Several (believe me, it must be more than three in any given window rail) dead flies were there for years, buried with mud and dust. Our way is using pressure water cleaner to flush them out. It would leave your wall ands windows a mess but it is much easier to clean this mess then digging out dirt in window rails.

The Dirtiest Thing in Your Toilet
What is the dirtiest thing in your toilet? Is it the toilet bowl? How about the toilet seat? Or the flush button? None of above are dirtiest thing in your toilet. The modern flush toilet we use today had been designed to keep every thing as clean as possible. Your toilet is clean and hygiene as long as you push the flush button after use and a wipe of the flush button, the seat and a brush of the bowl. But what is left? The toilet brush and the brush holder! Only few of us are used to wash the toilet brush and the brush holder every time after brushing the toilet bowl. It is like you brush your teeth and left the toothbrush and toothbrush mug uncleaned.

You shampoo because hair collects oil. That means it can collect petroleum oil spills too. Over 300,000 pounds of hair are cut each day in the US and not to mention all the clippings from pet groomers.

Why hiring house cleaners would save you a lot of money?
Q: Why hiring house cleaners would save you a lot of money?A: Before asking this question, you have to ask yourself: How much your leisure time worth? Yes, we believe your leisure time is priceless. However you could also put it this way: You are actually “working” overtime in your house working hours. If you bill yourself for your overtime house working hour, it would be a large bill! Say, you are a accountant billing your clients $50 per hour. Two hours house cleaning by yourself per week actually cost you $400 every month. Hiring a house cleaner, you are saving hundreds every month! And we believe you would save more by hiring TIDYHOME Cleaning Service!
Home Cleaning Perth: How to Clean a Rangehood Filter?
Rangehood filter might be the most dirty part of a kitchen. We normally wipe stove top after cooking. But may not clean rangehood for very long time. By the time (too dirty you can’t bear it, end of lease etc) we were forced to clean it, oil and grease on the filter or fan is too thick and hard and you might think it is impossible to get rip of it! Is there any easy way to make your rangehood looked like new again? Here are some tips to do it:
First, you can try oven cleaners. Rangehood filters are made of layers of steel net. They are similar to structures in ovens. By using oven cleaners, most oil and grease would be removed right away. It maybe more effective if you clean your rangehood filters together with your oven. Just put your rangehood into your oven and apply oven cleaner in oven. A few minutes later, both your oven and rangehood filters are ready to clean.
Second, use rangehood filter cleaners that actually work! We use a rangehood filter cleaner by Hammersley Australia for our house cleaning business. The product deals with rangehood greases magically and itis available in Bunnings around Australia. You can visit their website here if you are from overseas but this product is not available in their online store. I guess they branded this product another name and you may ask them for further information.
Third, sink rangehood filters within very hot sudsy water with some vinegar, repeatedly brush the filter.
Pros: Very economic and non-toxic, use what you already have in your kitchen.
Cons: Time consuming and may not clean thoroughly if your rangehood filter was really greasy, obviously not suitable for hired domestic cleaners.
If you clean your rangehood filter yourself frequently, this method is ok for you.

A Tidy Office is More Productive
A Tidy Office is More Productive
By: Lesa Parham
Whether you work from home or at an office, desk tidiness, or lack thereof, can become a problem. But, as real estate agents well know, an organized desk is far more productive than a disorganized one.
Real estate agents are often juggling a number of clients at a time, all at different stages of the buying or selling process. Following up on leads can be imperative to getting more clients, and checking in on past clients is good for getting referrals and repeat customers. So losing track of contacts is not an option for the Realtors® I know. Nor should it be for you, in whatever line of work you’re in.
The first step to keeping a more organized desk area is figuring out what your greatest challenge is. I recently heard the analogy that some people are filers, and some are pilers. Fair enough, but searching through a random stack of papers is a time waster, and I know you’ve got better things to do with your time. So if your inherent tendency is towards piling, maybe it’s time to create some order in the random piles. Filing and piling aren’t really that different of an action, and by keeping labeled folders or boxes to pile things in, you may be able to make a painless transition from one to another. You know the classic trays, one marked ‘in’ and the other ‘out’. Try it, it works. ‘In’ would be where you’d put things on your ‘to do’ list, thing that needed completing that day, or week, or whatever best suites your particular job. It may work well to have this box divided in three parts, one for things to be done that day, one for things to look at before the week’s out, and another for jobs you aren’t ready to do, but need to re-visit by the months end. Near the end of each month, spend 15 minutes or so revaluating which in box category those monthly jobs need to go in.
The ‘out’ box would obviously be for completed tasks, however these days, we often email people our completed tasks, or ship them out of office. No matter. Keep an out box anyway, and stack any completed hardcopy items there, preferably with each job in their own folder. Once things are completed, remember to remove any every trace of finished jobs from your in box. Now, you may find you need an ‘ongoing’ box. This may be where you pile pieces of information you need on an ongoing basis.
But what of the things you no longer need? This category seams to make up the bulk of what I find taking up the corners of my desk: pieces of paper with notes or numbers jotted down that I will no longer need, but think I might. The solution, have a recycling box beside your desk. Toss in non-confidential things you are pretty certain you’ll never need again. If you find you end up needing them after all, add another box for ‘may-need’s. And don’t forget to have a garbage can handy, and a shredder, if the nature of your work demands one. There’s nothing worse than hoarding garbage because you’re afraid of throwing it away. That’s the one major obstacle to a tidy desk, so have every means necessary, close at hand, to dispose of what you no longer need. If water bottles are part of what’s piling up, add a recycling box for that type of thing, too. While this might seem like an awful lot of boxes, trust me, they’ll look better stacked on and around your desk than the random loose papers that might be there now.
Pick one time, one day per week to do a tidy-up of things that have gotten scattered. Ideally this would be a Friday afternoon, so that you can start fresh on Monday, but if you work from home, or have flexible or varying hours, just pick a time that makes the most sense to you. But it’s important to make it like an appointment, at the same time each week, or at least at the same stage of your work timeline. Otherwise it’s too easy to put off, until suddenly your desk is covered in piles again.
As for those contacts, get yourself a good old fashioned roll-a-dex. Instead of jotting numbers and email addresses down on loose paper, write them in there. When you get to work each day, get out any business cards you may have been given and add those names to your roll-a-dex. If you need a context so you’ll remember the name, keep tape handy and add the business card right to it. If this doesn’t work for you, get a folder full of those plastic sheets that are divided up to hold business cards. Add all new cards to that, preferably in either alphabetical order, or in order of types of clients, or both, whichever most suits your needs.
Finally, keep a notebook on your desk to jot down ideas or info about things you aren’t working on at that minute, but will be getting to within that day, or the next. At the beginning of each day, review the last couple of pages to see if anything relevant is written there. Another idea is to sign up for Google calendar, and jot down things to be remembered later in the week there. Then on that day, you’ll see the reminder. This is actually a great time saver, and works well for all your appointments, and even remembering birthdays, too.
If being messy is a hard habit for you to break, start with one step at a time. Make a commitment to getting tidier. It will take some will-power, but you can do it. Keep in mind that it will likely help you get your jobs done faster, and think about what you’d rather be doing with your time. With that as incentive, get started!

Tip 2 Save Money by using fewer Bin Liners
Tip 2 Save Money by using fewer Bin Liners
You may have some bins around your office, your house. If you clean your place once a week, you have to change a lot of bin liners every time. No matter you clean your place yourself or hire a cleaner to do it, use bin liners wisely would definitely save your money and time. Try to do a little bit calculation yourself, how much a roll of bin liners worths and how much a office bin worths? They are actually nearly the same price in Officeworks! If you change your bin liner every week or once the bin was full and threw it away, that would be the same money as you brought another office bin after a roll of bin liners was finished. You may not threw away a bin after one year usage, but you actually throw away the same value of bin liners in a year’s time if you change it frequently.
So the tip today would be how to save money by using fewer bin liners. I suggest that you could have just one bin with bin liner for chewing gum, food and drinks etc. No food and drink is allowed to put in every bin under employees’ desk. Just that tip could save your office and home a lot of money and every bin would still very clean.
Tip 1: Clean your place Frequently
It is just like doing car services, the more often you clean your house, the more tidy your house to be. If you clean your house once a day, you may just spend 5 minutes per day. That would be just half hour per week for house cleaning. What if you clean your house weekly? For most professional cleaner as TIDYHOME team members, it would be at least one hour for a one bedroom apartment.
Or you are willing to pay a cleaner to do your house cleaning? The same rule applied. Hire a cleaner weekly rather then fortnightly or Monthly. You may pay lest for fortnightly or Monthly cleaning, but weekly visit of cleaner would surely do a better job.
