Kitchen victory 101!



Kitchens are known to be the dirtiest ever in loadsa houses. Here are a few snippets on how to conquer your kitchen and make it as spick and span as you soo desire. Happy reading!


Let's start with the floor:
Sometimes spills happens. It's true. However, it doesn't have to be the end of the world. Here are some tricks and tools that can help keep your floor beautiful. On the wish list is a Floor Steamer. The kind that you can swipe up left-over spills (that have dried up due to being forgotten) without any fuss. I hear that it cleans and sanitizes faster and more efficiently than a regular mop. Another perk is that you only use water. There is no need for pricey cleaners. Obviously, if you have spills it will be best to clean them up IMMEDIATELY!



Counters:
If you keep jars of flour, spices, etc. on your counter, its best for you to do a major movement of all counter top items at least once a week. This is a good time to get things put away that DO NOT BELONG OUT or not in the kitchen at all. This is a good time to wash down all of the containers and jars so everything looks fresh and soo clean.



Refrigerator/Freezer:
One should clean out our refrigerator about every week. A good day to do it is the day before to buying more produce. Keeping the crispers clean will ultimately keep your produce and fresh food FRESHER for LONGER! This is a win-win for! Something that I have  heard that works well, is keeping small crates or containers in the fridge or freezer. You can organize all "sandwich items", all "salad Items" together, all "taco night" items together. I would also like to suggest that using containers for controlling space in your freezer would be helpful as well. For example: Baking chips, nuts, coconut; breads, rolls, etc.; spices, ginger; frozen veggies and cut vegetable (for soups); these all can be kept together and you will always be able to tell what you have and what you need.



Sink:
I like the idea of having a BRIGHT, SHINY, CLEAN sink before going to bed. When I wake up to a clean kitchen I feel just RIGHT. This is something that I'd like my children to imbibe(how about you?)


Happyyy cleaning! Keep smiling!

Bebugs...(Yikes!)

Are you aware that bed bugs (climex lectularis) and the 'tropical bed bugs' (climex hemipterus) can infest any type of human living quarters and may not only be found in housing and short duration accomodation such as hostels and hotels, but also in cinemas, buses/trucks, police cells and holding areas. These organisms are attracted by exhaled carbondioxide (CO2) and body heat and not just by dirt. They feed on blood, not waste, so in short the cleanliness of their environment has an effect on the control of bedbugsz but does not eradicate them... Be informed!

Cleaning It All...

When you are standing in a room and wondering where to begin . . . start from the top. Sounds basic, but it is a fool proof trick to cleaning well. When we are cleaning/dusting/scrubbing/etc we should always start with the top. Dust the tops of your window sills first then do the windows and finish up with the bottom or window ledge. Why? you may ask. As you clean, the dirt and dust particles are floating around and tend to float downward. So if we start from the top you will have to opportunity to 'grab' them all and get rid of them. Things to remember about Top Down Cleaning: 1) When cleaning a large space do all of the dusting first: A) Ceiling Fans and corner cob webs B) Tops of window blinds, blinds and window sills C) Tops of all other flat surfaces in room. 2) After vacuuming/cleaning furniture THEN vacuum/mop the floor 3) As you finish cleaning, put away the products you use. By the time you are finished the entire room will be done and you won...

Sweep. Dust. Mop [S. D. M]

In cleaning there are many fundamentals that form our operations and enable efficiencies across board and effective productivity.Even in this Artificial intelligence era, those fundamentals can't be disregarded. Looking closely at fundamentals, we find that there are some generic and some tweaked to fit the innovativeness of the cleaning operator concerned. As a company, we have embraced the fundamentals of sweep, dust and mop as one of those that we use daily. Ofcourse we know that it may not be the case 0.09% of times within our operations yet it is more the case than not... Especially as we operate predominantly, for now, within the Tropics, when we get to a cleaning site, our cleaning operatives are encouraged to engage-always bearing in mind one of our essential fundamentals to sweep then dust then mop [99.99% of the times]. Ofcourse, we keep seeking ways to grow and improve upon our operations and so are to tweak fundamentals... As our Chief P. says, "where we are isn...
