5 Things You're Probably Forgetting to Clean

Five Things You Might Be Forgetting to Clean

It can be so easy to over look cleaning various items in our home, whether that is appliances or maybe areas that are out of sight. Here are five things you should be cleaning on a regular basis in your home.

Jetted Tub Jets

I know not everyone has these, but if you do have them you should definitely use a cleaning solution of some sort to regularly clean them out. I absolutely hate jetted tubs. When we first moved into this house I’m not sure the jets had ever been cleaned. So much black gunk came out of them when we first cleaned them.

Our jetted tub is now in the regular cleaning rotation. Using a cleaning solution like this ACTIVE Jetted Tub cleaner makes the job super easy. This bottle has measurements on the side so all I have to do is pour the solution in the tub and let the jets do their work!

The tub gets so bubbly, but the jets come out nice and clean afterwards. I still have to scrub the outside of the jets if there’s been any mold accumulation, but I can tell that the inside of the jets are nice and clean. You can watch my full review of the jetted tub cleaner here.

Washing Machine

An appliance that sure gets a workout in anyone’s home is the washing machine, and it requires regular cleaning for sure. I regularly clean my washing machine because we use it at least twice a day if not more. It doesn’t take much for it to get musty smelling. I wrote a really popular post on how to clean your top loader with natural methods, but sometimes it’s easier to have a cleaning item on hand.

I was super excited to try out the ACTIVE washing machine cleaner. It’s honestly so easy to use. This particular tablet is supposed to be used twice per month, but all you have to do is drop the tablet in the washer. If you have a “clean washer” setting just use that, if not there are instructions on what settings to use for your washer.

My washing machine came out smelling fresh and looking clean! Don’t forget to also wipe down the outside parts of your machine! You can watch my video review of the ACTIVE washing machine cleaner here.

Coffee Machine

I think descaling my coffee machine is the most annoying chore. If you have something like a Keurig, you should descale your machine on a regular basis. My machine tells me when I need to descale it, so I just go by that.

ACTIVE Coffee Machine Descaler

If you’re looking for an economical way to descale your coffee machine, try the ACTIVE Coffee Machine Descaling Solution. Like the Jetted Tub cleaner mentioned above, there are measurements on the side of the bottle, so it’s pretty easy to use.

Pouring the Descaling solution

I follow the descaling settings on my machine, but if you don’t have those on yours you can follow the instructions that come with the bottle. It works like a charm! Check out my video review of the ACTIVE Coffee Machine Descaling Solution here.

    Seals and Grout

    So, there are certain areas in our home that just get moldy. I’ve particularly had trouble with certain seals, like the seal around my bathtub and the seal around my sink. This product, ACTIVE Seal and Grout Mold Stain Remover, is specifically formulated to tackle those mold stains. It’s especially helpful if you have a front loading washing machine that is collecting mold on the seal.

    ACTIVE mold and stain remover

    I tried this out on my bathtub since I don’t have a front loading washing machine. You have to be really careful with this product and use gloves. It was really easy to use and it did get some of the mold stains off. There were some left, but I think they were actually under the seal.

    Dishwasher

    Another appliance that gets a daily workout in our house is the dishwasher. It gets so gross, so it needs to be cleaned regularly, too!

    ACTIVE makes this so easy with the ACTIVE Dishwasher Cleaner tablets. All you do is put the cleaning tablet in the cleaning compartment of your dishwasher and run a normal cycle. It leaves your dishwasher smelling clean and fresh!

    Don’t forget to clean your dishwasher filter if you have one, and wipe all of the areas around the door of the dishwasher that don’t get cleaned during the cycle.
