Cleaning Tips

How to remove chewing gum from carpets and fabric: rub ice on the gum to freeze it and scratch off as much as you can with a blunt knife. If this method isn't effective, heat the gum using a hairdryer, then peel off the melted gum wearing a rubber glove.

How to remove candle wax carpets, fabric, upholstery: solidify the wax by pressing ice against it. Rub off the wax with a blunt knife, and then cover what is left with a piece of kitchen paper and iron over the top with a cool iron. Do not touch carpet fibres directly with the iron.

How to clean solid silver cutlery: line a plastic bowl with aluminium foil, shiny side up. Put a mug of soda crystals in the bowl and add hot water. Put your rubber gloves on, drop in the cutlery. Rinse under a hot tap until no soda remains on them. Buff with a micro-fibre cloth.


How to make your windows sparkle: mix 25% vinegar with 75% water. Soak your cloth in the solution and wipe over the windows. Finish off with a piece of newspaper to buff up the windows.

HEPA Flo bags.

Hetty happy at work!

The star cleaner at Maid In Ayrshire is Hetty the hoover! Hetty never takes a day off work and always has a smile on her face. Hetty also tries to prevent allergies by using her special HEPA Flo bags. HEPA is an acronym for "high efficiency particulate air". HEPA is a filter that can trap a large amount of very small particles that other vacuum cleaners would simply recirculate back into the air of your home. HEPA filters trap small particles that may cause problems for allergy sufferers and others with health problems. Reducing or eliminating those particles will make cleaner air for the residents of your home.
