Discover homemade cleaning tricks that have gone viral because of their effectiveness. Quick and easy solutions to keep your home spotless without effort. Every day, on social networks like TikTok, cleaning tricks are emerging that are revolutionizing homes. Simple, effective and, above all, easy to apply, these home tips bring traditional techniques back into the spotlight, adapted to modern times and designed to save time and effort.
One of the profiles that has attracted the most attention is that of María Fernández (@marianordichouse), a content creator specialising in order and home, who has managed to make some of her best cleaning secrets go viral. Among her suggestions, one traditional trick stands out for making cloths and dishcloths as good as new: just boil them in a pot of water with two tablespoons of bicarbonate of soda and one of soap. After fifteen minutes of cooking, the fibers regain their freshness, eliminating dirt, bacteria and bad odors.
Another of her most applauded solutions is for the mop, an item that, although essential, is often forgotten to be cleaned thoroughly. Fernández recommends immersing it in very hot water with a dishwasher tablet and a generous splash of cleaning vinegar. This easy-to-prepare mixture disinfects and neutralises odours naturally.
If the problem is with the bathroom or kitchen tiles, the expert suggests a foolproof homemade mixture: three parts water to one part ammonia. Spraying this solution on the tiles, leaving it to work for a few minutes and then cleaning with a cloth will restore their original shine with almost no effort.
For those who love cooking, Fernández also offers a quick trick for taking care of the cutting board, a utensil that easily accumulates stains and bacteria. Rubbing it with coarse salt and lemon not only disinfects, but also eliminates any lingering odors. A few drops of oil at the end help to keep the material moisturized and in perfect condition.
These small gestures are a reminder that keeping your home clean and tidy does not require large investments or sophisticated products. Sometimes it is enough to rescue the old remedies and adapt them with ingenuity to the pace of modern life.
