    Conventional glass cleaners often contain Volatile Organic Compounds that can pose serious health threats, such as respiratory problems, infections, skin allergies, and even chronic diseases like lung cancer.

    Include methylated spirits in your cleaning caddy to clean your window glasses, mirrors, and table tops. All you need to do:

    • Take 1/3 of a methylated spirits solution, a teaspoon of dishwashing liquid, and warm water and pour it into a spray bottle.
    • Spray on your windows, mirrors, countertops, and tabletops, and gently clean them with a sponge or a microfiber cloth.
    • Run a squeegee to remove excess solution and achieve streak-free results.
  3. Kill Mould and Mildew

    Mould or mildew is a common household fungus that loves to grow in moist and dark areas, such as bathroom walls, shower curtains, under the kitchen sink, carpets and basements.

    It is important to identify the source and kill mould using safe and sound products to attain a healthy and hygienic living environment.

    In a spray bottle, add 4 parts methylated spirits to 1 part warm water and apply it to the affected area. Leave it for a few minutes and wipe off with a clean cloth.

    Tip: Dry the surface and ensure proper ventilation to prevent mould re-infestation.

  4. Say Goodbye to Sticky Messes & Ink Stains

    Removing ink stains from carpets and other surfaces is laborious. Abrasive scrubbing or harsh products may damage the surface. To tackle these messes naturally, spray denatured alcohol and water on the affected area and leave it for a few minutes.

    Blot the surface with a paper towel and rinse it with plain water. This way, you can achieve sparkling walls, upholstery and carpets. Many professional bond cleaners in Sunshine Coast also recommend using magic erasers to remove naturally scuff marks from walls. Wet it and gently scrub the walls to achieve desired results.

    Tip: You can use other natural cleaning products, such as vinegar, baking soda, lemon to create a kid-friendly and clean home.
