With experience in Domestic & Commercial cleaning we are always looking for ways to improve cleaning and we thought it would be useful to share some helpful cleaning tips with you...
- Zoflora is proven to kill corona virus. We recommend using a spray bottle, mixed with cooled boiling water with a 1:40 dilution, to spray in the air of rooms & surfaces. It is known that touchpoints lasts for 72 hours outside the body, so we would recommend practising this every 2-3 days.
- Keep door handles, light switches etc sterile by using a mix of zoflora & water in a squirty bottle, simply squirt & wipe! Remember not to use on wood though...
- To freshen your microwave - heat a cup of water, with a wedge of lemon in it
- Keep your sponges tip top clean by putting them in the dishwasher, or you can pop them in the microwave for 1 minute (squeeze them out first though!)
- Use an old toothbrush for those awkward spots on the toilet seat & kitchen cupboard door corners
- Don't spend extra on washing machine cleaners - soda crystals do just as good a job! Just pop some inside the drum & drawer then run the hottest wash
- Vinegar has a fantastic range of uses, from removing chemical residues (oven cleaner) to cleaning dishes (add 1.5 cups to the bottom of your dishwasher for a sparkly wash), don’t forget you can also mix it with sugar (2 tbsp of each) to keep your flowers fresh for longer!
- Make your rooms smell fresh by adding a couple of drops of diffuser oil, or the fabulous zoflora (which has many excellent uses) to your vacuum cleaner bag
- Struggling with scale on your bathroom tiles? A scrubbing brush dipped in a bicarbonate of soda paste mix does wonders! An old toothbrush gets into those awkward places in the shower to get all areas sparkly ...
- Don’t forget about your mattress!...you can keep it clean by vacuuming & putting baking soda (don’t be shy on the quantity!), leave it for as long as possible (24 hours if poss) and then vacuum it off. Use a mattress protector too...
- Remove black shoe marks from wood work with a little bit of cream cleaner on a soft cloth and gently rub
- Try using an old, clean sock over your hand when cleaning blinds - it’s much quicker & easier to get into the tricky places
- Kilrock descaler is amazing for taps etc, there is a brush applicator so it stays put!
