[quote=Anonymous]I've never had a cleaning service. 1. I have a dusting cloth that's very plush/fur-like and keeps the dust trapped before I shake it outside, which is very important, because one of my kids has an allergy to dust mites. 2. I have a Dyson apartment vacuum with a very narrow, flat head that can vacuum under relatively low furniture, and go into small corners, which is why I bought it. I don't know if Dyson makes it anymore, so I baby the one I have. It does hardwood and carpet. 3. I have the Bona mop system for my tile and hardwood, with different styles of mop heads for each type of floor, and the Bona cleaner, which is non-toxic. 4. Long-handled duster, for mirrors, light fixtures, chandelier, spiderwebs in high places. 5. Baby wipes. My long haired, double coated dog likes to brush against certain walls in my house, and over time leaves residue. I get rid of it by wiping those portions of wall with baby wipes. I tried other ways, but the wipes are the best solution to prevent paint damage yet still gently take stuff off. I also use the wipes on my baseboards. 6. Bathroom. I have old kitchen sponges that get downgraded to toilet duty (also plunger and toilet brush). For the bathtub, sinks, etc, I have a set of (Oxo?) scrubbing brushes of varying sizes, including one that looks like a toothbrush. I also have a cheap plastic hooked snake thing to fish out the girls' long hair out of the bathtub drain, as well as a really neat drain cover that also traps hair (TubShroom). Other than the Bona floor product, I mainly use vinegar to clean. [/quote]
