22 Cleaning tips and tricks that Mr. Clean himself would approve of if he could.

Oven Door Magic
A foggy oven door can be a nuisance, making it difficult to observe your food as it cooks. In place of wiping the door with a soft cloth or squeegee, which may not fully clean it, this cleaning hack involves the use of a stiff brush and window cleaner. This method effectively removes soap scum and steam marks, leaving your oven door clear and ready for action.
Stovetop Burner Resurgence
Stovetop burners often bear the brunt of food spills and grime after each meal. Instead of resorting to vigorous scrubbing, which may not yield the desired results, try this simple cleaning hack. Create a mixture of baking soda and dish soap to form a thick paste. Apply this paste evenly to the burners, allowing it to work on the dirt. After a short wait, you can easily wipe away the grime with a soft, damp cloth. Your stovetop will regain its shine without requiring strenuous effort.

Bye-Bye Greasy Stains
Steam and oil splatters can leave your kitchen surfaces greasy and give the impression that they’re nearly impossible to clean. Don’t lose hope; a bottle of mineral oil and a paper towel can come to your rescue. Add a few drops of mineral oil to a paper towel or cloth and use it to wipe down the greasy surfaces and objects. The mineral oil will break down the grease, making it much easier to clean. Once you’ve finished rubbing the mineral oil, use the paper towel to wipe down the surfaces again, leaving them clean and grease-free.

Microwave Makeover with Lemon Juice
Microwaves often bear the brunt of splattered food, leaving stubborn stains and lingering odors. To tackle this issue without resorting to harsh chemicals, use a microwave-safe bowl filled with water and lemon juice. Microwave the solution until it boils and releases steam, which will help to loosen grime and stains. Then, gently wipe away the stains, leaving your microwave fresh and clean.

Bathtub Deep Clean
A deep clean of your bathtub is a vital weekly task to ensure it remains free from bacteria and dust. To achieve this, fill your bathtub with hot water and add a generous scoop of oxygen bleach. Allow this mixture to sit in the tub overnight and then drain it the next morning. Finally, spray the tub to remove any remaining residues. You’ll be left with a sparkling and sanitized bathtub, ready for relaxation.

Stress-Free Air Conditioner Vent Cleaning
Air conditioner vents are notorious dust collectors, often accumulating grime in hard-to-reach places. To address this issue without professional assistance, create a cleaning tool by soaking a towel in your preferred cleaning solution and wringing out the excess liquid. Then, secure the damp towel around a stick, such as a knife, using rubber bands. Glide this makeshift cleaning tool through the vents to capture and remove dust effectively.
