As far as household chores are concerned, cleaning isn't one of my favorites. However, I do it because I love a clean house. Do you see the dilemma here? Ha, ha!
So I'm always looking for ways to get the job done faster and more efficiently. And that's what the internet is for, huh? These cleaning tips will help you and me both.

I know it's a pain in the butt to scrub that toilet bowl. I wish there were a better way to get it clean. Well, apparently, denture cleaning tablets can do wonders. Try it and see for yourself.
Dab a little white toothpaste (don’t use gel toothpaste) directly on the stain and rub it in with a clean cloth. It will get the stain out just like coffee stains on your teeth.
How do you remove hair build-up from a brush? All you need to do is is soak it in warm water and shampoo for one hour. Then use a toothpick to get the hair off. Rinse, let dry, and voilà!
What happens when water boils over on your brand new glass top stove? It isn't pretty, huh? Well, Easy Off always comes to the rescue when it calls for heavy-duty cleaning jobs. Am I right?
Do you ever get scuff marks on your floors? How annoying is that? But more importantly, how do you get rid of them? You can clean off shoe scuff marks from vinyl flooring with a clean, dry tennis ball.
Did you realize that your blinds collect a ton of dust? I found that out when moving. But you can put some socks on your salad tongs and clean the blinds like this, ha, ha! Did you know that?
How do you avoid stains on your Tupperware from that leftover tomato sauce dish? Well, you can put plastic wrap over your food before putting the plastic lids. Ah, no more stained Tupperware!
Cleaning a shower for somebody like me who's only 5'3 isn't that much fun. But did you know there's a hack for that? You can use a Swiffer with a rag instead. Oh my, ha, ha!
How do you make sure that you don't just move dust around when using a broom? Adhere some tape to the broom and go to town sweeping. Afterward, just peel the tape off, and that's it.
Have you ever looked under your faucet? Well, maybe you should. Chances are, there are hard water deposits like this. But an easy way to get rid of them is by soaking the faucet with vinegar for at least 30 minutes.
Have you ever seen people using brushes attached to their drill? I have. Why do they do that? Well, when you attach these drill brushes, they literally do all the hard work for you. Aren't they worth the investment or what?
Is your car starting to smell rather funky? Don't worry about that. Keep some clementine peels in your car for a few days. They will clean the air and make the car smell good, too.
