Steam away those Stains

If your microwave is full of unsightly splatters from last night’s TV dinner and old food smears that stand the test of time, then this cleaning hack is for you! Start by putting an equal amount of white vinegar and water into a bowl. Then microwave for 5 minutes, this will loosen all those tough stains ready to remove with a simple wipe. If you don’t fancy using white vinegar you can replace this with lemon juice!

Toothbrushes at the Ready!

Get your old toothbrushes at the ready because they are going to come in very useful with this cleaning hack! Stubborn dirt between tiles can be a nightmare to clean, however, mixing baking soda and water onto a toothbrush and scrubbing the problem areas with the mixture will help lift the grime and dirt and allow you to get into those hard to reach areas with ease.

Say Goodbye to Dirty Blenders

Great for making your early morning smoothies, it is undeniable that the blender is a handy kitchen appliance, however, they are not always the easiest to clean effectively. Start by filling your blender with warm water and add a small drop of dish soup. Then pop the lid on and blend for a couple of seconds. Once complete empty out the mixture and leave to dry.

Pet Fur be Gone!
