2 - White Wine Vinegar

White wine vinegar is definitely an essential cleaning product for around the home. You probably won’t even believe all of the different uses it has. Descaling the kettle, cleaning and deodorising the microwave, window and glass cleaning, removing grass stains, cleaning the fridge, even removing stains from carpets…the list goes on! Most of these things need white wine vinegar to be mixed with water, however, it can be used neat in some instances, such as cleaning draining boards and taps – using a spray bottle filled with white wine vinegar and spray on to remove any limescale and hard water build up.

3 - Baking Soda

Did you know just how many things can be cleaned with baking soda? It can be effective at whitening, scrubbing and deodorising – so definitely an essential product to keep handy! Completely remove burnt-on food remains in your pots and pans by leaving a paste of baking soda and washing up liquid in your pain for a few hours, before washing away and you should have a sparkling clean pan! Your dishwasher can benefit from baking soda, simply sprinkling half a cup into the bottom of it between uses will neutralise odours – plus it will help to soften the water in your dishwasher naturally which will improve how your detergent functions – helping to clean even the dirtiest of dishes!

Other uses for baking soda include making a paste from it to clean out your refrigerator naturally – so as not to affect the quality of your food that may be caused by some other toxic cleaning sprays. Cleaning carpets and deodorising them can be done with baking soda – simply sprinkle over your carpet and leave it to sit for as long as you like, before thoroughly vacuuming it away! Baking soda can also be used to keep your toilet clean – especially when combined with white wine vinegar! Simply sprinkle some baking soda into your toilet, pour in some vinegar and scrub away the dirty toilet scum!

4 – A Steam Mop and Pro-Kleen Steam Detergent

Anyone who has been converted to a steam mop from a traditional mop will tell you how easy they are to use and how efficient at cleaning they are! Simple and quick to clean all hard flooring in the home, especially in hallways where grease, dirt and grime can build up. If you are the proud owner of a steam mop (and if you aren’t – you should be!) then finding a good detergent to go in the mop is a must. Our Pro-Kleen Steam Detergent is super concentrated and cleans, sanitises and removes 99.9% of bacteria when used with a steam mop. The solution also neutralises any lingering odours caused by pets or dirt, and leaves a fresh fragrance, available in Ocean Fresh or Citrus to make your home smell beautiful!

5 – Multi-purpose cleaner

A cleaning product that can clean a number of different surfaces is essential to make your cleaning routine quicker, as offering great results across multiple surfaces makes cleaning from room to room simple – with no need to fumble about looking for specific cleaners over and over. These cleaners typically come in a spray; however, some are available as a concentrated solution for you to dilute yourself. These cleaners are super useful for cleaning and disinfecting work surfaces, kitchen and bathroom tiles, wooden worktops and sideboards and any other hard surfaces you may have.

Our Pro-Kleen Disinfectant, Sanitiser and Surface cleaner is ideal for use on wood, plastic, glass, stainless steel, PVC and more, breaking down dirt and killing bacteria and any viruses that may be covering a surface, breaking down odours and leaving your surfaces clean and safe.
