Is your cat losing hair on the tail or other parts of the body? Did it become frustrating to find pet hair all over the sofa? The solution to this is simple: wear a damp washing glove on your hand and wherever you find hair, run your hand over it.
This way, the hair will be attached to the glove rather than your furniture. This is a great tip since other solutions for pet hair removal can cost you a lot of money depending on their quality.

Cleaning wine stains from carpets can become a dilemma sometimes. But not anymore, use salt to clean wine spills or strains by pouring it over the dirty spot. Then, salt crystals will take care of the rest and absorb the wine.
Make sure to give it time to dry (leave it overnight if you can), and then wash it using cold water (you can even add a detergent or baking soda) and you’ll be impressed by the results.

If you are wondering how to remove grease from the stove (or gunk), all you need to do is to make a paste from baking soda and hydrogen peroxide. Then, use a cloth to scrub it and voila! Your stove is sparkling.
This is among the greatest DIY house cleaning products and natural ways to clean your oven, which can save you a lot of cleaning time. Remember that you need to let rest for around 15 to 30 minutes before the magic happens.
Tiles Cleaning

Another thing you don’t expect it to be among home cleaning products is your mouthwash. When the grout between the tiles start to develop gunk and dirt that is unpleasant to look at, use your Listerine or any other kind of mouthwash to clean it and it will come off.
You need to give it time to rest for 5 minutes or more before you start scrubbing; also, you may want to sacrifice a toothbrush for better results.
