Frequently Asked Questions
What Are the Must-Have Cleaning Tools for Spring Cleaning?
Essential tools for cleaning are an extendable duster to reach high spots, microfiber cloths that can clean different surfaces, a good-quality vacuum cleaner with attachments, and a mop that fits your floor type. Don’t forget to include cleaning solutions, rubber gloves, and garbage bags.
How Can I Make My Spring Cleaning Eco-Friendly?
Embrace green cleaning by using natural alternatives. You can try baking soda, vinegar, and essential oils. Look for plant-based cleaning products, or you can make your own. Choose to use reusable cloths and containers instead of disposable ones.
How Often Should I Deep Clean My Carpets and Upholstery?
Cleaning your carpets and upholstery at least two times a year is a good idea. If you have pets or if you often deal with spills or stains, you may need to clean them more often. This will help keep everything clean and fresh.
