I’m a cleaning pro and people always comment on how amazing my house smells – it’s all thanks to an old cloth
A CLEANING pro has revealed how she keeps her home smelling fresh for weeks at a time – and you’ve probably already got everything you need in your kitchen.
Donna shared that every few weeks she wipes down her walls and ceilings with a combination of washing-up liquid and multi-surface disinfectant on an old microfibre cloth.
Not only does this help rid these areas of dust, dirt and grime but also leaves her entire home smelling fresh.
Known online as The Cleaning Lady (@donnamendoza35), she regularly shares cleaning tips and home hacks with her 390,400 followers.
In a new TikTok reel, she said: “Everyone always says my house smells amazing.
“I try to do this once a month to get rid of dust and food smells.
“Smells awesome.”
During the 15-second clip, Donna is seen filling a bowl with hot water, washing up liquid and multi-surface cleaner, before soaking a microfibre cloth in it.
She then places it over a mop, before using it to scrub her walls and ceilings, removing any dust, dirt and grease.
The cleaning enthusiast then takes the same cloth and runs it over her door frames and light switches.
She claims this helps banish dust and leaves her home smelling fresh for weeks at a time.
Fans loved her easy hack, with the video gaining more than 49,400 likes and 1.1 million views.
Donna used the Dawn Ultra EZ-Squeeze Dishwashing Soap, available to buy online from various retailers, including eBay, with prices starting at £10.
She also added the Pine Sol Multi Purpose Cleaner And Stain Remover Disinfectant to her mix, also available to buy on eBay for £8.99.
In the comments, TikTokkers shared their reactions, with one writing: “Appreciate the broom method.”
“Yessssss! I do this at home and used to do it when I worked at the daycare and we had the best-smelling room!!! We always got compliments,” commented another.
A third added: “If only I had the time and energy.”
