Ray's Top 40 Cleaning Tips for a Deep Clean in 2022

Hey there! We know you love a good cleaning frenzy, and in the ever-busy year of 2022, we're here to help you zone in on efficient and effective cleaning strategies. So sit back, relax, and get ready to tackle that grime with our expert tips!

1. Prioritize and Strategy

Start your cleanse from the top, working your way down. Ceilings, walls, mirrors, windows, surfaces, and finally floors. This way, you won't find yourself redoing work (e.g., cleaning the coffee table after cleaning the ceiling fan). Your time is valuable!

2. Glass Essentials

Equip yourself with a pack of reusable microfiber glass-cleaning cloths. Use the damp green cloth to remove dust and smudges, followed by the blue cloth to eliminate any remaining residue. They're no-nonsense and leave zero streaks!

3. Dust the Right Way

Bye-bye, feather dusters! Opt instead for a microfiber duster that captures dust particles rather than scattering them around. It's easy to wash and works like a charm!

4. Pillowcase Magic

When dustin' off a ceiling fan, an old pillowcase does the trick! It slips right over the blades, collects dust, and can be easily removed for disposal.

5. Washer Wonder

If your clothes aren't coming out clean after a wash, consider a pack of washing machine tablets to ensure your appliance is in tip-top shape. A clean machine equals clean clothes!

6. Disposal Delight

Garbage disposal cleaners are a magical solution for removing buildup and lingering odors in your sink drain. Simply toss a pouch in, run some water, and watch as the blue foam does its thing!

8. Refresh Sponges

Revive your sponges by soaking them in water and microwaving for a minute. This method eliminates 99.9% of bacteria, ensuring your sponges are always clean and ready for action.
