Simple habits. Powerful results. 100% natural.
Keeping your home clean can feel overwhelming—especially with a busy schedule. But with just a few easy habits and smart routines, your home can stay fresh, sparkling, and healthy all year long. At N & K Organic Cleaning LLC, we believe that a clean home starts with smart habits—not harsh chemicals.
Here are our Top 10 organic cleaning tips to help you keep your home in tip-top shape, every season.
1. Stick to a Weekly Routine
Designate cleaning days by area:
- Monday: Bedrooms
- Wednesday: Kitchen
- Friday: Bathrooms
This keeps things manageable and avoids the stress of doing everything at once.
2. Go Room-by-Room, Top-to-Bottom
Always start cleaning from the top of a room (shelves, ceiling fans) and work your way down (furniture, floors). This prevents re-cleaning things you’ve already wiped.
3. Use Natural Ingredients
DIY cleaners save money and protect your health. Our go-to mix:
- 1 cup vinegar
- 1 cup water
- 10 drops lemon or lavender essential oil
Perfect for counters, mirrors, glass, and even bathroom surfaces.
4. Freshen the Air the Natural Way
Avoid artificial sprays. Try:
- Essential oil diffusers
- Boiling herbs (rosemary, citrus peel, cloves)
- Houseplants like peace lily or snake plant to purify the air
5. Stay on Top of Laundry
Don’t let dirty clothes pile up. A small load every 1–2 days saves time and keeps your space smelling fresh.
Use non-toxic detergent, skip the dryer sheets, and try wool dryer balls instead.
6. Disinfect High-Touch Surfaces Daily
Wipe light switches, doorknobs, remotes, and phone screens with a cloth dampened with vinegar or hydrogen peroxide (avoid electronics).
These small areas carry the most germs but are often overlooked.
7. Declutter as You Clean
While dusting or wiping, toss or donate anything you no longer use. Less clutter = easier cleaning = less stress.
Tip: Keep a small donation basket in your closet year-round.
8. Don’t Forget the Forgotten Areas
Make a checklist for:
- Baseboards
- Ceiling fan blades
- Under furniture
- Air vents and filters
These spots collect allergens and dust over time.
9. Keep Your Cleaning Products in One Place
Create a “cleaning caddy” with all your essentials—microfiber cloths, sprays, gloves, baking soda, etc. That way, you’re always ready to go.
10. Book a Professional Deep Clean Seasonally
Even with great habits, every home needs a deep refresh. Book a professional organic cleaning
every 3–4 months to tackle:
- Deep kitchen degreasing
- Bathroom sanitizing
- Upholstery and mattress cleaning
- Dust and allergen removal
At N & K Organic Cleaning LLC, we use only non-toxic, eco-friendly products for your safety and peace of mind.
