Keeping Your Sink Drain Clean in the Summer

• The best Calgary house cleaners not only know all
  the tricks of the trade for deep-cleaning your
  home they also know the ins-and-outs of how you
  can keep your home sparkling in between deep
  cleanings. In the summer months, when Calgary
  gets hottest, one of the most challenging parts
  of your house to keep clean is the drain of your
  kitchen sink. Food that gets stuck in the drain,
  paired with the warmth in the air, makes your
  sink the perfect breeding ground for unpleasant
  smells, mould growth and of course, fruit flies.
  Are there any easy ways to keep your sink drain
  clean in the heat of the summer?

• Rinse with Hot Water Regularly The best Calgary
  house cleaners know that a little hot water goes
  a long way. Every time you boil a pot of water on
  the stove or in the kettle for tea, add a little
  extra in there to pour down the drain. The hot
  water will kill off any bacteria or fruit fly
  eggs that have been recently laid.
• Do A Once A Week Vinegar Rinse This is as easy
  as it sounds once a week, in combination with
  your hot water, rinse your drain with a cup of
  vinegar or bleach to really kill off anything
  thats hiding in there. This is a great item to
  add to the weekly task list for your cleaners
  and the best Calgary house cleaners will already
  be doing it.

• Use Paper Towels Instead of Rinsing Your Plate
  Now that Calgary has curb side composting,
  instead of rinsing the food off your plates, use
  compostable paper towels to wipe plates down.
  This is a really easy way to eliminate any food
  getting stuck in the drain, as little bits of
  lunch and dinner are exactly where odours start.
  A deep clean of your drain is something you
  should ask your Calgary house cleaners to do once
  a month or bi-monthly.
