Spring is the perfect time to refresh your space and hit reset, but that doesn’t mean you need to bring in harsh chemicals to get the job done. At Zita Cleaning Services, we believe in cleaning with care for your home, your family, and the planet.
This year, make your spring cleaning eco-friendly and effective with these top clutter-clearing strategies and green cleaning tips that will leave your space sparkling (and toxin-free)!
โ
1. Start with a Declutter
Before you grab the mop or vacuum, give your space a clean slate. Use the Four-Box Method:
Work room by room to avoid being overwhelmed. Start with closets or the kitchen and move toward more lived-in areas.
Pro Tip: If you haven’t used it in the past year, it’s time to let it go!
๐งน 2. Target Dust Zones You’re Probably Missing
Dust isn’t just an eyesore—it can trigger allergies and reduce air quality. Be sure to hit:
Ceiling fan blades
- Behind and under furniture
- Air vents and return covers
- Light fixtures and lampshades
Use a microfiber cloth or a vacuum with a HEPA filter for best results.
๐งผ 3. Make Your Own Natural All-Purpose Cleaner
Skip store-bought sprays with mystery ingredients and make your own! Here's a go-to DIY recipe:
Ingredients:
- 1 cup distilled white vinegar
- 1 cup water
- Juice of 1 lemon (or 10 drops of lemon essential oil)
- Optional: 5 drops tea tree oil for antibacterial benefits
Mix in a spray bottle and use on countertops, sinks, tiles, and more!
๐งบ 4. Don’t Forget Fabrics and Upholstery
Soft surfaces trap dust, pet dander, and odors. Refresh them naturally:
- Wash throw blankets, curtains, and pillow covers
- Sprinkle baking soda on carpets, wait 10 minutes, then vacuum
- Steam clean sofas or mattresses if possible
Eco Tip: Choose plant-based laundry detergents and wash in cold water to save energy.
๐ 5. Minimize & Organize With Sustainability in Mind
As you declutter, avoid buying more plastic bins. Instead:
- Use glass jars for organizing small items
- Label storage clearly so you can find items easily next season
๐พ 6. Pet-Friendly, People-Safe Cleaning
Pets and kids are more sensitive to chemicals. Look for products that are:
- Fragrance-free (or use natural essential oils)
At Zita Cleaning Services, we use safe, green products you can feel good about.
๐งฏ 7. Refresh with Purpose
Spring cleaning isn’t just about scrubbing—it’s about resetting your environment:
- Open the windows and air out the house
- Test smoke and carbon monoxide detectors
- Safely dispose of old cleaning products, batteries, and expired pantry goods
