Fortunately, there are effective tricks to get rid of it. Before the varnish has had time to dry, apply nail polish remover on it and let it act for 1 min. Then rub the stain with a paper towel and remove what remains with a rubber eraser.
11. If you don't have a nail polish remover on hand, don't panic! Here is a trick that works really well to make nail polish disappear easily. All you need is powdered sugar. Sprinkle the stain with it and let the sugar soak up the polish. All that's left is to wipe the stain away.
12. If the polish is already dry, apply hairspray to it and blot with warm soapy water. Did the nail polish get on the carpet? Use this other simple trick.
13. With this trick, you can clean your microwave in 5 minutes flat. Cut a lemon in half, place it in a cup and add cinnamon. Put the mug in the microwave and microwave for 5-10 min on the lowest power. Lemon cleans and disinfects, and cinnamon eliminates unpleasant odors. Now it's clean and it smells good too!
14. To avoid spending too much time cleaning your kitchen, apply this simple and effective trick. Mix baking soda with vegetable oil until you get a thick paste. Apply the mixture to the grease or cooked fat and leave to act for 5 to 10 minutes. Then simply wipe clean with a cloth and soapy water.
15. The dust, it's very simple, barely wiped, it seems that it has already returned! Fortunately, there is a simple trick to prevent the dust from returning. To do this, apply a few drops of vegetable oil to a paper towel and wipe the dusty area with it. Then pass another clean paper towel. The surface of the furniture is covered with a light slippery layer that prevents dust from clinging. And what's more, it feeds your wooden furniture.
