AirBnB Cleaning Hacks: Quick Solutions for Common AirBnB Messes

1. Coffee or wine stains: Blot the stain with a cloth to absorb excess liquid. Mix a solution of water and mild dish soap, then gently dab the stain. Rinse with cold water and dab dry.

2. Crumbs on furniture: For a quick clean, use a lint roller to remove crumbs and debris from upholstery and cushions.

3. Dusty lampshades: Use a lint roller or microfiber cloth to gently remove dust from lampshades. A soft brush also works well for fabric lampshades.

4. Grease stains in the kitchen: Sprinkle baking soda on the area and leave on for a few minutes. Wipe off the baking soda and grease with a damp cloth.

5. Toothpaste spillage in the bathroom: Wipe up spilled toothpaste with a damp cloth. If residue remains, use a mixture of baking soda and water to scrub gently.

6. Pet hair on furniture: Wrap tape or masking tape around your hand (sticky side out) and gently pat furniture to pick up pet hair.

7. Soap scum in the shower: Mix equal parts vinegar and water in a spray bottle. Spray the solution onto the soap scum, let it sit for a few minutes, then scrub and rinse.

8. Marker or pen marks: Rubbing alcohol on a cotton ball or cloth can effectively remove marker or pen marks from surfaces.

9. Dusty blinds: Use tongs and microfiber cloths to quickly clean both sides of your blinds at once.

10. Dirty microwave: Fill a microwave-safe bowl with water and a slice of lemon. Microwave on high for a few minutes, then wipe off the dirt.

11. Odour disposal: Run ice cubes and citrus peel through the disposal to freshen it up and remove odours.

12. Shoe prints on floors: A pencil eraser can work wonders for shoe scuff marks on hardwood or tiled floors.

13. Dirty oven: Make a paste of baking soda and water, apply to oven surfaces and leave overnight. Wipe off the paste and dirt the next day.

14. Dusty baseboards: Use a dryer sheet to quickly wipe down baseboards. The anti-static properties will repel dust. 15. Air freshener: Place a bowl of vinegar in a room to absorb odours, or simmer a pot of water with citrus peel for a natural scent.

With these cleaning hacks at your fingertips, you’ll be well-equipped to deal with common messes and keep your AirBnB property in tip-top shape. By addressing these issues in a timely manner, you’ll maintain a clean and welcoming environment that will make a positive impression on your guests.
