A cleaning expert has advised homeowners that they could be overspending on cleaning products, highlighting three key items that can effectively handle various household cleaning tasks. While personal preferences differ, the specialist emphasized that having a well-stocked cabinet is not necessary to keep your home clean and fresh.
The advice was given by Kellsie Cleaning Tutorials, known as @zapatas_cleaningservices on TikTok, as reported by the Express. In a video titled ‘don’t waste money,’ Kellsie shared, “These three items can tackle a wide range of cleaning tasks around your home, and you may already have them. They are cost-effective, versatile, and can replace many specialized cleaners.”
“Firstly, baking soda. It’s not just for baking; it serves as a natural deodorizer. Sprinkle it in your trash bin to control odors. For shoes, pour some inside overnight, then shake it out in the morning for a fresher smell. You can also use baking soda in your dishwasher or washing machine to eliminate odors and maintain a clean scent.”
“Secondly, microfiber towels. These are essential for professional cleaners as they effectively capture dust, dirt, and bacteria. Use them on mirrors, windows, stainless steel, and countertops for a streak-free shine and to clean everyday messes. Wash microfiber towels together to prevent lint from cotton, which can be challenging to remove. Proper washing ensures their longevity.”
“Lastly, isopropyl alcohol. This underrated cleaner is favored by professionals for its quick disinfecting properties. Opt for 70% concentration as it disinfects more effectively by evaporating slowly, killing bacteria and germs. It is safe on various surfaces including tile and natural stone. Attach a spray nozzle for convenience.”
In conclusion, Kellsie stated, “These three items are versatile and budget-friendly for cleaning your home. I always keep them in stock.” The video received positive feedback from viewers, with one person expressing, “Love all your cleaning tips and tools, they make cleaning so much easier and enjoyable.” Another viewer commented, “Thanks for the helpful cleaning advice!”
