I’m a cleaning pro & here’s 3 places you should never use a microfiber cloth…the sink is a massive no go for starters
A CLEANING pro has shared the three places you should never use a microfiber cloth – and believe us, you’ll want to listen up.
The 23-year-old cleaning fan explained that people often use a microfiber cloth in three places around the home that they really shouldn’t – so if you want your home to be sparkling clean, it’s time you paid attention.
Posting on social media, the cleaning enthusiast said: “Three places you should never use microfiber on.”
The woman then confirmed that microfiber cloths shouldn’t be used on toilets, sinks and floors.
The TikTok user later confirmed: “These places are some of the dirtiest places in your home!
“This is not recommended!
“The problem is when you clean, the cloths bacteria gets trapped in the fibres and you may use it on another surface.
“I worked in infection control. This is common knowledge in the cleaning world.”
She also explained: “These spots are the dirtiest place in your home.
“I have a lot of training in infection control and I could never.
“This tip is mostly for bathroom floors. I always use disposable as there is a lot of pee on the floor.
“I use paper towels for toilets and floors. Then for sinks I spray Lysol before I clean with a sponge. Then rinse.”
The cleaning fan then claimed: “Washing machines do not get hot enough to kill certain bacterias!”
The TikTok clip, which was posted under the username @theamateurcleaner, has clearly left many open-mouthed, as it was shared just three days ago, but has quickly amassed 518,400 views and almost 2,000 likes.
But social media users were left stunned at the clip and many weren’t keen on being told what to do.
One person said: “Don’t tell me what to do.”
To this, the cleaning whizz replied: “You don’t have to listen.”
Another added: “I do it my way. No problem.”
Whilst a third commented: “I use them and just shove them in the wash on 90.”
The cleaning whizz later confirmed: “It’s your decision, I’m just putting it out there, it’s not sanitary.
“You are free to clean how you choose!”
