Myth: kills 99 percent of germs

Almost all detergent promotes a version of it in their advertising. Truth? No more than a trick of marketing survey.

This means that the product has killed 99 percent of the germs, is investigated. This does not mean that 99 percent of all germs or even dangerous germs. In addition, studies have shown that water and soap is how well it works to eliminate germs.

Two Myth: The vinegar will clean everything

I'm a big fan of having the cleaning of vinegar and use it almost every day. That is, the vinegar will do on all surfaces the best work.

In particular vinegar is ideal for tiles, walls and bathrooms, but not as beneficial to natural stone, granite or wood.

Myth Three: Vacuum - carpets often ruined

I first heard as a child in the 1980s, growing up and like all myths on this list, the truth is not so simple.

Avoid vacuuming or synthetic wool carpet not too often. However, it is perfectly fine for most modern clean several times a week, if desired carpet. modern synthetic carpets are made of a solid material and no suction amount they take on a significant level.

Myth four: natural cleaning products are safe

The term "natural" is often used in marketing, means almost nothing. The fact that a product is labeled "natural" does not mean it is safe.

Individual cases; Ammonia is very natural and is composed of nitrogen and hydrogen elements. It is also very dangerous to your health if used slightly larger than a trace.

Myth five: Chlorine is the final clean

Contrary to popular belief, bleach is a disinfectant, not a cleaning agent. He has to kill a great job everything in its path, but do a terrible job of cleaning stains while this.

Most flatbed people refuse to believe. Citing examples of how private bathroom is to bleach. Actually, it is combined with lye soap foam cleaning is done. Therefore, reducing the amount of chlorine used. It is not helping your health or cleanliness.

Myth Six: Newspaper clean glass

Of course, if the glass is cleaned daily long enough, it will be cleaner. But it would be if you used the paper as Christmas.

You are better off, an abrasive or absorbent cloth. Both do a better job than the newspaper, and in less time.

Myth Seven: Febreze helps clean

This could not be more wrong! Febreze not clean or disinfect anything. it does is reward all your brain after they clean with a pleasant smell. This kind of thinking things is cleaner than they really are. The marketing geniuses behind it deserves a raise.

In this sense, as if you really clean the windows with newspaper, then by all means, keep doing it. If I but a little skepticism then created to take a moment to question their own beliefs. You can simply make your life easier.
