• Cleaning can be a real chore, but a necessity
  unless we want to live among filth and grime.
  However, just because its a necessity, doesnt
  mean that it should take up much of our time, in
  fact, most of us want it done and dusted as
  quickly as possible.
• The first step towards cleaning efficiently so
  that we can get on with the things we enjoy doing
  is to know which tools are right for the task.
  For example, using a feather duster to try and
  eliminate dust simply makes our task ten times
  harder, since it serves only to spread the dust
  from one surface to another. With a soft, damp
  cloth or microfiber duster, dust can be captured
  and removed, making the task that much simpler
  and quicker.

• Here is a brief guide to using the right tools
  for the right cleaning tasks
• Dont hit a wall while cleaning
• A vacuum cleaner is the most efficient tool for
  cleaning walls from top to bottom, provided it
  has the right attachments to enable you to reach
  up to the ceiling and work your way down. Sucking
  up the dust instead of moving it around, the job
  is carried out far quicker and far more
  effectively.

• Getting down to cleaning baseboards
• A damp cloth sprayed with a natural cleaning
  solution such as lemons and vinegar, or your
  favorite shop-bought solution, should do the
  trick when run over your baseboards to eliminate
  dust and dirt.
• Tackling trinkets and curios
• Make-up brushes or any type of small brush with
  natural bristles, are perfect for dusting in and
  around delicate ornaments, trinkets and curios
  without damaging them. Larger, more solid items
  can be lightly dusted with a microfiber duster.

• Eliminating dust from your electronics
• Dust is attracted to electronic items as if they
  were magnets, and it can quickly begin to make
  them look unsightly. However, wiping over them
  with a microfiber cloth and using a soft,
  long-handled brush to get into the nooks and
  crannies, should do the trick. Be sure to unplug
  the items before cleaning and use a vacuum
  cleaner to suck up dust and dirt from around the
  cords and vents.
• Cleaning soft toys
• Most soft toys can be popped into a large plastic
  bag with a cup of baking soda, to help draw out
  the dirt and dust.

• Once the top of the bag is secured, shake it
  vigorously, and youll find that the baking soda
  and static from the bag will draw out any
  unpleasant dirt. Then, take each item out and
  after shaking off the excess baking soda, use a
  vacuum cleaner attachment to eliminate the soda
  entirely.
• Venting your cleaning anger!
• The soft-brush attachment on a vacuum cleaner
  works wonders for removing heavy dust from vents,
  while a damp microfiber cloth applied afterwards,
  will help pick up any remaining dust and dirt.
  Some air conditioning filters can be removed and
  washed in hot, soapy water be sure to air dry
  them completely before putting them back.

• Dont go around in circles cleaning ceiling fans
• Place a large sheet or some newspaper underneath
  each fan before grabbing a step stool, climbing
  up and wiping off the dust with damp paper
  towels. Then, use a soft-bristled brush dipped
  into a mild cleanser to wipe the surface again
  and get it completely clean.
• With the right tools for the right cleaning job,
  a few annoying but otherwise straightforward
  tasks can be completed effectively and with ease.
  Remember that professional cleaning companies
  always have the right tools for the right
  cleaning jobs, so why not use their services
  instead?
