I am going to sub your channel, I am a guy who actually enjoys cleaning and being in a clean space and house, I can definitely use tips on cleaning, funny story for you, my brother and we’re 15 and 12, we were up late on a school night cleaning our room, dad came back and said go to bed now, it’s late, after we figured he and mom were sleeping around 2:00am we completely rearranged our room and knocked the tv off the dresser, about a good 5’ fall, we were worried that it woke dad and mom up, we were trying to hurry and pick it up and get in bed and fake sleep, it didn’t wake them up, so back to cleaning we went, needless to say we had a rough time getting up for school in the morning but it was worth it, we got in trouble for staying up cleaning so late 😂😂😂
This is my first visit. Thanks so much for the tip about opening up a window to let a mattress, 'breathe.' I do this in the mornings before making the bed, but have never incorporated into the bed changing. I struggle with buying cleaning products, since I am trying to reduce plastic, so I appreciated your takes on homemade cleaners, but also the importance of enzyme cleaners. Stay safe in Canada!
Great timing! I paused your video after the first segment and cleaned my sink and shower. My clean bathroom and I salute you and wish you a happy and healthy 2023! Thank you from Chilly Virginia
I tried every thing to remove the soap scum from my fiber glass shower, the vinegar, water & dawn dish soap didn't work for me but I tried Krud Kutter & that worked, it took me 2 times but it all came off & now its a breeze to keep clean. Same thing with my hood vent & filter, I tried every thing to remove the years of dried on caked up grease but the Krud Kutter melted all of it off. I just let it sit on the surfaces for about 10 or 15 minutes & I was Amazed how all of it came off I ran it under hot water no using a cleaning brush to get in all the cracks & crevices of hood vent filter, but looks brand new 😊
I haven't looked to see if you have done this yet, but it would be great for the new year. Cleaning schedule like how often to vacuum, wash sheets, clean oven etc. of like a spring cleaning schedule. I would love some sort of list I can check off. Love your videos!
I appreciate all the tips you gave here for cleaning. I have certain cleaning tasks that I don't mind doing, like washing dishes and vacuuming, but others I just HATE! I guess the ones most tedious for me are the "deep cleaning" jobs, like the tub/shower and really anything that involves a lot of scrubbing. In general though, I don't mind cleaning the kitchen too much, but I HATE cleaning the bathroom! However, much as I hate it, it is SO nice to have a clean bathroom 😀.
I LOVE cleaning the bathroom! My bathroom is always immaculate. I have IBS, so I sometimes have to spend a lot of time in, and I want it to be a nice place! The job I hate is mopping the kitchen floor. I've always been hopeless at it. My mum used to take the mickey out of me, because once I'd mopped, it looked absolutely NO different!
@@itsacarolbthing5221 I know what you're saying I had Ibs and so does my daughter and her boyfriend so needless to say bathroom has to be cleaned all the time!!
Thank you Melissa for sharing all these tips for cleaning different areas of home. Cleaning the bathroom. and mopping the floor are the biggest challenges for me.
I would LOVE to see how you clean carpets to remove dirt, especially pet stains from wet dirty paws (doesn’t even have to be complicated!) recommendations on which vacuum to use/buy etc. there are so many out there.
I spot clean with washing up liquid and a hard loofah or a scrubbing brush. Those long ended defuzzing hand held tools are great for lifting the pile and getting deeper in. Vacuum cleaner wise my Dyson is very old now but I hear good things about the Shark.
My cleaning challenge is having very limited energy and some mobility issues. I cannot get on my knees. I wish I could afford a service to do the heavy duty cleaning but I cannot. I've figured out that I need to really purge my home of all the "stuff" I really don't need so there is less to clean and less stuff to clean around. I'd love a resource for reasonably priced products/tools that will get the job done and what home goods/materials are easiest to take care of. Tired of wasting money on things that dont work or can't afford to keep maintained.
Hello from Florida 🌴, and Happy Holidays to all! 🌲🎅 Long time subscriber, and always enjoy your videos, even if they're repeated from time to time! I especially appreciated your segment on keeping pillows clean and healthy. It will be hard to part with my existing pillows, but I will treat myself to new ones, and donate the old ones to my local animal shelter. Thanks for all your helpful and motivating videos! 🇺🇸🇨🇦
Great tips Melissa 👍 Please share how to clean upholstery, carpets or bedding etc after cat hair ball throw ups or pet accidents in general. How to get rid of any stains or smells after such incidences? Thanks.
Thanks a lot! While wathcing this video I did follow your advice for both the oven cleaning and the bath curtain! They both had a very nice result! This baking soda makes wonders!!! I am so glad to have found your channel!!! My greedings from Greece!!! And Happy New Year to all!!!!
I love this Channel it's helping me a lot...I Will work as hotel Cleaner MSC And I haven't done before something like that . thank so much for your help to us over here..
I like your hands on approach. letting the product work in the bathroom was a game changer. Now I would like a bit of insight on how best to clean my space time efficiently and invoke a reasonable routine where I am not overwhelmed with only cleaning on a Saturday - chop it into smart dayly bits sutable for a working adult and a messy Teen - looking forward to your next video, Happy holidays
I help myself out with a vinegar spitz and wipe down with a soft cloth ( I use old face cloths) in the bathroom, sink, outer toilet, and shower 2 times a week. It takes 3=4 min and reduces the build-up, also the kitchen sink. A good habit is to dry the shower and chrome each use with said soft cloth.
Love your cleaning videos. Learn a lot every time. I would like to know the best way to clean window sills. I always struggle with it, so often put it off.
Love all these hacks BUT it pained me to see you scrub so hard at the glsss for the oven. All you have to do is get it wet and use a razor blade swipe slowly from let to right or right to left and all that gunk will come off so fast and no scrubbing needed!!! ❤ hope this helps! And the razor doesn’t scratch the glass or anything, just makes it clean!!
Sometimes when you just don't feel like doing something you should you put in lower wattage lightbulbs. So everything looks very romantic. So then you don't notice what you really should be doing. Just a humorous thought for the day after Christmas. I'm looking forward to listening to your video, but I had to go out to return some things from Costco.
@@cherryvaleleatherock6900 that's a good question. Or you could just put in one bulb with it should've been three. So if you divided by three into 25 that's something I don't know what. It's 3 AM and still fireworks going off in my neighborhood. No comment...
@@gailremp8389 - A good idea, Gail😁. I know what you mean about the fireworks. We're having rain tonight, and I just know the little darlings are waiting for tomorrow night to have their fun. 🤯 Happy New Year, Gail. May it be a good one.🙋♀️
Awesome video!! Something that will help that oven clean go a little easier. Do exactly what you did then spray dawn powerwash on top of the baking soda. It will bubble up a little and it starts to eat away at the grease. Just sort of gives the baking soda a boost.
Life is great now that my deep freezer is clean. Pot of hot water on top of a huge microfiber towel and close the top...amazing! 🤷♀️You've pretty much covered everything else for MY home...🤭👍💜 Thank you...
I enjoy watching your very helpful videos. I would like some helpful ideas on cleaning mini blinds. I have them in every room and hate cleaning them. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Best way you wash a clear shower curtain….technically a liner, but we use it like a “curtain”. We use this so that you can see and enjoy the gorgeous shower tile and wood work. We do not like glass doors….I spray it with and wipe it, but maybe you have an easier way?
I was wondering how you tackle hard water stains on granite or porous tile? Around sinks, and shower floors as well as faucets are my issue. Thank you!
Bon Ami is mild. Barkeeper's Friend is strong. ZUD is excellent for rust. Wear gloves for all of these, and never touch your eyes with any products on your fingers.
Great video! Thanks for all the helpful tips! Do you have any advice on cleaning the base of the toilet? It seems like no matter what I use, microfiber or paper towel there's always a stray hair or fuzz that just won't come off! It's like static cling or something and it drives me crazy.
Hi! I love your channel. I hear your voice and i start wiping things down. 🤣 Anyway. My worst job is cleaning my ceramic floor tiles. If i find something that cleans the tiles easily and nicely, they tend to be left with a dull layer, or a sticky or even slippery layer after drying. I just want to have clean tiles! 😭😭
Do you have any tips on a clean tidy home for someone with fibromyalgia and spinal problems, my brain wants to do it but my body doesn’t always cooperate lol xx
@Claire Wood: Thanks so much for asking these questions and how lovely to meet 'a sister like me'!! Add onto that very swollen feet and ankles/legs and I guess I will never be mountain climbing, tennis playing, or daily 2 hr. kayaking :( My mind still feels like doing it ALL (I was a bit of perfectionist, even helping others) but when one is 'beyond crying with pain' I think we have no choice but to try to get 'Cleaning Help'! Good luck Sweetie - I do so appreciate these wonderful tips tho': but it is so challenging to believe in 'Forever Young' Hugs to you ~ from the West Coast of Canada. Merry Christmas & lets make 2023 better -> we can pass these tips onto somebody who may help us
How do you know when to clean your tub? It looks spotless to me…before you even started! Mine is disgusting - it’s so old, it has mold stains, and stains from those non-slip strips. But I do love to watch someone else clean!
I am a rancher and I have a bunch of horses and I’ve had them all my life I’ve had my share of falls over the years and both of my shoulders are messed up permanently sometimes the horse wins sometimes I win meanwhile have you thought about getting the scrubby‘s that go onto your drill they work really good for me and you don’t have to do the work you just pull the trigger and move it back-and-forth takes a lot of the effort out of scrubbing like you said let the product do it for you
Thanks for the great cleaning tips! Have you any advice for limescale build up in a hard water area? I use vinegar on my stainless steel bathroom taps etc but it doesn’t seem to get it fully off.
My fan above my stove has gotten very greasy the vents become caked in it which can cause the grease to pool and drip at the top. I’ve never tried a enzyme cleaner before. Maybe I can take the metal vents out and try that!
I am interested in waste sorting especially in organic waste. I noticed in one of your videos that you used kind of bin for composting in your kitchen. Is this a specific one or do you have any specific idea on how to do this kind of sorting or composting while living in appartement? I don't want my organic waste go to the landfills. And greetings from Lebanon 🇱🇧😊😀❤ I hate chores more than you do
Hi Melissa. I have a question. We have cream colored leather seats in the car. Or at least they used to be cream. After several years they have gotten dirty. How do I clean and condition the leather? This also could apply to my leather sofa. Thank you, Sherry. I love your cleaning hacks btw. 😊
Thanks for your tips. I’d love some ideas on cleaning blinds. We had a very wet summer and the blinds became quite mouldy - it was a lot of work to clean them and I’m still not happy with how they turned out.
The most effective way I know of is to put the blinds into the bathtub with a few inches of warm water and Mr. Clean or similar product. I wash them with a terry cotton cloth and after rinsing they can be hung over the shower rod.
I have white lower kitchen shaker cupboard doors that have dirt in the areas you're using a toothbrush on in this video. I've tried using dish soap & cleansers with my cleaning toothbrush, but they don't come clean. I have no idea on what to use to get the old stubborn crud off, as it was here 11 years ago when we moved in. Would Mrs, Meyer's baking soda cleanser work or should I use an enzyme cleaner, like you've mentioned here?
Any tips on cleaning non cleaning oven with mould in it? I forgot about a half pizza and garlic bread in there, and I don't use my oven often. It looked like a fluffy grotto in there. Obviously, I've disposed of the food and wiped the worst of the mould off. I need to properly clean it, but in would normally use either diluted bleach or diluted tea tree oil, but I'm worried about when I use the oven again. Suggestions, please?
I have hard water. Unfortunately, I have stains on the bottom of my toilet. Ive tried to scrub with a brush, put efferdent to no avail. Any help? Thank you for all your tips.
I would really like some recommendations for my teenager’s bedroom. She just won’t do anything and it makes it even a bigger chore if I decide to help.
Get a new teenager. (Just kidding, I couldn't resist - lol.) I don't know how she did it, but my mother used to push anything that wasn't in it's place in my bedroom, up against the back of my bedroom door, so that I could hardly open it after school 😁. Or she'd pile everything in the middle of my bed, and I wasn't allowed to go to sleep until I put everything away. She was something. She was the Greatest, but she was something. Hope that helps😊.
Do you give her an allowance? My son had to implement a coupon system for my grandson, earn coupons for chores done, and spend coupons to use their own stuff. Short of that closed-door policy, you can't see through a closed door.
Do you have any shower caddy recommendations? Something that discourages me to scrub my tub/shower as often is removing all the bottles and I don’t have any built in shelves. I can’t use the ones that hang over the shower head because my shower head would start falling off over time.
As requested, what is the most difficult cleaning issue for me? Removing odors from launderable clothing, like men's T-shirts, sheets, even dog bedding. I use vinegar in the first rinse. Sometimes I do a regular wash followed up with a vinegar wash, using a lot of vinegar in place of detergent. The steam cycle in my washer seems to help. Is there any single product that can be added to the wash to truly-effectively remove odors?
I change my sheets once a week (I sleep alone) ☹But I wash my pillow protectors ever other week. That's when I spray my pillows with Lysol spray and make sure its dried well. I rotate my mattress once a month. I wash my comforter once a month. Does that seem normal?
Dusting. I live in New Mexico and the dust piles up daily. I try to keep up but it’s exhausting and annoying. I have ceiling fans that spread the dust into every tiny spot. What products do you use. Also, when dusting a large are full of tiny frames and figurines. Do you remove everything and clean the one flat surface? Or pick up each item then clean under it? Thanks
Two questions. First in the bathroom you tested the baking soda on the tub but I didn't see you use it. Did I miss a step? Second in the oven I didn't see a heating coil on the bottom of the oven. Do they come out or did your just not have one? Sorry I feel like I should know this but I don't. thanks for your time and help.
For most ovens these days it literally tells you how to take the door apart to clean wll those glass panels and that obviously would not void any warranty. It's fairly easy to do, so do check your manual to see if that's an option. If your oven is new enough to still be under warranty, chances are the door can be easily taken apart for cleaning.
Once while cleaning the oven, I went to lift the element up to spray underneath and it just snapped in half at the touch of my hand. Stone cold, of course, not wet etc and I've cleaned an oven about 100x in my life before and after, but this was a new oven and this was only the 2nd or 3rd time cleaning it. Thankfully it was still under warranty but even the technician was like "how did this happen?" It was shocking.
How do you clean the bottom of the tub when it’s textured. I have a problem getting that clean. I already spray it and let the product sit. I don’t want to risk removing the finish. (Like I have done in the past.)
I am going to sub your channel, I am a guy who actually enjoys cleaning and being in a clean space and house, I can definitely use tips on cleaning, funny story for you, my brother and we’re 15 and 12, we were up late on a school night cleaning our room, dad came back and said go to bed now, it’s late, after we figured he and mom were sleeping around 2:00am we completely rearranged our room and knocked the tv off the dresser, about a good 5’ fall, we were worried that it woke dad and mom up, we were trying to hurry and pick it up and get in bed and fake sleep, it didn’t wake them up, so back to cleaning we went, needless to say we had a rough time getting up for school in the morning but it was worth it, we got in trouble for staying up cleaning so late 😂😂😂
This is so wholesome omg 😭
Um. If that’s the worst going on at 2am and after in your house, I KNOW your parents are quite proud of their two amazing boys. Keep being you!
I have lower back pain as well as arthritis in my hands and knees. Could you offer more cleaning tips that are for people like me?

Hi,
I don’t see the cleaner you recommend for cleaning grease off of cabinets.
I love long videos. It teaches things as well as accompany me while I clean the kitchen 🥰
Me too!
Thank you for being reasonable about the toilet brush thing!!
Tiles and tubs are easy -- it's the grout and silicon sealer type stuff that's a problem.
Thank you for pouring your overflow on us. I definitely learned from you this past year.

The most effective way I know of is to put the blinds into the bathtub with a few inches of warm water and Mr. Clean or similar product. I wash them with a terry cotton cloth and after rinsing they can be hung over the shower rod.
I have white lower kitchen shaker cupboard doors that have dirt in the areas you're using a toothbrush on in this video. I've tried using dish soap & cleansers with my cleaning toothbrush, but they don't come clean. I have no idea on what to use to get the old stubborn crud off, as it was here 11 years ago when we moved in. Would Mrs, Meyer's baking soda cleanser work or should I use an enzyme cleaner, like you've mentioned here?
I would love to know how to clean the buildup around my faucets. Please attach the DIY cleaning solutions you spoke about. Thank you!
I've always soaked the area with vinegar, let it sit, then come back with an old toothbrush and wiping cloth.
Any tips on cleaning non cleaning oven with mould in it? I forgot about a half pizza and garlic bread in there, and I don't use my oven often. It looked like a fluffy grotto in there. Obviously, I've disposed of the food and wiped the worst of the mould off. I need to properly clean it, but in would normally use either diluted bleach or diluted tea tree oil, but I'm worried about when I use the oven again. Suggestions, please?
I have hard water. Unfortunately, I have stains on the bottom of my toilet. Ive tried to scrub with a brush, put efferdent to no avail. Any help? Thank you for all your tips.
Would like an answer for that too
Do you have any tips for cube shapped sink? Dirt seems to always get caught on the corners.
What do you suggest for cleaning an onyx shower?
You look beautiful as always! ❤
I would really like some recommendations for my teenager’s bedroom. She just won’t do anything and it makes it even a bigger chore if I decide to help.
Get a new teenager. (Just kidding, I couldn't resist - lol.) I don't know how she did it, but my mother used to push anything that wasn't in it's place in my bedroom, up against the back of my bedroom door, so that I could hardly open it after school 😁. Or she'd pile everything in the middle of my bed, and I wasn't allowed to go to sleep until I put everything away. She was something. She was the Greatest, but she was something. Hope that helps😊.
Do you give her an allowance? My son had to implement a coupon system for my grandson, earn coupons for chores done, and spend coupons to use their own stuff. Short of that closed-door policy, you can't see through a closed door.
Can we use the wool on the vents for cleaning or will it scratch ? The bathroom shower oned.
I could use some advice on keeping cat areas clean, i.e. litter box surroundings, pet food dishes on floor, pet beds.
What are the spray bottles that you always use?
I’m planning to buy a mopping stick …
Plz suggest some with wringer bucket or not … some brands plzz❤thx
Do you have any shower caddy recommendations? Something that discourages me to scrub my tub/shower as often is removing all the bottles and I don’t have any built in shelves. I can’t use the ones that hang over the shower head because my shower head would start falling off over time.
Merry Christmas idol @melissa maker thank you for the tips, your fan from Philippines 🇵🇭
As requested, what is the most difficult cleaning issue for me? Removing odors from launderable clothing, like men's T-shirts, sheets, even dog bedding. I use vinegar in the first rinse. Sometimes I do a regular wash followed up with a vinegar wash, using a lot of vinegar in place of detergent. The steam cycle in my washer seems to help.
Is there any single product that can be added to the wash to truly-effectively remove odors?
I change my sheets once a week (I sleep alone) ☹But I wash my pillow protectors ever other week. That's when I spray my pillows with Lysol spray and make sure its dried well. I rotate my mattress once a month. I wash my comforter once a month.
Does that seem normal?
How would you tackle a mattress pad?
Dusting. I live in New Mexico and the dust piles up daily. I try to keep up but it’s exhausting and annoying. I have ceiling fans that spread the dust into every tiny spot. What products do you use. Also, when dusting a large are full of tiny frames and figurines. Do you remove everything and clean the one flat surface? Or pick up each item then clean under it? Thanks
Try a Swiffer duster
I'm in Nevada and have the same dust problem. I've been chasing it for years and I don't think I'm going to win. But I keep trying.😊
Where's the link for Bio Kleen for kitchen cabinets? Is there a difference between the spray and the foam?
Two questions. First in the bathroom you tested the baking soda on the tub but I didn't see you use it. Did I miss a step? Second in the oven I didn't see a heating coil on the bottom of the oven. Do they come out or did your just not have one? Sorry I feel like I should know this but I don't. thanks for your time and help.
I have the same configuration, where the broiler is mounted at the top of the oven cavity, and the drawer below is for storage.
Why do you prefer GRANITE COUNTER TOPS TO QUARTZ COUNTER TOPS? Thanks 🙏
For most ovens these days it literally tells you how to take the door apart to clean wll those glass panels and that obviously would not void any warranty. It's fairly easy to do, so do check your manual to see if that's an option. If your oven is new enough to still be under warranty, chances are the door can be easily taken apart for cleaning.
I have faux wood blinds. The blinds on the back door has accumulated grease from the kitchen. What is the best way to clean this? TIA
What about bathroom (shower) mould in the caulking
No link to enzyme cleaner...
Once while cleaning the oven, I went to lift the element up to spray underneath and it just snapped in half at the touch of my hand. Stone cold, of course, not wet etc and I've cleaned an oven about 100x in my life before and after, but this was a new oven and this was only the 2nd or 3rd time cleaning it. Thankfully it was still under warranty but even the technician was like "how did this happen?" It was shocking.
How do you clean those cloths to get even oven residue off of them?
How do you clean the bottom of the tub when it’s textured. I have a problem getting that clean. I already spray it and let the product sit. I don’t want to risk removing the finish. (Like I have done in the past.)
