Safely Remove Cooking Grease

I’ve heard that a plumber’s rate triples on Holidays, and there’s no surprise that clogged pipes occur most often during this time. Fats, oils and grease seems harmless, but indeed it is not.

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

Hello all of you neatnicks. Doesn’t it sound so cliche when someone says ‘with holiday season just around the corner…’ you just know they are trying to sell you something (that’s because you usually hear it heavily cycled in advertising). But the reality is, holidays are just around the corner and from our perspective, there’s a lot to do. Houses need to be cleaned in preparation for guests and unique holiday messes and cleaning tasks arise which we don’t really think about dealing with aside from, well, holiday time.

So, instead of giving all of you holiday gifts (because logistically and cost-wise, it makes zero sense), we decided to put together 12 great videos/blog posts which offer you tips that you can pull out of your back pocket when the turkey hits the fan.

Each day, we’ll post up a new tip and you can view it as well as previous tips by clicking on the ’12 Days calendar’ or by viewing this post daily.


Happy holidays and thank you for your continued support <3

Sincerely,

Melissa & The Clean My Space Team.

  1. Hey Melissa,
    I recently started watching your videos on YouTube, and I must say I’m really impressed… I keep watching them all through out the day… Really like using your tips 🙂

    I have a question… Can you please share some cleaning and deodorising tips for baby nappy bins. Even if I empty it out every day, and use bin liners each time, the bin still smells funky and has even started making the nursery smell bad now 🙁 Every two weeks or so I actually wash the whole bin and leave it to air outside… That helps for a day but then the smells come back 🙁

    Please help!
