The Best House Cleaning Products For Chippewa Falls Homes

Cleaning your house provides wonderful satisfaction.

But it's frustrating if you work to clean the house and it just doesn't come out quite the way you'd like.

It could be that your cleaning products are up to the job.

It's great that we have all kinds of cleaning products on the store shelves these days. But it can be difficult to know which ones are the best for your house. And living in Chippewa Falls provides a few unique challenges when it comes to cleaning.

Here are some of our favorite cleaning products for the challenges we face right here in the Chippewa Valley.

Pumice Stones

Chippewa Falls and the surrounding areas in Wisconsin are known for hard water. Even if you have a treatment system the water will still bring at least some scale and iron build up to your home. Your sinks, showers, tubs and toilets will all see it.

It's critical that you keep up with it or you'll always struggle to keep it looking clean.

Pumice stones will be your best friend. They're only meant to be used on porcelain. So make sure your toilets and tubs are okay for that. Sometimes you can use them in ovens.

You wet the stones down and then start scraping away. They will do great on hard water stains and build up. They also help to remove stuck on grease and food in ovens.

Magic Erasers

Magic eraser sponges are great for stained surfaces. The big thing to be wary of is that these sponges are sand paper. They're really fine sand paper meant to just scrape off the outer layer of the surface and hopefully revealing the cleaner looking layer just below.

It can work on walls. It can work in tubs. It just depends on the surface and how durable it is for a little sand paper work.

The Pink Stuff

The Pink Stuff has come on the scene strong recently. And for good reason.

You can use it on all kinds of surfaces. You can use it in the kitchen for really stuck on stains and grime. You can do the same in bathrooms. It's showing to be really great at removing hard water stains in toilets, tubs and sinks.

A really great way to use The Pink Stuff is in the bathroom on the fixtures. This is a terrible place for build up especially where there is hard water such as in Chippewa Falls. Get the stuff in there good and then start scrubbing it way.

Your shower head. Your tub spigot. The sink faucet. Get all those little areas where the water pools and the scale builds up all nasty and gross.

Strong, Dual-Purpose Vacuums

Say goodbye to your broom.

Okay, maybe don't say goodbye. But you can use it less than maybe you have in the past.

There are great dual-purpose vacuums out there today. Both for heavy duty cleaning and for regular household cleaning too.

What we mean by dual-purpose is that you can go from hard surface flooring to carpet or rug surface with just the flip of a button.

You want the spinner to spin when you're on carpet. You don't want it to spin when you're on hard surfaces. You want to avoid the scratching.

There are also attachments for getting the hard-to-reach places like under cabinets and furniture and also on the baseboards.

A vacuum is your best friend for getting all of the dirt off your floors.

High Dusters

We don't recommend getting on a ladder too often. It's obviously safe most of the time, but it only takes once to get yourself into big trouble.

But there are a fair number of high up places in homes in the Chippewa Falls area. Ceiling fans are very common. Lots of people have high shelving for showing off their items. We might have artwork and photo frames hanging.

Get yourself a high duster. Either an adjustable pole or just a regular broom handle. Then get a duster handle you can screw on the end. Get one that is adjustable if possible with a microfiber attachment that you can wash.

Get those high up and difficult to reach places regularly.

Non-Scratch Pads

Non scratch pads are great for the kitchen and bathroom. You can combine this with your regular surface cleaner. You can also combine it with The Pink Stuff.

These pads are great for doing just enough friction without ruining your surfaces. That's what so many of us are afraid of with our homes. We want to tow the line of being strong enough to actually do some cleaning while still avoiding doing harm.

They come in a few varieties. Try one or two out for yourself. Try them first on a surface that you're not too worried about. See how it works and then go to town on the rest of those difficult areas.

Final Thoughts

Chippewa Falls is a great place to live. It's not too challenging to keep your home clean, but there are a few unique aspects that can make it a little tricky.
