How to clean hard-to-reach places in an apartment?

Toilet rim

A lot of bacteria and plaque accumulate under the rim. No brush will take them. To clean this area, you need to soak up the dirt.

Paper towel lotions and vinegar will help with this.... Towels wet with acid stick well under the rim of the toilet. Twenty minutes is enough to dissolve the deposits. After, it can be easily removed with a stiff brush.

Wall and floor behind the toilet

There is little space left behind the toilet. And unlike a closet, it can't be moved all the time.

A thin brush for clothes and a ruler can help in cleaning... Bristles can be used to remove dirt, and a ruler wrapped in a cloth can be used to clean surfaces.

Sink drain

Food leftovers constantly fall into the drain and stick to its walls. This becomes a breeding ground for microbes.

There are two ways:

1. preventive treatment of pipes with means of blockages;
2. cleaning pipes using available tools.

For the second way, you will also need boiling water and time.

1. Pour boiling water into the sink, pour half a glass of soda with a funnel. The soda in the siphon will dissolve in five minutes.
2. After that, add a glass of acetic acid and close the sink with a plug.
3. Under the pressure of the foam, the plaque will quickly come off the walls of the drain.
4. After 10 minutes, you can open the plugs and pour boiling water into the sink, rinsing off the remains.

Shower head

In areas with hard water, the problem of low pressure due to scale on the shower head is acute. Acetic acid and a dense plastic bag can cope with this.

We fill the bag with acid and fix it on the shower so that all the holes in the watering can are completely submerged. After a couple of hours, acid dissolve lime.

To get rid of residues and odors, you need to thoroughly rinse the watering can itself.

Ventilation grill

One of the most problematic places - it is located high and it is difficult to remove it to wash it in the sink. A knife will come to the rescue. The cutlery should be wrapped in a cloth and dipped in detergent. This design will easily pass through narrow cells and trap the remaining fat.

To consolidate the result, the grill plates can be waxed in the same way. Dust will be less likely to cling to the surface, and cleaning may not be done as often.

Keyboard

Everyone has a habit of eating something in front of a computer or laptop. After the next meal, a lot of crumbs remain in the keyboard. Paper stickers will do a great job.

Remember to turn off your appliances before cleaning.

Large crumbs and dust should be brushed off with a soft brush. For smaller, more sticky particles, use a sticker. With the adhesive side, it is leaned against the edge of the buttons. You can also use paper tape. After manipulation, you can wipe the surface of the buttons with napkins.

Jalousie

The lamellas are thin, and the distance between them is not great. To clean thoroughly, you need kitchen tongs wrapped in a single layer of rag.

1. The rag can be dipped in the cleaning agent first.
2. By clamping the plates between the tongs, you can quickly clean two sides at once.

Window frame

There are many cracks in the window frames. Small dust particles are clogged in them, which often not only spoil the aesthetics of windows, but also in neglected situations can interfere with work.

Soda will help solve the problem. It must be evenly scattered in the frame and moistened with a wet cloth. You should get a gruel. Rubbing it with a toothbrush, you can achieve a good result. Waste material can be easily removed with a dry sponge.

Exhaust grille

It is difficult to clean the hood filters: the cells are small, and the dirt sticks to them tightly. To get it out of there, you need a large saucepan.

1. The filter mesh must be boiled in a soda solution for about half an hour. This time should be enough for the dirt to get wet. Soda speeds up this process.
2. After that, we scrub the surface with a toothbrush. Its bristles can easily reach soggy residues.

Rack for knives

Food particles enter the knife holes in the rack. As a result, the counter loses its appearance and starts to smell unpleasant. It is impossible to crawl through the slots accurately.

Therefore, the entire rack should be soaked in a container of soapy water. After fifteen minutes, the dirt will get wet and can be washed off with a jet of water.

It is important to pay attention to hard-to-reach places. They are as breeding grounds for dust and bacteria as any other place in the house. You can get to the dirt accumulated in the cracks and far corners, for this you only need patience and creativity.
