Countless cleaners and organisers have undoubtedly changed our cleaning routines for the better as they continue to share innovative hacks on TikTok.
From conquering filthy oven racks to achieving dust-free blinds in only a few minutes, TikTok proves it has no shortage of effective cleaning tips.
One professional organiser, Caroline Solomon, unveiled six more amazing secrets you may not have heard of yet, and they will surely give your home the makeover it deserves. In a recent TikTok video, Caroline claims her hacks will make your cleaning ‘better, faster, and stronger’.
The first tip guarantees spotless kitchen counters and tables. Caroline advised: “After cleaning a surface overhead, check at eye level for lingering streaks and crumbs.”
Tiny crumbs and streaks can be difficult to detect while standing up but if you crouch down and look across kitchen counter at eye level, you’ll be able to see the areas you may have missed better.
For her second tip, the organisation guru shares how to properly use a microfibre cloth for cleaning mirrors.
"Wipe down surfaces with the rough side, then buff dry with the soft side," she said before boasting her streak-free bathroom mirror.

Next, Caroline reminds users to dust the objects we’ve moved from counters and vanities before putting them back in place– or you’ll be putting a dusty item on a clean surface.
“When putting items back after wiping down surfaces, give them a quick wipe down to remove any lingering dust.”
She adds a follow-up tip, saying: “And when putting items back, line them up neatly against the wall to keep a streamlined look.”
She also recommends incorporating a microfibre dust mop into your cleaning routine. Microfibre dust mops are ideal for picking up dust and dirt, so regularly using them also means you won’t have to mop around the house as often– and we don’t know about you, but that sounds like heaven to us.
Her sixth and final tip provides some clarity on which sponges to use when cleaning. If you’re cleaning a delicate surface, Caroline recommends reaching out for a non-scratch scrub as using a rough one can lead to irreversible damage.
Caroline’s followers loved her handy tricks so much that it garnered over 5,000 views in only a few days, with several expressing their gratitude in the comments.
“I love the dust mop idea!” one user wrote.
“These tips are amazing!” praised another.
However, a third raised a small concern, saying: “Today I learned that my microfibre cloth is supposed to have two different textures… Mine is the same on both sides?”
To which Caroline responded: “That’s okay! Not all (microfibre cloths) have two textures.”.
Another user was interested in knowing how often we need to give our floors a good ole’ fashioned mop.
"Once every one to two weeks depending on how dusty your space is and whether or not you wear shoes indoors," Caroline replied.
