One simple ingredient will do an amazingly good job: hydrogen peroxide. Just pour it on, and watch it start to disappear!

Cleaning Cutting Boards (Chopping; Household Tips)

Another fabulous use for vinegar? Use it to clean your wooden and plastic chopping boards! Use it plain to disinfect. For boards with deep grooves, let the cutting board sit in a small amount of plain vinegar in the sink for about 5 minutes, and then scrub and rinse with plenty of clean, fresh water. :)

Cleaning with Microfiber Cloths - Cleaning Tips (Household)

I'm a big believer in microfiber cleaning cloths. Not only are they very effective at cleaning (especially dusting - and many swear by them as the best dishcloths ever) BUT - these are a must-have if you have a family member with allergies or asthma. You don't need to use any additional cleaners - just these cloths and a bit of water and you can get practically any surface sparkling clean.

:) A great option for Happy Slob Housecleaning fans!

P.S. These are also far safer for your pets and family - no chemicals means no chance of ingesting something downright frightening!
