The annual Raya celebration is approaching us fast!
For the Malaysian ladies out there, with a brand new year comes the same old responsibility to spring clean in preparation of throngs of visitors and not to mentioned, your IN-LAWS who never cease to check if you’ve become the domestic goddess of their (unrealistically high) expectations.
Working mom? Not a legitimate excuse too because a certain someone will tell you how they got right back to the paddy field, 2 days postpartum!
With all that’s said, your house needs to be cleaned and your dirty clothes need washing regardless, because if you don’t clean your house…we have no words for you.
But worry not because we’ve worked out 5 helpful tips to help you clean your house better TODAY!
We’re all for minimum effort, maximum satisfaction, so here we go:
1. Plastic Chair Dustbin
Here’s one of the oldest tricks in the book- got a large area to clean? Got a lot of stuff to throw out or just want to show off to your loved ones that you’re actually cleaning your house for once? Instead of using your black and boring dustbin that had nothing to store huge trash, take one of these plastic chairs and turn it upside down first.
Then take one of these bad boys and put them over the 4 corners of the chair, BOOM!
An instantaneous, big and easy dustbin to toss things into. You’re welcome.
2. THE DRAWERS
Another life changing pro Raya cleaning tip, remember to check every nook and cranny! And with the nooks, remember to clean your drawers! It’s so easy to forget about our drawers when our focus are on the floor and countertops. When was the last time you’ve cleaned your drawers?
Get on it now!
3. Empty out your Aedes spots
Remember back in the day the government would constantly spam us with anti Aedes commercials? There’s a reason for that, AEDES KILLS. So please, make sure your friends and family are safe this Raya by emptying out those Aedes hotspots today, those places include discarded tires, empty flower pots, still water containers and even the gutter of your house! Remember to empty out those areas and overturn the pots just to be safe!
4. Freshened up your toilets with Mr Muscle Fresh Discs
With so many things to clean during Raya, remember to clean your toilets, too! With all the delicious food that’s going to be served, that toilet is going to see a lot of use (HAHA SORRY CRUDE JOKE) because with Mr Muscle Fresh Discs, you can CLEAN LESS and LIVE MORE. First clean your toilet and make sure its squeeeeeeeeaky clean. Once that’s done simply, pop a Mr Muscle Fresh Disc into the side of the toilet to enjoy long lasting freshness with every flush.
#CleanLessLiveMore ya’ll! With the discs, you’ll finally be able to enjoy a fresh toilet for the whole of Raya week!
Easy squeezy lemon peasy, isn’t it?
5. Thy window
So remember to show them some love by cleaning them thoroughly this Hari Raya, now remember to be careful when you’re cleaning the outside of those windows! Bear in mind it’s SELAMAT Hari Raya, not DANGEROUS Hari Raya.
And with that, enjoy your clean house and fresh toilets this Hari Raya.
