Go Tanaka is not intended to be a lady - but after listening to his geek-on cleaning tips, the type of work that could not help it to find shows.
Tanaka is actually an artist (check his work here ), but I needed a job to keep the lights on. When his friends saw an offer for the cleaning company Greenhouse Two Bettys in Minneapolis, they sent the list immediately. He had his name written on it.
"I grew up in a very clean house, and that my life completely affected," said Tanaka. "I thought that might be true? A cleaning company that employed artists?" She was in.
Tanaka was cleaning houses two Bettys for a few years and has improved his game even more memory. We asked to reverse the habits that help you quickly and thoroughly cleaned. Try to take this, if your routine is a routine:
1. When cleaning the house, they think of a grid.
"I do this with small areas such as a mirror or a countertop, or large spaces, such as an entire floor." Said Tanaka. "Looking at the space divided into a grid, I needed something, and I'm not a place several times to make than necessary."
2. Clean up and down.
"If you do a spring cleaning, make the upper floors," said Tanaka. "In this way, you are not shaking the dust and dirt on everything you have cleaned."
3. Keep some foreign elements (but really useful!) Where cleaning.
"I often use washable cloth diapers as a polishing tool," Tanaka said. "You are truly amazing shiny things such as granite, mirrors and windows, and help you use less paper towels.
Tanaka is also a fan of microfibre cloths, but goes to the automotive industry, to buy them. "You will be much cheaper than those in the cleaning station."
And they understood some double duty using other cleaning tools, into the subsoil. "A knife is ideal for sweeping pathetic counter or dusty staircase as a member and can get into tight corners and want to use a pan plastic spatula to lift stuck plants in trouble -.! It saves me the finger"
4. Pens ropes.
"The electrical wires are a magnet for dust bunnies, so you'll want to cable tie them to prevent right or even transmitted to the ground dust accumulation."
5. It is based on hooks to keep things in order.
"People have good intentions with their system of organization, but often, the things in the tank still," says Tanaka. "I found it, I'm more catch on things (and I think other people are, too) so I like hooks."
6. Always squeegee shower.
Tanaka believes that maintaining your bathroom to fight as dry as possible mildew and soap scum buildup. "I Raclette also shower curtains, or the edge of the bar of the shower door."
7. jumps paint.
"Dust really like paint, so if you are sprayed typically on the outside. If you end up with a sticky, dusty in your bathroom, a design magic can help you to clean it."
8. shoes "home-alone".
"Taking off shoes at the door really helps to keep dirt out of the house. In winter I go around the house in slippers and in the summer, I flip-flops."
9. Failure cooking is used to start the cleaning.
"I love it when seated dinner knowing that all I can do is clean the plates," said Tanaka. She has no time watching the pot boiling. When the food is cooked, put on clean counter thorough preparation Tools and the ingredients in. "
10. It is immediately detected.
"Since it is the more it is difficult to remove it," says Tanaka Is not wipe up the truth and grab that stain, if you find a place - .. you can sprinkle on even days before it another load power.
11. Stresses orderly disorder, until you pull or storage.
"The smaller tasks such as straightening a stack of magazines, the setting of a stack of mail or by folding a blanket not devalue," Tanaka said. "They feel their own space, even if you have no time to really mess".
12. She cleaned a little every day.
"People get to lose in the details, but it is best to see the big picture," he said. "I spend every day 15 minutes from storage, cleaning countertops and other tasks quick cleaning my mental well-being and deep cleaning makes it much easier to handle to improve later."
13. hear podcasts during cleaning.
Although Tanaka really enjoy how clean is the type of physical task that you time to be totally disconnected (although she calls "meditation") is also an excellent opportunity to take advantage of a little passive entertainment. "I want to listen This American Life , Series , stuff you should know , and many others, "he said. "The formation of the music is also very good. You clean it more difficult and you can as an exercise to count fully (or at least I think so!)."
