It\u2019s great that nobody keeps these tips secret and that people are happy to share them online. We decided to find out which tips and tricks can really help us!\n

1. Squeegees can help collect hair from your carpets.\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
Carpets can make any place feel cozy, but they are also a lot of trouble because dust, pet hair, and our own hair \u2014 all build up in them. It\u2019s really hard to get all of this dirt out with a regular vacuum cleaner \u2014 because it\u2019s just not powerful enough. Fortunately, internet users know what to do \u2014 you just need to use a squeegee. Just go over the carpet by pressing it a bit. The hair and dust will be pulled up, and you can collect them with a vacuum cleaner.\n
\n
\n
2. Tennis balls can help remove scuff marks.\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
You can use an ordinary tennis ball to remove scuff marks. You don\u2019t even need any cleaning agents to do it. Just take a light-colored tennis ball and rub it on something dirty. To remove more serious marks, you can put the ball on a mop handle by cutting an X into the ball. This will help you apply more force.\n
\n
3. Vinegar can clean your washing machine.\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
\n
You don\u2019t need a\u00a0special detergent for washing machines because ordinary\u00a0vinegar\u00a0can do\u00a0the job just fine. To\u00a0clean a\u00a0top-load machine, pour a\u00a0liter of\u00a0vinegar into the washer while running the longest cycle with the hottest temperature. After 5\u00a0minutes, stop the machine and let it\u00a0rest with the solution for 1\u00a0hour. After that, continue the cycle and wait for it\u00a0to\u00a0finish.\n
For front-load machines, you\u2019ll need less vinegar\u00a0\u2014 just a\u00a03\/4\u00a0cup. Put it\u00a0into the detergent dispenser. Turn on\u00a0the wash cycle at\u00a0the hottest temperature and when the water is\u00a0out, run an\u00a0additional rinse cycle. You can use baking soda to\u00a0achieve an\u00a0even better effect.\n\n
\n
4. Dishwasher tablets can be\u00a0used differently.\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
\n
\n
One of the most unpleasant problems at home are clogs that happen unexpectedly. Most of us don\u2019t always have an anti-clog agent on hand, so it\u2019s great that they can be replaced with dishwasher tablets. They contain very similar agents that can dissolve grease and food waste. Just let the tablet dissolve in the drain. But don\u2019t expect it to remove the clog as fast as an anti-clog agent. It needs more time. Also, tablets won\u2019t remove hair.\n
Dishwasher tablets can remove the soap stains on the shower doors too. It\u2019s simple: wet the tablet in warm water and rub it on the doors. After that, wash the surface with water. You\u2019ll be able to see results in around 15 minutes.\n
\n
5. An\u00a0unusual way to\u00a0remove residue from a\u00a0pan\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
\n
Even the most aggressive cleaning products can\u2019t always remove all the residue and if you do it too hard, you can damage the surface. But there\u2019s a very effective way to remove residue: pour some oil on the pan and put it inside the oven for 20 minutes. The residue will melt and turn into a liquid that will be easy to remove when it cools down.\n
\n

\n
6. Putting a\u00a0tin foil ball into the washer to\u00a0remove static\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
To remove the static from your laundry, just put a tin foil ball into the washer. The same ball can be used for a long time \u2014 around 6 months.\n
\n
To\u00a0remove the static from your laundry, just\u00a0put\u00a0a\u00a0tin foil ball into the washer. The same ball can be\u00a0used for a\u00a0long time\u00a0\u2014 around 6\u00a0months.\n\n
\n
7. Tape on\u00a0the pan\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
\n
\n
We all know how hard it is to sweep all the dust onto the pan. You can put masking tape on the edge of your pan. And it will make it easier to collect all the dust.\n
\n
8. Use a\u00a0lint roller to\u00a0clean your window screens.\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
A lot of our time is devoted to cleaning windows: the windowsills, the frames, and the screens. When you have just a little bit of time, you can remove the dust and insects from the screen using a lint roller. And you don\u2019t even have to take the screen out.\n
\n
9. You can wash a\u00a0lot of\u00a0things in\u00a0your dishwasher\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
Despite the name, it\u2019s not just dishes that you can wash in a dishwasher. Here are some of the things you can wash: a soap dish, a toothbrush holder, toothbrushes, kitchen sponges, plastic lampshades, makeup brushes, your pets\u2019 bowl, fridge shelves, etc.\n
\n
10. Put a\u00a0squeeze bottle top on\u00a0the vacuum cleaner\n\n
\n
$\"\"$ \n
\n
If you put a squeeze bottle top on the vacuum cleaner, you will be able to clean very difficult-to-reach places. The top doesn\u2019t have to be the exact same size, just turn the vacuum cleaner on and it will keep it in place. You can collect the dirt between the buttons of your keyboard or narrow window corners.\n
\n
11. A\u00a0clothes steamer is\u00a0not just for clothes.\n\n
\n
\n $\"\"$ \n
\n
\n
\n
\n
Clothes steamers can completely change the rules of house cleaning. They are universal: you can get rid of grease in the oven, wash mirrors and windows, and clean dust. Also, you can quickly defrost your freezer.\n
And what cleaning tricks do you know?\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
