Practical And Easy Tips On Kitchen Sink Cleaning

A clean and shiny kitchen sink is a pleasant sight and it’s not that difficult to accomplish.

Kitchen sinks are one of those areas that are constantly in use. Even if you’re a lucky owner of a dishwasher and don’t have to go through the hassle of a daily dishwashing routine, you probably still wash fruits in your sink, scrub vegetables, and drain pasta. Deep and thorough kitchen sink cleaning is a prerequisite to a squeaky-clean kitchen.

Check out the following guide by SPIC AND SPAN. Home & Office Cleaning experts and keep your sink spotless.

Maintain a regular cleaning routine

When you neglect your kitchen sink for days or weeks, the stains and limescale deposits will only become more difficult to remove. Of course it takes a bit of time and attention to wipe down your sink daily, but the effort will pay off in the long run.

Avoid harsh chemicals

You can find a wide range of kitchen cleaning supplies available at the stores, but some of them contain aggressive chemicals. Kitchen is one of the areas where it’s wise to avoid them since they might come in a direct contact with your food. A belief that only harsh chemicals have proper cleaning properties is a common misconception. You can find a thorough guide to natural kitchen cleaning here.

Unclog the drain using natural methods

As you already know, not all store-bought cleaning solvents are the best options available, but you still want to opt for effective solutions. However, natural cleaning methods can be just as effective as those loaded with chemicals. This drain unclogging trick is a perfect example – you only need baking soda, white vinegar, and boiling water. Sprinkle some baking soda inside the drain and then pour some vinegar. A chemical reaction will follow and everything will bubble up and dissolve the debris inside the drain. Afterwards you just need to rinse it all with boiling water!

Kitchen sink cleaning entails sanitizing it

It might sound more dramatic than it really is, but your sink requires regular sanitizing. Luckily, you don’t need any special products for it – white vinegar will do the job and remove limescale deposits at the same time. Just be sure to leave it on the surface for a couple of minutes so that it really has time to work.

Conclusion

A clean home makes your life easier and more pleasant. Always try to use natural methods first, particularly for kitchen sink cleaning. They are environmentally friendly and do not cause allergies like some of the regular detergents and cleaning solvents.
