    It's important to think about the kinds of disposable gloves you use while cleaning. For instance, one of the most commonly-used gloves are latex-based disposable gloves, which are usually used in food prep jobs. The best gloves to use for cleaning, in my opinion, are nitrile gloves. The main difference between these two gloves, is that the food-prep (typically latex-based) gloves only protect what you touch from the possible germs on your hands, not the other way around. Nitrile gloves are key when handling harsh chemicals, and/or bodily fluids such as blood because they protect your hands from harmful substances or contagions. Working in hotels has taught me the importance of knowing the difference between these kinds of disposable gloves.

    • @mrsagathahudson5227

I recently got a bad case of cough and realized using store bought cleaning products really aggravated it. So ever since I started cleaning with natural stuff; I no longer kill myself trying to clean. I seriously want to thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with the rest of us. 😊

      @@GoogleAccount-oe9im I have an old shark handheld and a shark mop. I also have a Haan sweeper mop and a Haan do everything steamer that is built like an old canister vacuum. All of mine are older models that I have had for years. the shark handheld is huge, one of the first made. It has a canister with a shoulder strap and a hose that comes off it where the attachments fit. It comes with a mop. The big Haan has the handheld attachments as well as a mop head. I can do walls, ceilings, and carpet with that big boy! I use each for different tasks. The big boys are more for full house cleaning, spring cleaning, big tasks. the shark mop is more like my weekly mop when things are the normal dirty or if I need fast cleaning. I don't use the shark handheld for mopping. The Haan might be a huge beast but I've used that monster to rid the house of fleas before, it gets much hotter and makes better steam. the shark is more for every day. the Haan is build better and heavier duty.

    I use Norwex everything!! I love their products. They have been a lifesaver so many times. There was one time when my house was a complete disaster, and then my grandma wanted to come over. I had no idea how I was going to clean the house in time, but I had some samples from Norwex. I thought I could try them. They are amazing! They made my house look amazing! My favorite one of their products is their window cloth. Instead of having to use a cleaner to clean windows, you just get the cloth wet, wipe down the window and put the cloth in the washer! I love it so much!!

Also have a frenchie and three cats, and the floors are mostly clean running them alternate the whole week. They're a serious investment but the return is wonderful!

    Coconut oil for everything! We recently installed new floors which got stained by something oil/grease based and would not budge with soap. But I slapped some coconut oil on it and it came out immediately! In addition, I love coconut oil for removing sticker residue. Also, I noticed that you touched the toilet with your disposable gloves and then touched the spray bottle D: !! Doesn't that defeat the purpose of using gloves? I wouldn't recommend plastic spray bottles for essential oils because the oil tends to seep into the plastic making it stain/smell like that EO. Plus, EO's tend to degrade plastic and many oils tend to deteriorate when exposed to sunlight.

    Before I bought my first Roomba I loved the Bissel sweeper. I had 3 or 4 (lost, misplaced, stolen) and although it doesn't clean as well as a vacuum it was always at hand. It was replaced by the vacuum but not completely, specially for quick pickups (kitty litter material, cereal, yerba mate, dog food). For dust I use a Dyson like yours, but the Bissel is always ready and doesn't require batteries.

    Melissa, the tool that you brought me to knowing more about is microfiber. Though I haven't bought your clothes, which I'm seriously thinking of doing sometime in the near future, as you spoke about the type of microfiber and the quality of how strong and week some maybe and you are right because I noticed it myself. But I use microfiber clothes for everything when I clean now. Also the essential oils, as I use them when I make my own version of castile/cleaning solution soap. I learned more about dyi cleaning solutions from you. Thank you.

No more sweeping then mopping. I do it all at once. It takes care of pet accidents too this is by far the best piece of equipment I’ve ever owned!

    We recently bought a Dyson stick vacuum and I find myself cleaning my floors more often! Before I felt like it was a hassle to use a large vacuum/broom/dustpan and a waste of time cause it's just pushing debris in the air and all around! So gross! So now that I have this vacuum, myself, husband and the kids grab it and so effortlessly clean up messes etc. Also I am really interested in that fabric sponge you mentioned in the video, I wanna try that out!

    Hoover Linx cordless vac, about $120, I have the older one in the basement, newer upstairs. Found a deal on a Dyson canister vac for the baseboards or heavier vacuuming occasionally.

    I like 3M Sponges with no scratch pad.
    Also found long, narrow Bottle-Brushes at hardware store. They were designed to clean a tea pot spout (maybe if you use loose leaf tea??) - but they are REALLY useful for cleaning the gunk out of bathroom sink drains!
    Euwwh! Green slime buildup from soap scum and toothpaste! And then follow with baking soda & vinegar, final rinse with hot water 💓

    I recently found a (large) All Purpose Spray Bottle (name printed on bottle) at Target that seems ikemit is very good quality, and is comfortable. This was after buying more expensive ones at two different hardward stores that were supposed to be high qualtiy. . . and were NOT! Great video Melissa :)

    Hands down my favorite cleaning product is my Bona floor cleaning system. Really just a mop with a tank and great cleaning pads. Hardwood is a big investment, so I try to take care of it. The Bona liquid cleans and brings back the shine without hard scrubbing.

    I like using the combination of Castile soap, borax, super washing soda, essential oils and distilled water to clean with. Cleans the microwave effortlessly!

    I have been trying to give you some of the neat things I do when I am cleaning. I do not use sponges where I live because they don't dry well or stay clean. I use microfiber clothes that I buy in the automotive section. I use white for glass and Windows, blues for stoves, counters, and red for toilets. I use grey and a real plush yellow to and other shades for other products. I also have a bottle brush that I put soap on to wash dishes and only rinse the soap out when it is dirty. I have a pattern for cleaning toilets and for folding my cloth too so the used side always stays to the inside when I put it in my pocket between toilets. 1st fold the microfiber cloth in 1/2 the fold it in 1/2 the other way so you have 1/4 showing, when you fold it to put it away fold it so it 1/8 X 1/4 to close it. As for the toilet, lightly mist the top, tank, both sides of both parts of the seats and then the rim of the toilet. Next go back to the top with your red cloth and wipe the top until it is dry and shinny then move on to the tank and make sure it is dry and shinny before you move onto to the next part of the seat and then on the the rim. Now my cloth is damp enough to wipe all of the base of the toilet starting on one side at the very back and coming to the front and then pass the cloth off to the other hand to keep going all the way to the back. If you need to rest your hand on the rim so you can move safety and smoothly don't forget to rewipe the area where you put your hand so it it print free. I prefer Lysol spray( crisp linen aerosol ) with a very lite mist to wipe dry for a clean shine but I also buy the concentrate and buy a bottle that gives me a very fine mist. If I have a Nasty toilet I pre-clean with a wipey and throw it away to keep my cloth as clean as possible and then I clean it as normal. If a toilet hasn't been used when you clean the next week just mist and wipe it down so it stays nice and clean. Please flush after you us the brush inside the bowl and rewipe the rim if spotted so it is spotlessly clean. Same for stoves but use the thick yellow microfiber cloth to buff it out for a final shine ( Costco, thick yellow). Grey for dishes at home or for cleaning stainless ( buff with yellow). I also use a weird shade of blue for a special sealer and buff with my yellow that I tuck into my belt so it is alway handy.

    Mimi Ramone, I use half white vinegar, half peroxide for most cleaning followed by a plain water rinse. I may add a little blue Dawn if necessary. I will use dilute bleach on countertops, toilets or to spot clean somewhere if need be. There are fumes, and I don't have my birds or cats in the same room while I'm cleaning and I turn on the central fan or open windows to ventilate when possible.

    I just found your channel and love the tips. I have to say I researched vacuums for 2 years b4 I bought a new one because they are not something I want to purchase every year. I love my vac!! I chose the Shark battery operated upright that comes with a 2nd rechargeable battery and is detachable to a handheld. It came with 4 additional tools, runs for 20+ minutes on high power and cleans amazingly. Another plus is no more expensive bags to buy ever! The dust receptacle pops open and you place it over your trash. Done. I also found a coupon for Kohl's for it and got an additional amount off for opening a charge account, making it very affordable. Win-Win for everyone!

    Barbers spray bottles are SPLENDID for cleaning. When I was in the navy we got metal barbers spray bottles when we cleaned the head. They can be a little pricey but they are WELL worth the money.

    Pro tip I learned a long time ago: When shopping for a new vacuum cleaner (including affordable cordless models!), go to places like Best Buy that have floor models and see which ones are dinged up and have dust in the nooks and crannies, etc. At close, the employees use the floor models to clean their section, and the ones that look the most used are the favorites.
    I thought that was neat and just wanted to share.
    For the record, my Shark Rocket stick vac still thrills me now 3 years in. Chronic pain, mobility issues, multiple pets, living in a tiny space (230 sq/ft) on a muddy farm and I have zero complaints. I loved it in my previous 4 bedroom home, too. The kids thought it was fun to use, too, which made life a lot easier.
    I hope this helps someone!

    Thanks for the great tips. 👍👍
    I use Dr. Bronner castile soap (peppermint). I used to shower and wash my hair with it for allergy reasons, but it turned my hair to oily, which I don't like. So I'm still using it as a body wash. But I like your idea about using it for cleaning 🤔
    Also, essential oils, I use orange and lemon. I add them to the vinegar as a laundry softener 😁
    And peppermint essential oil with a bit of water in a stainless steel sprayer bottle to keep my house safe from spiders.. 😁
