For many people, cleaning house is not on the top of the favorites list. It can be frustrating buying and using several different cleaners just to get the job done. The good news is, as long as you have a bottle of liquid dish soap you no longer have to use several different cleaners to get your home sparkling clean. Dish soap is very versatile and can be used for many more chores than simply doing the dishes. Here are 3 ways to use dish soap for household cleaning.
Stain Removal
If you are like most people, one of the most frustrating things about doing laundry is trying to remove a stain from your favorite piece of clothing. Instead of using expensive stain remover, simply reach for your bottle of dish soap to remove oily stains. Gently rub a small amount of dish soap on the stain before washing.
Patio Furniture
Although dish soap may not seem like a tough enough cleaner to remove the dust, dirt and grime that builds up on patio furniture, it is actually one of the best products to use. Dish soap can be used to clean plastic, wrought iron and aluminum patio furniture. Simply add a few drops of your favorite dish soap to a bucket of hot water and use a scrub brush to remove years of built up grime. After scrubbing, rinse with a water hose and allow to dry thoroughly.
Window Blinds
Do you try to clean each slate while they are still hanging over the window? If so, an easy solution is to soak them in dish soap. Remove the blinds, fill the bathtub with hot water, add a few drops of dish soap and allow the blinds to soak for a few hours. Drain the bathtub, turn the shower on and rinse the dirt and grime away. If possible, taking the blinds outdoors to dry in the sun will allow them to dry much quicker, but if the weather isn’t permissible, lay a few towels on the floor, open the blinds and stretch them over the towels to dry.
