    26 Things To Help You Clean The Things Around Your House You *Dread* Cleaning

    No more waiting five years just to clean the toilet.

    1. A dryer lint brush, because even though you clean out the lint trap *every* time, there's likely SO much more hiding in your dryer gap and exhaust port. This tool makes it easy to get all that yuckiness out and will leave you feeling like your clothes are extra clean the next time you dry a load.

    2. A microfiber hand duster to get all those hard-to-reach places like your ceiling fan and the tops of your TV, cupboards, and picture frames.

    3. A toilet bowl ring remover so you can stop gagging every time you go to use it. It also makes for a great arm workout! 💪

    4. An oven cleaner to remove grime, stains, and caked-on food — all in a matter of minutes.

    5. A jetted tub cleaner because you have no idea what's hiding in those jets of yours. Better to just do the dirty work now, rather than find some unwanted surprises the next time you're trying to take a relaxing evening bath.

    6. A splurge-worthy robot vacuum that does all the dirty work for you. It'll even slide right under your coffee table and suck up all your TV-watching dinner crumbs, because who knows the last time you *actually* cleaned under there.

    7. A rust stain remover, perfect for anything with an orange hue that probably shouldn't have one. 🍊

    8. A pack of Magic Erasers because, unfortunately, a lil' scrubbing is actually necessary from time to time. At least with these, you'll get the best possible results for each unit of effort exerted — which is more than any other cleaning tool out there.

    9. A stainless steel cleaner to instantly wipe away those mysterious streaks and smudges that somehow always appear on your fridge, oven, and sink.

    10. A bottle of red wine stain remover, because that stain on your couch looks a bit like a crime scene. Best of all, you won't be embarrassed anymore when someone moves the throw blanket you've strategically placed to cover it up.

    11. A set of drill brushes for anyone who's seriously looking to take their cleaning game to a whole new level. They're great for cleaning things like tile, grout, door tracks, and even... stovetops?!

    12. A grout cleaning pen to restore your grout tile lines and instantly take your bathroom from drab to fab.

    13. A pack of Keurig-cleaning cups because, despite all the deliciousness that comes out of that glorious machine, there's likely a whole lot of grime and gunk hiding on the inside that has no business being in your morning coffee.

    14. An odor-eliminating spray designed to obliterate stains AND stenches. Your whole, "I'll clean it later" approach only works for so long, until a nauseating smell starts wafting through your home...

    15. Or this instant spot remover if you need more help with the stain than the smell. BTW, have you ever checked your mattress for stains? Who knows what's under all those linens. Might be worth taking a peek. 🥴

    16. A pack of dishwasher-cleaning tablets because, yes, your dishwasher does need to be cleaned occasionally despite the fact that its literal job is to wash the things you put inside it.

    17. And washing machine tablets to eliminate any mold or mildew secretly waiting to stink up your favorite hoodie.

    18. A blind cleaner brush because little did you know, those lil' plastic things can get suuuuper D-U-S-T-Y!

    19. A pet hair removal tool that's basically a heavy-duty lint roller. BUT, you can use it over and over again because it doesn't use sticky pads — just empty out the roller trap after each use. *Magic.*

    20. A pack of bottle-cleaning tablets that make cleaning your water bottles and tumblers less of a headache. If you're the person who just "rinses out" their reusable water bottle once a month with, well, more water, your bottle is likely filled with unwanted bacteria and grime.

    21. A water mark removing cloth because you're always spilling drinks down the side of your nightstand (that just so happens to be a family heirloom) and you need to get it back in shape before your mother comes over next weekend and discovers your reckless ways.

    22. A portable carpet and upholstery cleaner that'll leave you nothing short of *shocked* when it magically restores your furniture and carpet right before your eyes. 😲

    23. A portable vacuum cleaner designed specifically to clean and detail your car. It easily plugs into your car's outlet, and even comes with additional attachments so you can get all those hard-to-reach nooks and crannies.

    24. A jug of Wet & Forget Shower Cleaner that'll work to remove all the mysterious build-up on the floor and walls of your shower. Best of all, no scrubbing required! You can literally spray it, forget about it, and the grime will begin to erode and disappear down your drain.

    25. A box of sink disposal cleaner designed to scrub away grunge and odor-causing build-up from sidewalls, blades, and under the splashguard with its oh-so-satisfying foaming formula.

    26. And a bottle of outdoor multipurpose cleaner, because this is the year you're finally going to get your backyard looking spiffy again.
