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 />
