Tips For Home Cleaning Without Chemicals From The Pros
Switch to more natural methods when it comes to cleaning your own home! Take a look at the following tips.
Baking Soda for Oven Cleaning
Arm&Hammer did it. They put it in soaps, detergents, cleaning agents, and even in toothpaste! While trusted brands keep you guaranteed safety, you can also DIY them to reduce costs. Of course, it could be more satisfying for you to DIY your own version of the oven cleaning supply. It’s easy. You will only need a spray bottle, some tap water, and your preferred baking soda.
Simply mix the baking soda and water in the spray bottle and shake. Gradually add water if the solution becomes too thick. There is no perfect ratio to it that is proven to reduce grime and stain inside your oven quickly.
Once you have your solution, spray it on top of stubborn stains, burnt pieces of food, and visible grime. Then let the solution rest for an hour. Once you see the color change, you can wipe it off with a microfiber towel. No need to do any major scrubbing! If the stain persists, repeat the process until it comes out.
Melamine Sponge Over Magic Erasers
Magic erasers are amazing! We often hear other people say this, but our professional cleaning experts would say otherwise. Instead of spending on brand names such as that, you can get yourself melamine foam cleaners made of Eco-friendly materials. You can buy these in bulk for a cheaper price.
The best thing about it is that you can cut it according to the shape you want it to be! Cutting the sponge into triangular shapes will allow you to use the pointed tip in wiping crevices that are hard to reach if it is square-shaped.
All Microfiber Fabric
Like magic erasers, there is something about microfiber fabric towels that is just awesome. You can wipe clean window surfaces without the need for other liquid cleaners. Our professional cleaning experts shared that they bring different colours of microfiber towel that represents levels of cleaning.
They use one microfiber to simply remove the stains that can be removed with a simple to prevent it from spreading. It is then followed by a different coloured microfiber towel combined with the cleaning action of a baking soda or Eco-friendly cleaning agent.
Make Tough Scouring Powder
If you have recently showered and felt the slime on the surface of your bathroom floor or your bathtub, then it’s sad to say that scum has already built up. These slimy substances can cause serious accidents inside the bathroom. Keep your family safe by cleaning your bathroom at least twice a week to prevent scum build-up.
All you need to make the toughest scouring powder is 2 parts baking soda, 1 part salt, and 1 part borax. Head to the nearest convenience store and begin your DIY.
Add Citrus to Vinegar
This one takes a while to accomplish but once everything is good and prepared, you will have a solution that can cut through bacteria found on the surface and floor. All you need to do is fill a jar with citrus peels and pour undiluted vinegar until contents soak. Leave the combination for at least 1 week.
After a week or two strain the vinegar and transfer it into a spray bottle. Use the solution to clean windows with a microfiber towel. Try this simple hack to see the difference in glass surface clarity compared to other solutions.

Of course, stubborn stains can be quite difficult to remove. With that said, Premium Clean can offer you carpet shampooing and cleaning with sanitising and deodorising processes. This is to ensure the stain is erased and the odour is gone.
Soak Shower Head in Vinegar
We have said this before: there are germs found in showerheads that you may never have heard of before. Showerheads are great for thriving bacteria to multiply. Scientists have mentioned that many bacteria are harmless, but found traces of nontuberculous mycobacteria, which can cause lung infections.
To prevent this, follow these simple steps:
- Fill a plastic bag with white vinegar
- Tie the bag around the shower head so that it is immersed in the vinegar
- Leave it on for up to 12 hours and remove carefully
After doing those, you should have a sparkling clean, and brand new-looking shower head. To prevent anyone from removing it, do this procedure overnight.
