Actually, mastering a few home cleaning tips can make cleaning a breeze, whether it's for the New Year or just regular cleaning. Let's take a look at some commonly used home cleaning tips in advance.

I. Cleaning of living room and dining room

Cleaning the living and dining room is relatively easy, but things like curtains, blinds, and window frames still require special attention.

1. Curtains

Curtain cleaning is often overlooked by homeowners. In fact, after a year of use, curtains will accumulate a lot of dust and other harmful substances, so it is best to clean them when cleaning your home.

When installing curtains during the initial stages of renovation, it's best to avoid using curtain boxes, as this may increase the difficulty of removing and cleaning the curtains.

It is recommended to wipe the curtains with a damp cloth every month or use a vacuum cleaner to remove dust from the surface of the curtains; wash the curtains at least once a year; for families with elderly people or children, it is recommended to wash them every six months.

Dust on the curtain rod can be cleaned by hanging a long strip of cloth on the curtain and wiping it back and forth, which is convenient and effortless.

2. Venetian blinds

Some homeowners use Venetian blinds for their curtains, and some shoe cabinets and kitchen cabinets also use Venetian blinds for their doors. You can use two sponges to hold the Venetian blind slats for cleaning, or you can use a feather duster or a special curtain brush, which is also very convenient.

3. Window frame

Cleaning window frames is also quite difficult. You can cut a kitchen cleaning cloth and use it to clean the window frames. You can also use a piece of paper to make a small shovel to move the dust into the shovel.

4. Glass

The outer layer of glass is not easy to clean, but you can use a double-sided glass cleaner. It is magnetic and adjustable, and it is easy and safe to clean.

5. Sofa

For families using fabric sofas, it is recommended to use sofa covers. When cleaning, simply remove the sofa covers and clean them. Sofa cleaning will no longer be a hassle.

II. Kitchen Cleaning

The kitchen is a key area for cleaning in the whole family. It can be difficult to clean due to the presence of cooking fumes. However, with some clever cleaning tips, you can save yourself a lot of trouble.

1. Range hood

Specialized cleaners and hot towels can clean grease stains on the surface of range hoods. Some homeowners directly use a pot that is not used often, pour water into it and boil it to use steam to accelerate the cleaning of grease stains.

You can use a paste to clean the filter screen. After removing the filter screen, apply the paste and leave it for about half a day to a day. Then scrape off the paste and clean the remaining part again with hot water.

Of course, families who are usually very careful about cleanliness will have much less to worry about when cleaning during the Lunar New Year.

2. Stove

After spraying the alkaline cleaner, let it sit for 10 minutes, then wipe it dry with a cloth.

If there are many stains on the wall next to the stove, you will also need to use a special cleaner; in addition, you can cover it with plastic wrap for protection, and just peel off the plastic wrap when it gets dirty.

3. Other

Sinks are generally easy to clean; baking soda and hot water can remove odors.

III. Toilets

1. Faucet

If there is scale buildup on the faucet, you can clean it with citric acid solution. Wrap the citric acid solution in plastic wrap and soak the faucet in the acid solution. Clean it the next day.

2. Toilet

84. Toilet cleaners, oxygen bleach, etc. can all be used to clean toilets; adding citric acid and hot water will make it even more effective.

Hopefully, these home cleaning tips can help everyone to clean their homes smoothly and effortlessly in the upcoming New Year, giving them a fresh new look to welcome the new year.
