Spring-cleaning tips<br />
RANGEHOOD filters<br />
are a prime grease trap;<br />
soak them in hot water with<br />
baking soda and detergent,<br />
suggests Satya Bourgeot of<br />
Pristine Professional Cleaning<br />
(pristinecleaning.com.au). “Give<br />
cast iron trivets, oven trays<br />
and racks the same<br />
treatment,” she says.<br />
After sweeping or vacuuming, mop the<br />
kitchen floor with a specialist timber<br />
or tile floor cleaner. Or make your own<br />
solution from six drops of dishwashing<br />
liquid or half a cup of white vinegar<br />
mixed into half a bucket of warm water.<br />
Dream<br />
clean<br />
Spring is the perfect<br />
time to tackle a whole<br />
house clean and enjoy<br />
the sparkling results<br />
The prospect of a major spring<br />
clean can seem daunting,<br />
but the trick is to break the<br />
job into achievable tasks and<br />
create a to-do list for each room, which<br />
is immensely satisfying to tick off. To<br />
help get you started, we’ve compiled a<br />
cheat sheet, complete with expert tips,<br />
to inspire you to clean like a pro.<br />
KITCHEN<br />
This super busy family<br />
hub is where everyday<br />
dirt, cooking grime<br />
and food scraps gather<br />
DECLUTTER as you clean, suggests Rowena<br />
Jongejan of cleaning agency Family Clean<br />
(familyclean.com.au). “In the kitchen, remove<br />
the contents of drawers and cupboards before<br />
wiping shelves and doors, tossing out what<br />
you no longer use as you go. This will free<br />
up space for well-organised storage.”<br />
