Carpet cleaning
hints & tips Remove chewing gum
from carpets with an ice cube. Once the gum is cold, it goes hard, then
you gently pick it off.If you have a spillage,
NEVER rub, this distorts the carpet pile. Always just blot and blot and
blot with white kitchen roll.
Spots that "return" in carpet are actually caused
by detergent residue. Detergent residue attracts new soil by cleaning the
bottom of shoes. The secret is not to leave soap and water to dry in the
carpet.
Use a vacuum
cleaner with a HEPA filter, this stops dust being circulated back into the
air that we breath and is particularly important for allergy sufferers.

| Window cleaning
hints & tips When using a
scraper, always make sure the glass is wet and change the scraper blade
regularly. Clean very dirty windows
with an applicator in a figure-of-eight pattern. Squeegee from the bottom
left corner. Go up the left edge to the top, then across to the top-right,
then work your way down from one side to the other, to end up at the
bottom-left and finally across to the bottom-right. Wipe around the edges
with a clean, dry scrim. Always use the correct
ladders for the job or water fed pole system. |

Housekeeping hints & tips Pour a can of Coca-Cola
into the toilet bowl and let it sit for a while; the phosphoric acid in
the Coca-Cola will work on the stain. Or put a few denture cleaning
tablets in the bowl.Use
mayonnaise to remove stickers from wooden surface. Wipe on top, score the
sticker then after 2 mins sticker just peels off. Easy.
Oven Cleaning Tip. First, take baby wipes and dry them a little.
Wear rubber gloves and soak the wipes in a strong oven cleaner.
Then, place the soaked wipes over the oven’s greasy spots and leave it
like that for one hour (the soaked wipes will stay attached even on
vertical surface). The oven cleaner will break the stains and the wipes
will absorb it inside. Take off the wipes and use a gentle scotch to
remove any leftovers. Then, use fresh baby wipes to clean and shine the
oven exterior surface. |

Office cleaning hints & tips

first priority before beginning your office clean. This is because it

sorted the paperwork that often covers desks. |
