When you’re in college that means cleaning your apartment is not the top thing on your priority list. It’s hard to find the time to work it in between your group projects, exam schedule, and social life. Months may go by until you realize you have no clean dishes left and you can barely see your bedroom floor because of the pile of clothes stacked up. Fortunately, with these low-cost hacks, you will have your apartment sparkling clean in no time.
Clean Your Microwave
College dinners typically mean microwaving food, but these warm-ups usually leave lingering odors and splattered food remains. By placing a cup of vinegar into the microwave for one minute, the steam will dissolve the old food remains and help decrease the unpleasant smells.
Clean Your Blinds
Window blinds are an inevitable place to collect dust. If you want them to shine just combine water and vinegar and wipe them down with an old sock or rag. Then dry it off with the other side, your blinds will be sparkling instantly.
Oil Your Cutting Board
Cutting boards can get scratched up and quite filthy when they are used so many times. With the help of olive oil, you can give your wood a fresh new look by pushing the oil into the wood.
