Some Tips On How To Clean The Kitchen

By Jason Myers

It is calculated that about 10 million cases a year are reported in the UK for food poisoning. Around 8 of 10 cases are bacteria and virus related brought about by pets, people, raw foods, and water. It should be observed that small]that minimal exposures to these bacteria and virus' can be managed by our body's immune system. It's only when there is a great volume of bacteria and viruses that they become harmful. This is all the result from improper food handling, storage, cleaning or lack of, and poor hygienic upkeep in such a vital area as the kitchen.

Gathering and having]Putting all tools and cleaning items ready is our initial step when cleaning the kitchen. Having our supplies already prepared in a carry-all bin will ease our job and spare us the time from searching the house to locate these stuffs. The goal is to get in and out while achieving a good clean up in the process.

To increase productivity and fastness, devise a cleaning strategy. Choose which locations you will start from and try not to backtrack or have to clean anything twice. I focus around the kitchen counter clockwise, cleaning everything wholly before proceeding to the next area.

When it comes to counter-tops, there are various items available to you to use. The problem is, not all counter-tops can employ the same cleaning agents, and some may get dented because of improper cleaning item or procedure. It's recommended to initially verify with manufacturer recommendations on the appropriate products you can use. In general a multi purpose cleaner will do just as good a job as a specialty cleaner and it's one I often use myself.

The sink will often times require at least two different cleaning products: a multi purpose cleaner for wiping down faucets, and water release handles and a powdered cleaner for scrubbing down the sink. Always start at the rim of the sink, then proceed to the faucets, and then down into the actual sink itself.

The last place when cleaning the kitchen, if working from top to bottom will be the kitchen's floor. Before mopping your floor it recommended to perform a thorough sweep of the area to discard excess debris that might be dangling around. After sweeping, for a thorough clean of your flooring it's good to give it a good scrub down with a mop or sponge mop. - 29956
