EVERYONE knows how frustrating it can be when there are places in the home that you want to clean but you can’t quite get to them.
Now, a cleaning expert has revealed a genius and cheap hack which will totally transform your cleaning routine and make stubborn areas reachable once and for all.
Aesthetically In Home, a cleaning and home TikTok account which has 13,200 followers and counting, shared a video of how using two unlikely household items together will do just the trick.
It shows how a toothpick can be wrapped tightly in a sheet of kitchen roll and then used to clean underneath surfaces, such as in the gap between a cooking hob and a kitchen counter.
They explain: “Toothpick and kitchen roll are the best combination for hard to clean areas.”
The clip, which has been liked over 8000 times, then demonstrates how the tip of the toothpick will pick up previously untouchable dirt that will rub off onto the kitchen roll.

One wrote underneath the post: “Ahh thanks for this trick.” While a second added: “Omg thank you!”
Others said they were a fan of the hack, and that they also use different household objects to achieve the same effect.
One social media user said: “I use expired credit cards.” Another suggested: “Butter knife and tea towel.”
Meanwhile, several other followers of the helpful account shared the tips and tricks they’ve picked up over the years.
Countless said they used a toothbrush to clean in between gaps that ordinary cleaning equipment won’t reach.
