Now we can walk around in slippers, and the hair on the ground will be caught by the rubber band. Isn't that easy?

Before cleaning, remember to unplug the power, take out the drawers, put a basin of hot water in each compartment, close the refrigerator door for ten minutes, and then open it. The frost on the inner wall can then be easily removed.

Coffee and tea lovers know that thick layers of stains easily form on blankets, and simple rinsing with water simply cannot remove them. Just look at the picture below; it's enough to make your scalp tingle.
Toothpaste has a great cleaning effect; the small particles can also achieve the purpose of cleaning through friction. It is so convenient to easily remove tea stains and coffee stains, and it will not leave any marks.
Faucet
To clean faucets, prepare a spray bottle, add white vinegar and salt, and then dilute with water.
Salt has antiseptic and antibacterial properties, and white vinegar has a strong cleaning effect. Spraying water with our homemade cleaning solution and wiping the faucet will make it look brand new.
Shower head
Over time, limescale can clog the spray nozzles of your bathroom showerhead. To fix this, pour white vinegar into a plastic bag, secure it with a rubber band, and let it soak overnight. It will then look brand new.
Range hood
Next up is the devilish area for deep cleaning: the kitchen!! The range hood!! It's covered in sticky, greasy grease—just thinking about it is terrifying!
We remove the filter from the range hood, put it in the sink, add a handful of baking soda, soak it for a while, then rinse it with clean water, let it dry, and then it's ready to be installed!
After cleaning, it's recommended to line the inside of the oil tank with plastic wrap. Next time, simply peel it off and throw away the waste oil along with it. After all, nobody wants to clean an oil tank again, right?
Pot bottom
To remove the black, sticky residue from the bottom of a pot, all you need is plastic wrap and baking soda. First, spray water on the stained area, then apply a suitable amount of baking soda.
Wrap the pot in plastic wrap and leave it overnight. The next day, scrub it with a dishcloth, and the stains on the bottom of the pot will come off easily.
window screen
If you don't want to remove the window screen for cleaning, you can stick old newspapers on it and spray dish soap on the other side.
After letting it sit for 5 minutes, peel it off and wipe away any excess dust with a cloth. You'll find the window screen is much cleaner.
