Easy Cleaning Tricks That Will Make Your Kitchen Shine

Cleaning the kitchen may take significantly longer than cleaning the rest of the flat. It’s a lot of effort between the tiles, the stove, the oven, and the microwave! And the surfaces necessitate a great deal of attention and time. However, there are ways to make the cleaning procedure quicker and faster, even though some of the suggestions may appear extreme: why use mayonnaise or a sock to clean something? However, all of these suggestions are quite beneficial.

A ruler for the vent

There are a lot of different ways to remove the dust from a vent and the most effective ones include a vacuum cleaner or a can of compressed air. In any case, after removing the biggest part of the dirt, it’s best to wash the vent with a wet cloth: it’s very easy to do so while using a regular plastic or wooden ruler.

Flour to get rid of grease

Old grease stains are really hard to get rid of, especially if the surface needs a delicate approach. Use flour in this case. Put some flour on a grease spot and remove it sometime later. This method works perfectly on a stove.

A paper towel in the fridge

Washing the fridge is not much fun, but if you use a paper towel, you will be able to reduce the frequency. Most of the time, you might notice stains because of an excess of water from fresh vegetables and fruit. A piece of paper towel put under the vegetables or bottles will remove the problem. Also, you can use a bag of silica gel from a shoe box.

Boiling water for a microwave oven

Steam in a microwave oven can literally do miracles: all you need to do is put a pot of water in your microwave oven and let the water boil a little. Simply rub the walls with a wet cloth. This lifehack is also great for washing a slow cooker.

Activated carbon to get rid of smells

This is another life hack for the fridge that can also help you to clean a cabinet: if you notice that there is a strong smell in the kitchen that doesn’t go away, you might need to use activated carbon. Place a few pills in the fridge and it will absorb all the smells.

Coffee for a room’s aroma

After cleaning a room or cooking some really smelly foods, you can add a very nice coffee aroma to the room. Just place a burning candle in a jar of coffee beans and the room will be filled with a coffee aroma.

Potato, oil, and salt to clean a grill grate

After that, take half of a potato and rub it on the grate. You will notice that the grease will be easily removed.

A task for the lone sock

If you notice that you have only one sock from a pair, don’t throw it away. If it’s thick enough, it will be a great replacement for a mop cloth. It’s just as good for cleaning dust as microfiber is.
