Managing all of the cleaning tasks in the average home can be overwhelming at the best of times, so it's no surprise that some jobs get overlooked-or just plain ignored. In this video, I wanted to highlight five things that probably need some attention, and of course, how to clean them properly.

I love to vacuum! The space just feels so much better to me after. I don't clean out my purse often enough, but I did recently and it's so true, because especially with little kids, stuff just collects in there. Whenever we're out, random papers, wrappers, kids toys, everything, gets thrown into my purse. Great reminder!!!

Thanks for the video! I already do most of these things... except for the microwave. Instead of throwing out freshly squeezed halves of a lemon each morning, I use them to clean the microwave occasionally, as per one of your older videos. One half is in a bowl of water, while the other half is laying face down next to the bowl. Works wonders! This is definitely easier, though, so I'll share this with my boyfriend so he knows how to clean up after Himself a lot easier :) Life is full of lessons, after all, and I'm sure he'll enjoy a simple cleaning solution... although I know he'll use a dish cloth instead of a microfiber one. Haha

CLEANING TIP FOR DYSON VACUUM. on every dyson vacuum head there is a slot on the one side for a coin, turn it and you can take out the whole brush bar which means you can also clean the plastic window part, theres also one on the bottom to open the head more. makes your dyson look brand new again.

@jconroylink 6 жыл бұрын

I hate vacuuming! However, I like clean floors and rugs. I use a Bissell 3 in 1 for crumbs and stuff that drop on the kitchen floor but my husband was in charge of the vacuuming. It was not as often as I'd like but he did it. Then I bought a rug cleaning machine and when he tested it out he really liked it. Now he not only vacuums but cleans the rugs. Of course, he makes a big production of it and needs praise and back pats for his "effort" but I get to enjoy clean rugs.

@monalisasingh2331 6 жыл бұрын

I believe that it's more important to cleanse your purses and bags of germs rather than organising them. We put these bags everywhere from floors to public washroom counters, and it can get pretty gross tbh. That's why I only use one purse for a week, before cleaning it out and changing it, and have a specific place in my home to keep that bag I take out. To clean a regular bag, I take a soft towel and dip it in some warm water, gentle detergent, and an antiseptic liquid, and give the bag a good wipe inside out and keep it to dry. For an expensive bag, I user a baby wipe or facial wipe, with some Sanitizer and again give the bag a good wipe inside out. If you feel like the wet wipes are too wet for your expensive purse, just blot it quickly with a good kitchen towel. Also, I always clean the stuff inside my bag as well, with the same towel or wipe, before placing them again in my clean bag.

I appreciate vacuum cleaners. Growing up we would have times when we had to use a broom and dustpan on carpeted floors. Vacuums are so much easier to use and you don't strain muscles you never knew you had using a broom and dustpan. Try cleaning some time with a broom and dustpan only, you will come to appreciate the vacuum cleaner.

Please help me..... I have always been a lazy person when it comes to cleaning, even as a child I hated it. I'd straighten but never deep clean. I've lived in my house for 13 years so you can imagine what I'm dealing with. You guys have motivated and inspired me to get my act together. I have 2 things I need help with: 1) a blob of black on my entry way tiles. Most likely gum but pretty much cement at this point. 2) my son just left for the Navy and his toilet is beyond disgusting. I don't know how many years since it's been cleaned, literally. The gunk is so caked up and hard at this point I don't have enough arm strength even with a pumic stone. I would really appreciate any suggestions you might have. Absolutely love your tips, your personalities and your relationship. Congrats on a beautiful Riley baby!! She's a lucky gal to have parents like you!
