  • Dust first and vacuum second. Any bits of dust and dirt will fall to the floor where they will be collected in the vacuum cleaner.
  • The best dust cloth is a damp, clean, microfibre cloth. To dampen, hold the cloth by a corner and lightly mist with clean water from a spray bottle. The cloth should be just damp enough to pick up dust without leaving moisture streaks on the furniture. This is the best way to deliver a clean, safe and green way of cleaning.
  • When dusting wall units follow this procedure: first lift and dust each object, then dust the shelf both underneath and behind. Start from the top of the unit and move down to the bottom.
  • Never dust a warm or hot light bulb with a damp cloth, as the bulb will shatter.
  • Dampen a clean, soft paintbrush to remove dust from louvered doors, telephone and keyboard keys, carved furniture, etc.
  • Venetian blinds can be maintained with minimum effort. Close the slants, dust, close the slants the opposite way and dust again.

  • A dry clean microfibre cloth will polish chrome to an eye-catching gleam.
  • To remove and clean finger prints from stainless steel appliances, add a small amount of baby oil to clean, soft microfibre cloth and wipe the surface in the direction of the grain.
  • Change the vacuum bag as recommended by the manufacturer to maintain maximum suction.
  • If your vacuum has poor suction it might be the result of a blocked hose. To check for a blockage, disconnect the hose and then drop a penny down the hose. If the penny falls out, your hose is likely not the problem.
  • A small hand vacuum with a beater bar is useful for vacuuming upholstery and carpeted stair steps.
  • Look underneath the furniture before vacuuming so the vacuum does not pick up small items such as toys, jewellery, coins, etc.
  • Appliances that hang under cabinets save both space and time, as cleaning under them is no longer an issue.
  • To soften splatters inside the microwave, fill a cup with water and microwave on high for a few minutes. The steam will loosen any baked on food so you can easily wipe it clean.
  • Allow burner rings from the hob to soak in a sink full of hot, soapy water. This will loosen the dirt and make them easier to clean.
  • Spray oven racks in a plastic rubbish bag for easier cleaning.
  • Dish cloths and sponges can be incubators for germs. Launder dish cloths regularly, and microwave damp sponges in the microwave on high for several minutes to kill bacteria.

  • Use a cloth on the end of a mop handle to reach the narrow space between appliances.

  • To reduce the risk of slip and fall accidents, place anti-slip backing under rugs.
  • Place a mat inside and outside each entrance to your home to reduce the dirt that is brought in on shoes and boots.
