First-Hand Guide To Essential House Cleaning Supplies

There is nothing that irritates me more than not having the right tools for the job.  And this principle applies in full force when we’re talking about cleaning house and having the right house cleaning supplies.  On the one hand you have surfaces that require certain cleaners so they won’t get scratched or damaged.  On the other hand you have things that just aren’t coming clean without the right product.  Having the right house cleaning supplies will speed you up and make the entire process go much, much smoother.

House cleaning supplies are similar to foods in that it’s a good idea to read the label.  Here you’ll find out not only the typical uses for the product, but also the various precautions and ingredients.  Of course, you have to be careful too.  Some products may be called “all purpose,” and yet not be well-suited for some of your particular cleaning needs.  For example, ammonia is one of the most common cleaning ingredients on the market.  However, it can actually harm certain plastics and laminates.

Gathering a list of critical house cleaning supplies can be simplified by just thinking through the steps you’re about to take.  A great rule of thumb is to plan to clean from the ceiling down to the floor.  So, what would you want to use to snatch those spider webs from the ceiling and remove that layer of dust from fans and bookshelves above the eye line?  Another pointer is to not be swayed by all the new lotions, potions, pills, and powders.  True, there are some great new products that come out from time to time.  However, some warm soapy water can cover a number of applications.  And all the gadgets can be appealing, but a good ‘ole rag has worked well for centuries.  Sure, you’ll need some other goodies, but don’t overdo it.

Here are some specific ideas regarding a few key products on your house cleaning supplies list.  First, let’s talk about cleaning glass.  You’re free to get the cleaner of your choice.  However, for actual cleaning, I want to challenge you to dispense with Grandma’s passion for newspaper.  Professional window washers will tell you that the newspaper has a tendency to move dirt around on the glass.  Even if you can successfully get every spec of dirt, you actually create a static charge on the glass with all of that rubbing, and that only turns around and attracts dirt on the newly cleaned glass.  Next, think about your antibacterial spray.  There are a number of products that do a fair job.  But your biggest opposition will be tough soap scum and milder.  So, you may find that you want more of a general purpose cleaner for the kitchen, and then something a bit tougher on the bathrom.
