General Tips:
- Use vinegar on stainless sinks and hard water spots.
- Vacuum your house once a week for every person and twice
a week for every animal. --Yes 2 pets and 2 adults you should
only take Sundays off.
- If one of your lovely pets decides to leave you with a
mess as you are walking out the door just place a cold towel
over it until you return from work ... most of the stain should
be gone when you return from work.
Tips on how to keep your microwave clean:
- Do not spray cleaning solution directly into the microwave.
Spray it on a cloth or use paper towels. You can also try
baking soda. Sprinkle a bit on the microwave bottom, then
scrub the interior with a nice, damp cloth (dampen with warm
water). This method won't scratch the surface.
- To remove microwave odors, combine a cup of warm water
with a half-cup of lemon juice (or fresh lemon slices) in
a glass bowl. Heat to boiling in the microwave and remain
boiling for three minutes. Keep the door closed afterward
for 30 minutes. Remove the bowl and wipe it clean with paper
towels. The microwave will be sparkling clean and will smell
wonderful, too.
- Another trick to remove odors is to add a half-cup of water
and an equal amount of vanilla extract in a small bowl. Heat
to boiling in the microwave, shut off, and don't open the microwave
door for 12 hours or overnight.
