- Set a cleaning schedule
Cleaning is not a one-step process. It doesn't take just sweeping to make your entire house shining clean. A day may not even be enough to get everything done. That is why it is important to schedule your cleaning.
Knowing what chore you should do first will help you set what task to finish today and tomorrow and the next day and so on and so forth. This can help you develop a daily cleaning habit which is a big factor in maintaining cleanliness.
- Clean from top to bottom
Following this pattern can save you from re-applying green cleaning products. If you start cleaning from top, take for example the ceiling, the dust and dirt that you can take from it will all fall to the floor. Now if you first cleaned your floor before the ceiling this will make you repeat your floor cleaning.
- Keep windows open
Keeping the windows of your house open while cleaning provides proper insulation. It allows the continuous flow of clean air in and toxins out.
- Gather all cleaning supplies and materials first
Before you start cleaning, make sure that you have all your tools and materials needed within reach. It will save you from going back and forth to collect them every time they're needed. This cuts the time and energy required to finish cleaning.
- Provide doormats
Everybody goes everywhere. And who knows what's there to stepped on? There could be anything and this anything can be a source of harmful micro-organisms. Placing doormats can at least minimize the germs that can be carried into your house which means lesser cleaning time and lesser health risk.
- Focus on your cleaning goal
Focusing on your cleaning goal means not getting yourself distracted. Avoid lingering into an interesting piece you found while cleaning. For example, you stumbled into an old photograph which brings back memories or an unread book which you know be a great read. Put them aside and finish your cleaning first before you spend time enjoying them.

Hydrogen Peroxide... Have you ever known a hospital to smell like bleach? You can use it as an all purpose cleaner.
Showers Lemon ... Cut a fresh lemon and half rub it on shower walls... Sprinkle Baking Soda and use a towel to rub the walls. The lemon removes soap scum while the Baking soda is a mild abrasive... Wash down with Rubbing Alcohol... When you get a good scrub and no residue is left and it tiles are dry use a turtle wax on the tiles and buff off.. this will help the water bead off the wall and you won't have the build up of soap scum and you won't have to scrub it as much you will still have to clean it ... but it won't take as long. BE CAREFUL!!! Do not put the wax on the tub it is VERY VERY SLICK!!!
toilets... Couple of Efferdent fizzing tablets... Denture Cleaning Tablets....
Floors... Hydrogen peroxide...
Urine... Carpet... Blot up excess urine... with paper towels or old towel.. sprinkle baking soda and then spray with vinegar the fizzing brings the urine to the surface and then blot with towel...
Here is a few ideas....
