faites verse presents things you've been
cleaning wrong number one cleaning
cutting boards cutting boards are more
difficult to clean than you might think
each time you cut on the board it
creates small Nicks and cuts where food
and bacteria can get trapped simply
washing with a sponge and dish liquid
isn't going to be enough to properly
clean a cutting board you would need a
half of a lemon and some kosher salt
sprinkle the kosher salt on the cutting
board and rub it into the cutting board
with a lemon this will help to dislodge
the particles left in the mix and cracks
and then wash the cutting board with
soap and water this will ensure that the
cutting board is clean after each years
number two
cleaning cookie sheets most cookie
sheets have caked on grease and food
after they come out of the oven this is
often too dirty that using soap and
water just won't be enough to get the
cookie sheet as clean as possible all
you need is some baking soda and some
hydrogen peroxide in a medium-sized bowl
combine one quarter cup of baking soda
and enough hydrogen peroxide to turn the
baking soda into a paste rub the paste
all over your baking pans and cookie
sheets and let it sit for a few hours
when you rinse the paste those sheets
should come out like new number three
cleaning the shower head it takes more
than just soap and water to thoroughly
clean a shower head a quick spray isn't
going to declawed anything that's stuck
inside to properly clean a shower head
you need a bottle of white vinegar a
plastic bag and an elastic band fill the
bag with the vinegar and slip the bag
over the shower head to keep it on use
that elastic band allow the bag to
remain on the shower head for at least
an hour when you remove the vinegar bag
wipe down the shower head with a wet
cloth number four cleaning your mattress
since you can't really throw your
mattress into the washing machine you
need to find some way to clean it well
fortunately you can clean your mattress
on your own and it's relatively simple
start by vacuuming the mattress to
remove any crumbs that might be left
behind
next sprinkle baking soda over the
entire mattress you'll need enough to
cover the entire thing allow the baking
soda to sit on the mattress for a few
hours and then vacuum it clean not only
will your mattress look cleaner it's
going to smell cleaner to number five
cleaning your cheese grater if you've
ever used a cheese grater you know how
hard it can be to get it clean putting
it in the dishwasher doesn't usually
clean it enough man scrubbing it with a
sponge that only results in our ripped
up sponge well if you want to get your
cheese grater cleaned easily clean it
after you use it right after you use it
once you've graded your cheese peel a
potato and start grinding that the
oxalic acid in the potato it'll work to
get the cheese off the grater easily the
best part is when you're done hey you've
got shredded potatoes to make hash
browns and some shredded cheese to put
on top win-win number six cleaning the
microwave it's not uncommon for food to
splatter in your microwave resulting in
a burnt on microwaved on mess rather
than scrubbing and scrubbing to get that
food off you can wipe it right off if
you know the right trick fill a bowl
with water and vinegar and cook it in
the microwave for about two minutes this
will create a great deal of steam in the
microwave making it possible to just
wipe the burnt on food clean it's the
easiest way to clean a microwave and
it's all natural number seven cleaning
your child's toys kids don't work very
hard at keeping toys clean or their
rooms or themselves now that I think
about it well at the end of the day
there could be food candy dirt stuck all
over your child's toys and that can be
very unsanitary well rather than
hand-washing each toy individually which
can be a hassle and let's face it
extremely time-consuming put them all in
the dishwasher you know as long as the
toys are made of hard plastic they
should be completely safe in the
dishwasher and they'll come out clean
and even better germ-free
number eight cleaning a copy pot if you
start to notice that your coffee tastes
bad well it might be time to give the
pot a good cleaning and probably the
coffeemaker itself as well inside and
out all you need to clean it thoroughly
is water and vinegar start by filling
the water chamber with half water and
half vinegar allow the pot to brew for
half a cycle and then turn it off let it
sit this way for about an hour after the
hours up let the Machine finish the brew
cycle when the cycle is done empty the
pot and run a cycle again this time with
just water in fact you might want to do
that a couple of times no vinegar no
coffee grounds just water do this enough
so that the smell of vinegar disappears
once you can no longer smell the vinegar
you're ready to brew a pot of coffee and
it should taste great number nine
cleaning the blinds
unfortunately blinds could attract a
great deal of dirt and dust my wife owns
her own cleaning company she says no I
will not clean blinds our own blinds at
home she throws him away rather than
cleaning him she hates them that much if
you don't clean blinds regularly well he
can have a negative effect on the
appearance of the room most people hate
cleaning their blinds because they just
don't know the proper way well my wife
discovered the way recently to clean
your blinds quickly and easily you
should start by filling the bowl with
vinegar and water dip a wet sock in the
bowl and then use it to wipe down each
individual slant when you finished
washing the blinds you can use the other
matching socks to dry them off if you
want it's not nearly as difficult to
clean blinds as you used to think number
10 cleaning cast-iron pans people who
still use cast-iron pans are still using
soap and water to get them clean that's
not the best way to wash stubborn food
from these pans rather than using soap
and water start using a mixture of
kosher salt and water it will give the
pans the abrasive washing that they need
to get the stuck on food and residue off
after you've washed and dried the pan
pour a light coating of oil into the
and spread it around the bottom before
you store it away number 11 cleaning a
painting something else my bride is very
fond of going to a state fails and
coming home with paintings that are old
and usually dusty sometimes with
cigarette smoke stuck to them from years
and years of being viewed in somebody
else's house while cleaning paintings
can be very difficult and if you do it
wrong you could decrease the value of
that painting using a wet cloth it
sounds like it would be effective but
that could destroy the painting the best
way to clean a painting is with half of
a bagel I'm not kidding
simply rub the bagel over the painting
it will remove all of the stuck-on dust
and nastiness that's ruining the
appearance of your painting number
twelve cleaning a blender cleaning a
blender can be difficult pieces of food
can get caught up underneath the blade
it could be hard to reach that area and
it also puts you at risk of cutting
yourself while the safest and easiest
way to clean the blender requires
nothing more than some soap and water
squirt some dish detergent and some
water into the blender next turn the
blender on like you would for anything
else and leave it on for about a minute
when you're done the blender will be
completely clean number thirteen
cleaning your toothbrush while most
people know that they need to replace
their toothbrush every three months or
so most people don't know that they also
need to clean their toothbrush many
times before that happens a regular
cleaning will get all the germs and
bacteria off your toothbrush to clean it
property what you need is a cup full of
white vinegar put your toothbrush in the
cup and let it soak for a few hours
before you put it away be sure to rinse
that thoroughly with water this is a
safe and all-natural way to clean your
toothbrush number fourteen cleaning your
toaster if you're like most people
cleaning your toaster is one of the
things that you've been cleaning wrong
all your life or in my case never
cleaned a toaster at all well most
people they hold their toaster over the
trashcan and they wait for the crumbs to
fall out you shake it shake it turn it
upside down shake it again
and that is a start but while you need
to do a bit more than that if you want a
clean toaster and luckily most toasters
on the market today they have a drawer
that catches those crumbs easily all you
need to do is open the drawer in empty -
crumbs now as much as your toaster needs
to be cleaned on the inside it needs
just as much TLC on the outside the best
way to clean the outside of your toaster
is to combine some cream of tartar and
some water rub the mixture all over your
toaster and then wipe it clean this will
get any stuck on nastiness off your
toaster leaving it looking brand new
number 15
cleaning your oven spray on oven
cleaners are not as effective as they
are advertised to be if you use these
products you're going to need an awful
lot of elbow grease to remove the
stuck-on food the process is
time-consuming but with the oven is
clean you'll be happy you did it start
by mixing water and baking soda so that
it creates a paste spread that all over
the oven and then let it sit overnight
in the morning use a wet rag to wipe out
as much of the baking soda as you can
next put some vinegar in a spray bottle
and spray the inside of your oven and
wipe it down with a wet rag finally turn
your oven on low for 20 minutes to let
it dry subscribe for more
