If you’ve started your new year with a house full of discarded wrapping paper and a messy, post-party kitchen, it might not feel like the ‘new leaf’ you were hoping to turn over as we welcomed in the New Year. Not to worry; if you resolved to keep your home tidier this year, help is at hand. It’s time to channel Marie Kondo and bid farewell to the things that no longer bring you joy!
Say goodbye to germs
The pandemic has been a testing experience, but it’s made us all more aware of the cleanliness of the environments we live and work in. While washing your hands is one of the most important steps you can take, it’s also smart to keep surfaces in communal areas clean. Our Household Antibacterial Cleansing Wipes 84’s provide a fast and easy way to clean hard surfaces around the home. These lemon-scented wipes have been specially formulated to help tackle harmful bacteria such as salmonella, listeria and E. coli, and kill 99.9% of bacteria.
For an all-purpose cleaner, you can’t go wrong with Zoflora Honeysuckle & Jasmine 250ml. Zoflora’s No 1 selling Concentrated Disinfectant is a firm favourite in UK households - and for good reason. Its versatile, 3-in-1 action formula kills bacteria and viruses that can cause illness and create bad odours, leaving a long-lasting, beautiful fragrance developed by perfumers. Plus, it’s vegan-friendly and cruelty-free.
Blitz the bathroom
There is nothing better for the tidy folk among us than popping a great-smelling air freshener in a newly clean bathroom. Febreze Bathroom Air Freshener Blossom & Breeze 7.5ml is one of our favourites. It’s a continuous air-freshener - with no need to plug in - and guarantees freshness for up to 45 days. As well as removing odours from the air, it also works to eliminate them from towels and bathmats.
Another top tip for a guest-ready bathroom comes in the form of fragranced bin liners (we’re all about attention to detail). Tidyz Pedal Bin Liners Fragranced 15L 40’s are great value and come in either fresh linen or lemon scents. With tie handles and a 15 litre capacity, they’re an under-the-sink staple.
Treat your senses
When everything is neat and tidy, it’s all about getting those finishing touches right. Creating a pleasant environment in each room involves all of our senses, especially smell. But some air fresheners leave an annoying wet spray across surfaces. Thankfully, Air Wick Pure Cherry Blossom Aerosol 250ml is not one of those products. Simply spray in a sweeping motion to release a fresh scent of cherry blossom that acts in seconds to neutralise odours.
Oh, and when you’ve finished cleaning, put your feet up with a cuppa. You’ve earned it!
