It's quick and easy to wipe away dirt and smells in your kitchen and bathroom trash containers. Use Mr. Clean Extra Power Wipes to keep them clean and odour-free.
Put
all your spring cleaning products
together in one “kit” and
take them with you from room to
room to save trips.
Make sure guests have easy access to extra rolls of toilet tissue, so they don't have to rummage through your cupboards - keep extra rolls of Charmin in a pretty basket on the floor.
Make guests feel at home with current magazines in the bathroom and bedroom. And don't forget to leave fresh drinking glasses and bottles of water on the dresser and bathroom counter.
Shoo
away seasonal fruit flies with
a small glass of apple cider
vinegar mixed with a few drops
of dish detergent, such as Ultra
Dawn. Place it on your counter – the
flies will attract to the mixture.
Deep
clean your shower stall this
spring: first, loosen up dirt
and grime in the shower stall
by letting hot water run for
5 minutes first – to save
energy, clean it right after
showering so the dirt has already
loosened.
Be sure to provide guests with a basket for their used laundry towels. Line the basket with a Bounce sheet to keep towels smelling fresh.
Get the guest room ready with Swiffer duster with the extendable handle. It reaches ceiling fans, window sills and door frames, trapping and locking dust.
Don’t
just spring clean your home! In spring,
things like kids’ soccer bags and
wet dogs can leave your car smelling
less than fresh. Spray some Febreze
Fabric Refresher in your vehicle (and into sports
bags) after each trip to chase odours
away.
Wash
windows on a mild spring day. When the
weather’s too cool or the sun is
too bright, you’re more likely
to get streaky windows.
Store extra sets of guest sheets in the linen closet by folding the sheets in half lengthwise and placing one over the other. Then add pillowcases folded lengthwise and roll the set together, so it's always easy to grab.
After
you spring clean your fridge, give it
a nice vanilla scent: douse a cotton
ball with a few drops of vanilla extract
and place it on a refrigerator shelf.
Here’s a great way to discourage the spread of germs: instead of terrycloth hand towels in your guest bathrooms, put a roll of Bounty on the counter.
Spray Febreze Fabric Refresher on your upholstered surfaces, carpets and curtains to give them a light, fresh scent.
Washing
clothes can fade colours and weaken
fibres, so wash in cold water with Tide
Coldwater to keep your family’s spring
clothes looking better, longer.
When
you’re dusting, be sure to start
at the top of the room and work your
way down as the dust settles. It’s
also helpful to work around a room
in a circular fashion so you remember
what you’ve already cleaned.
Chase away stale odours in the guest rooms with Febreze Noticeables. Plug them in the bathroom and bedroom to infuse the air with a pleasant fresh clean scent.
