Not everyone loves cleaning as much as we do - but it's easy to see why! Leaving the whole list of chores to the weekend can feel overwhelming and take up precious hours that could be better spent with friends and family. Instead of letting chores pile up, try doing a little every day. Tackling a load of laundry or cleaning one bathroom can help divide the labour across the week, leaving you with more time on the weekends.

You can't get a good clean with dirty tools! When is the last time you cleaned your vacuum or swapped your dish sponge? It seems silly to clean your cleaning supplies, but if you're using dirty equipment you could be spreading more dirt and germs than you're removing. Fun fact: Merry Maids cleaners sanitize their tools and bottles between every customer and never reuses cloths. https://merrymaids.ca/new-enhanced-safety-protocols

If you're still working from home, consider yourself lucky that you're still avoiding the dreaded communal microwave. Keep yours clean with the help of a little lemon. Fill a bowl with half a cup of water, slice and squeeze in some lemon juice and add the halves to the bowl. Microwave on high for 3 minutes then LET IT SIT FOR 5 MINUTES. When you open the door be very careful removing the bowl (the water will be boiling hot) and scrub away. The lemon water mixture should make cleaning the stuck on sauces much easier. Have you tried this trick? Does it work for you - let us know!

Keeping faucets spotless is a tireless task. Next time you scrub the sink, grab the wax paper and give the tap a rub - this will leave a very light coating of wax to help repel water and keep the shine a little longer.
