I try and clean a few things a day like floors one day etc as I don't have a lot of time spare with a 9 week old baby
ReplyDeleteI am the best cleaner when having a visitor - so I would say invite someone over!
ReplyDeleteEucalyptus oil is great for removing sticky residue left by labels on bottles
ReplyDeleteMy best cleaning tip is do not have kids, pets or a tradesman partner as I am sure my house would be spotless without all of these things!! It would be boring but clean!!
ReplyDeleteTry not to let small jobs grow into big ones. If possible, tackle mess and chores sooner rather than later.
ReplyDeletehave as much "stuff" put away so it is easier to clean /vacuum/ dust etc - i try to do this but sometimes i dont succeed lol :)
ReplyDeleteNot totally a cleaning tip, but did you know that if you put just a drop of euc oil in the toilet before you go, it prevents any smells that may occur! You wont smell anything but eucalyptus.
ReplyDeleteI have a very untidy (clean but messy) house. I now put aside 20 mins a day to organise. It can be paperwork that needs filing, or a kitchen shelf that needs rearranging, or going through a pile of magazines and junk mail to toss out. I only do 20 mins a day, so I don't get overwhelmed and give up. Every day I feel very proud of having achieved one small thing which motivates me to do the same thing tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteEucalyptus oil, goes into my toddlers vaporiser for a good night sleep! scares the sniffles and cough away :-)
ReplyDeleteThe Bosisto’s Eucalyptus, has so many uses, I have just found its also great for removing stickers :)
ReplyDeletemy cleaning tip is light a match and let it burn for a few seconds in the toilet...it will definately remove all toilet smells
ReplyDeleteUse Bosisto's Eucalyptus spray on high chairs and car seats to keep germs at bay.
ReplyDeleteSalt is a great way of takling red wine stains
ReplyDeletePut your dishwasher on each night before bed so you start the day with an empty dishwasher preventing a build up of dirty dishes leaving your kitchen always clean.
ReplyDeleteTo keep stainless steel clean and shiny, use a mix of white vinegar and bicarb soda. It's a great cleaning mix for lots of jobs! It's always great to use natural products like those and eucalyptus oil wherever possible.
ReplyDeleteWipe finger marks off painted walls with sugar soap - this is a gentle but very effective mark remover!
ReplyDeleteBosisto’s Eucalyptus.Is there anything it can't do?
ReplyDeleteGreat for removing that permanent pen you thought was a whiteboard marker

ReplyDeleteMy best cleaning tip is to have the whole household involved, that way it's done in no time and we can have a fun day together after the chores are done :)

For stubborn black marks on floorboards or lino dab with eucalyptus and the marks will wipe away!
ReplyDeleteI use an old pair of socks and dance on the marks with the eucalyptus on them ;)
Terrific to get off those stubborn stickers - instantly gets rids of the goo left behind. I use it to wipe over 2nd hand books that the kids acquire. I wipe over the inside of the fridge with it - leaves a lovely fresh smell and works a treat.
ReplyDeleteRachel Kriss-Newell (rm.newell@bigpond.com.au) Thank you
I put a few drops of Bosistos in my laundry detergent, it makes my clothes smell fantastic!!!

White distilled vinegar is an effective cleaning agent and avoids using harsh chemical cleaners
ReplyDeletebjn1957{at}gmail{dot}com
A little olive oil of a soft cloth, removes finger prints and other marks from stainless steel with ease.
ReplyDeleteuse a timer - I have been using 15 minute blocks for a little while now in my cleaning routine. A task seems much more do-able if it is only short. It also helps with the kids if I tell them I am cleaning for 15 minutes, when the timer finishes I can come and play then. The kids will often occupy themselves for longer than that and I can sometimes even fit in another 15 minute session before they come looking for me again.
ReplyDeleteI use a 50/50% water/vinegar solution on my shower glass to cut through water marks that even bleach won't remove.
ReplyDeleteUse baby wipes to wipe down skirtings and window sills.
ReplyDeleteGo around the house with a laundry basket and pick up all of the toys, clothes, and other scattered items, then put them away once you have gathered them all up. Makes it much easier than walking back and forth into each room.
I spray Bosisto's eucalyptus spray over the toilet to get rid of germs. Makes the bathroom smell nice too and, as a bonus, if I spray just before visitors arrive, the scent makes them think I've done more cleaning than I actually have!
ReplyDeleteI wipe eucalyptus oil inside of my drawers as it keeps the silverfish away (and the clothes smell wonderfully fresh!)
ReplyDeleteI use a little bit of eucalyptus, lemon and water to freshen benches and table tops
ReplyDeleteHave a shoe free house. It saves dirt, grime and bacteria coming into your home
ReplyDeleteI love using Baby Wipes to clean my floor - easy have enough "cleaner" in them to get the toughest of mess off the floor.
ReplyDeleteThey are also great for taking food and removing stains from clothes and furniture.

ReplyDeleteYou mean besides Don't have kids? Do smaller cleans of 1 room or section of the house a day so when it comes to doing the big clean it will be easy and won't take long to tackle.

Best cleaning tip is write a list for the hubby, so you are not doing it all!
ReplyDeleteGreat site and amazing comp guys - Bosisto's Products are great (my youngest has allergies and these products are gentle enough to use around him). Thanx Actually Amy. :)
ReplyDeleteStains in clothing can be easily be removed with a paste of eucalyptus oil and liquid washing detergent. Rub it in to the stain with some thing like an old toothbrush, leave for 10 minutes and then wash as normal.
ReplyDeleteHuggies baby wipes are the best for cleaning marker and permanent marker pens off children!
ReplyDeleteA little every day makes the job of cleaning more manageable! And the best stain remover I have found is Eucalyptus Oil...it also have the added advantage of making your house smell divine :)
ReplyDeleteI have so many cleaning tips to share but won't hijack your page! One of my favourites is using the dishwasher to clean the rangehood filters. They come out sparkling clean and completely grease-free. I also lightly spray the bathroom walls and shower recesses with Bosistos eucalyptus spray for mould prevention - it really works!
ReplyDeleteMy wife is disabled and so the housework is up to me and the kids. Our kids don't get internet or TV each day until they have done their daily chores. Our house has never been cleaner!
ReplyDeleteA little euclyptus in my hot water I mop my floors with gets the whole house smelling fresh
ReplyDeleteI try to focus on one room, and one task daily. That way jobs don't build up too much!
ReplyDeleteA drop of eucalyptus helps clean marker off a white board!
ReplyDelete20 min power cleans!
ReplyDeletePut things away in the right places, try to make the rest of the family do it too. If things pile up in your lounge/dining areas, return them to their right rooms each night.
ReplyDeletePet related cleaning - sprinkle baking soda in litter trays, it helps absorb smells and keeps it fresher for longer.
ReplyDeleteAll shoes have to be left by the door - saves the carpet, cleaning and hours of back-breaking work!

diluted eucalptus oil in a spray bottle is awesome for spot cleaning.
ReplyDeleteBicarb Soda is great for pouring down drains that stink!! Add hot boiling water and let that stinky smell evaporate away.
ReplyDeleteTrain your kids young to help with the clean and take responsibility for their own rooms and items.
ReplyDeleteI clean out the light fittings regularly to remove dust, bugs and spider webs which dull the brightness coming out of the light.
ReplyDeletehairspray great for getting ink or permanent marker off things especially my leather couch after my daughter draws on it aghhhhh
ReplyDeleteA couple of times a week and once or twice on the weekends, I call out "clean up time". I get hubby and the three kids to all do a 15 minute speed clean. It's amazing how much gets done with a little bit of help.
ReplyDeleteDid you know that acetone kills mould spores? Run it over the areas in the bathroom that water sits to help avoid the spread.
ReplyDeleteGreat around outside doors & windows as deters flies & mozzies.
ReplyDeleteClean red wine stains with white wine! A good excuse to keep wine stocked at home!
ReplyDeleteBicarb mixed with a little water is great to clean stubborn stains on bench tops etc.
ReplyDeleteWhite vinegar is great for cleaning mirrors and windows.
ReplyDeleteBe organised! Have a place for everything and you won't get overwhelmed when tidying!
ReplyDeleteSet the clock for yourself and do a "ten minute tidy" I am amazed at what gets done in just 10 minutes. I also find this works amazing with my childre and with 4 of them a LOT gets done in just 10 minutes!
ReplyDeleteEucalyptus oil is great for removing sticker residue from mirrors and windows, particularly car rego stickers!
ReplyDeleteThe power of steam
ReplyDeleteI always use Bosisto’s Eucalyptus Spray in the bathroom, on the toilet, sink and of course, the door handles, which are most often contaminated with germs.
ReplyDeleteI put some music on loud, and "go for it" for 15 minutes.. I promise myself a coffee and a tim tam when I'm finished..
ReplyDeleteClean as you go, that way there isn't a big take at the end of the day/week.
ReplyDeleteI use tea tree oil with hot water when cleaning the floors...shiny, clean floors that are disinfected and smell great!
ReplyDeleteI like to do a room a day that way i don't havr to spend a entire day cleaning the house!
