Cleaning Loopholes

Loopholes are one of life’s little gifts; finding a loophole means an opportunity to make something faster, easier or more enjoyable. When completing a cleaning task, any loophole that leads to spotlessness or at least the illusion of it is a welcome sight.

CLUTTER: Clutter is the nemesis of an organized space, luckily there are some tricks for dealing with it easily. Try having a box handy, somewhere to put all the knick knacks lying around. Keep clothes off the floor, hang your towels up neatly and have a place for garbage in each room.

WIPE: Even if you don’t have time to do the dishes or scrub down the bathroom, give a cleaned-up appearance by wiping all kitchen and bathroom surfaces to add some shine. Disposable disinfectant wipes allow for a result that is both fast and thorough.

FLOORS: If you keep fresh tracks in your carpets, it will give any room that fresh-vacuumed feeling. Also the use of a hand held dust buster allows you to tackle and control floor debris without having to lug around a vacuum cleaner or take time to sweep.
