Tips for Maintaining a Tidy House

Keep it Clean

One of the things you can do in order to make moving house as pain-free as possible is to maintain your house or premises with a thorough, regular cleaning routine. This way, when it’s time to bond clean, you don’t have too much on your hands and you can focus on packing and relocating – and best of all, you’ll get your entire bond back! Besides that, a clean house is more aesthetically pleasing.
Also, if you have a clean house, it is a safer and healthier environment.
Clean up spills immediately to avoid stains setting in. A tidy house without clutter will be easier to move around in.
A clean kitchen will create less risk of food poisoning.

Clean Floors

If you keep the floor clean, you will minimise tripping and slipping injuries, and you’ll increase the life of your carpets by removing grit and sand. On wooden floors, using a protective floor wax or sealant will prevent wear. If you spill something wet on the floor, one of the options is to soak it up with sawdust, diatomaceous earth, or cat litter. There are a wide variety of tools available to clean your floor: buffers, automatic floor scrubbers and sweepers, and carpet extractors. These can deep clean most types of hard floor or carpeted floors, taking significantly less time than doing it manually.

Wooden Floors

Varying wooden floors require different types of care. This depends on whether they are waxed, oiled, or have a polyurethane coating. You must determine the type to treat it properly – for example it is hard to clear wood floor wax from a polyurethane coated surface. Follow these simple instructions when cleaning your wooden floor.

  • Clear off any furniture or items that are easy to move
  • Sweep or vacuum loose debris and dirt
  • Mop the floor along the grain. For a polyurethane coated floor, use a damp mop with a few drops of dishwashing liquid. Wring out the mop thoroughly before you start. Run the mop back and forth, being sure to go with the grain in smooth strokes. Do not use water for lacquered or shellacked floors as it can stain and cause buckling.
  • Buff with a soft cloth to remove soapy residue. Cloth nappies are very effective for this because of their softness and absorbency.

We hope these tips help you along with keeping your house clean and tidy, and remember, contact us if you need some professional cleaning services.

How Do I Know if I Need Pest Control?

Signs You Need Pest Control

When was the last time you used pest control? It might have been years, or if you’re renting, you might have no idea. Here are some signs it might be time to call the exterminators.

If you happen to see wasps, possums, rodents, termites, spiders, mosquitoes, mice, cockroaches, flies, fleas, borers, or ants in your home it’s a sign that the invasion might have begun. The ones you see represent a hidden population and an unprotected home. Seeing them outside your house might be normal, but if you see them inside, it could be time.

One cockroach usually means you’ve got a plague hidden somewhere. If you see more, you know they’ve definitely taken hold. Placing a few baits around will help you to gauge the level of infestation.

If you find damaged wood and/or mud tubes in your house, that’s a sign of termites. You should immediately find out more about their level of penetration and find out what kind of termite you’re dealing with.

Wasp nests or termite mounds may appear 50 to 200 metres away from your house and still pose a threat. Please note, one shouldn’t disturb termites or wasps on their own.

Droppings can be another tell-tale sign. You can tell from the type of dropping which kind of pest you’re dealing with. Really Cheap Bond Cleaning can help you to identify the problem.

Signs of gnawing or chewing can be an indication of rats and mice. They tend to gnaw at anything from wood to plastic. You can also spot their footprints and tail marks if you look closely.

Pests are attracted to rubbish, food, and water. Periodically check your kitchen and near your bins for signs.

During the wet season, check any possible stagnant water around the house in case of mosquito larvae.

If the weather is warm and wet, this is an opportune time for a range of pests. It is the favoured condition for termites. Check your windowsills for termite wings. This might be a sign that there’s a nest in the vicinity.

If you’re about to move into a new house, that’s a good time to get pest control – before the house is furnished and occupied. If you’ve lived somewhere for a year, it’s also a good time to call the exterminator – prevention is always better than cure. You needn’t see any signs of pests at these times.
