Hey Readers!

I recently came across a cool Home Improvement Blog that I thought you might want to check out. It’s located here. It offers a ton of cool tips on Home Improvement and also talks about how to clean certain floors, and offers tips on how to save money with certain appliances.

One post I really liked was about cleaning Terrazo floors.  You really have to take care of these floors, but they are so beautiful!

Anyways, check it out and let me know what you think. Does anyone have Terrazo floors? We have a ton of products like brooms & mops that will help you keep it clean.

A recent spring cleaning survey by The Soap and Detergent Association, named the top reasons for the ritual seasonal cleaning as

1. Removing clutter.
2. Thoroughly cleaning the house.
3. Getting rid of allergens.

60% of the 1,008 Americans surveyed said that they perform spring cleaning regularly. Out of those who do, 65% will take a week to clean.

For all those spring cleaners out there or for those new to spring cleaning, here are some spring cleaning tips to help you reach your house cleaning goals.

Make a Spring Cleaning Checklist

For some, spring cleaning can be a daunting task. Start by creating a list of the rooms that need cleaning and write down what tasks need to be done in each room.

Get the Cleaning Products you Need

List the type of cleaning products that you will need for each task, and if you will need to buy those cleaning supplies, or if you already have them. You can save money and buy in bulk online. Trash bags, Windex, and Paper Towels can all be found at discount prices at CleaningProductsWorld.com.

Prioritize your Cleaning

Clean a room from the top down. Start with curtains and windows. That way, you will only have to clean the dust and dirt that may get stirred up onto the floors and carpets once.

Get Rid of Clutter

When you declutter your home, you will notice that you will have more space and save time trying to find things! Some find it helpful to set a reward for completing this task. Sort through items, designating piles to throw away, donate to charity, or keep.

Once you have completed your spring cleaning, celebrate your clean home!

In honor of National Spring Cleaning Week, I wanted to highlight a cleaning product that I could not live without. Many people, like me, suffer from severe dust and mold allergies, with symptoms like sneezing and watery eyes. Whether it is pet dander or dust mites lurking in your carpet, there are vacuum cleaners specifically designed to help eliminate allergens from your home or office. Using HEPA filter products can help prevent and reduce allergy symptoms, so you can breathe again.

Get rid of dust mites and mold spores with a HEPA filter vacuum cleaner. You should clean your carpets with a HEPA vacuum at least once a week to filter out mold particles and other allergens. Other vacuum cleaners may only stir up mold and dust mites into the air, only prolonging your allergy agony!

Hello Cleaning Products Blog Readers!

My name is Molly and I will be your new CleaningProductsWorld blogger. I am excited to share stories about my favorite cleaning products with you!

Here’s a funny cleaning story about my favorite drain cleaner, Liquid-Plumr®. Last night, I came home from work and found my bathtub filled with an inch of dirty standing water. The drain cover was lying on the floor with a screwdriver next to it. It seemed as though my Mr. Fix-it boyfriend had tried to unclog the blocked drain, but failed to solve the problem before he left for work. We both have a lot of hair, so it was only a matter of time before our drain was clogged!

I turned to drain cleaner, Liquid-Plumr® to get my shower working again. I poured it in, and waited to see the results. After waiting all evening, the standing water still had never drained. What was the problem?

After agonizing over how I was ever going to shower again, I found the simplest solution. I flipped the open/close lever to the bathtub drain, and the water went rushing down. I’m not sure how it happened, or if the drain was ever clogged, but I was just relieved that I could finally take a shower without standing in dirty water.

Check out the Liquid-Plumr® website for The Clog Buster Tool to troubleshoot your drain problems!
