Cleaning is not a pleasant task for many of us, but luckily there are some tips that you can use to make it much easier (picture in stock).
coffee filter
Coffee filters are a useful thing, according to Mangold, that could surprise many people.
Although most modern coffee machines do not have filters, they are perfect for cleaning televisions, phones and monitors.
He insisted that they are even better than paper towels because they are absorbent and do not leave lint on the surface.
olive oil
If you want to polish your wooden furniture, olive oil is just right for you.
"Olive oil can be used to polish wood furniture and even hide surface scratches, and it's a good alternative to traditional furniture polishing because it does not contain any chemical products," he said.
To polish and disinfect regularly, mix a few drops of olive oil in a glass container with five tablespoons of lemon juice.
Soak it in a soft cloth before applying it to the surface and let it dry.
For a complete cleaning and masking of the stains, mix equal portions of white vinegar and oil and let it soak on the surface.
After drying, polish the surface with a cloth so that the wood is almost as good as new.

baking powder
My chard said, and putting sheets on mattresses is not enough to keep them clean and germ-free.
Unfortunately, it is easy for them to pick up a lot of dirt and they are prone to mold.
Luckily you do not need expensive products, you just have to suck and bake baking soda.
First you need to vacuum the mattress to remove the dust and then sprinkle with baking soda before you let it rest for at least an hour.
Baking soda absorbs moisture and odors and disinfects the fabric. The last step is then vacuuming the mattress to remove the dust.
candle wax
Mr. Mangold suggested using candle wax to clean the grout.
"Everyone knows that grouting is one of the most unpleasant tasks, as it takes a long time to cleanse them and the results are not always the way we want them," he said.
"Just take a white candelabrum and rub it firmly into the mortar to make sure all the cracks are covered." Check the surface several times if necessary.
In this way, the wax prevents the deposition of water and dirt in hard to reach places and the growth of mold.
