Favorite Kitchen and Household Scrubber?

Sooner — Thu, 12 Dec 2024 21:56:57 GMT

I just cleaned the baseboards in the laundry room, and the edge where the tile and wall connect. I used Scotch Brite blue sponge scrubbers, Scotch Brite wand soap-refill dish scrubbers (my favorite thing!), a brush, and one of those damp clean sponge/duster things (which I like a lot). Those sort of rounded dense sponges with the little "fins"on top.

I didn't have fun, but it wasn't too bad. But it made me wonder if you all know some scrubbe I need! Your favorite!

Scour Daddy, very similar to Dobie, have a mesh outer covering, but better, than Dobie, last forever, and no odors. Love these mainly for dishes, pots and pans.

I do use scrub daddies in my kitchen, but not to scrub my baseboards. I have no painted wood in my home. All my baseboards are cherry wood and stained and sealed.

I just dust them often and if they need washed, I use a damp microfiber cloth.

Wouldn't those harsh scrubby things take the paint off?

@Carmie Thanks. I have used Scrub Daddy on tile, but not so much in the kitchen. I will have to try that The Scotch Brite sponge and scrubber pads are great for the corners of things--the little "hook" really gets where other things do not!

I used microfiber cloths and a soft brush on the baseboards and a mild all purpose cleaner. Especially where we moved some shelves in the laundry room. OH my! I think I could have buit a cat behind one!

@Harpa Just asked my husband if he would pay me what we paid the recently moved-out-of-state housekeeper. He said he'd pay me more because I'm doing REAL cleaning!

Glad you suggested this! As my manager now, you get a cut! Harpa's House Help! Will Clean for Cash! *We do not take crypto.
