Cleaning is an interesting one.

I’d never given it much thought but I did the house top to bottom once and it’s incredible how inefficient some of the accepted practices are for house cleaning.

Showers for example. People actually scrub each tile and grout line by hand? I hooked up a brush attachment to my power drill, sprayed a solvent that broke up the soap scum and lipids that actually cause the residue that gets in the grout and the entire shower enclosure looked brand new.

Cleansers for kitchen use are also strange to me. You ever check all the chemicals in the household cleaners they sell? I mix up a little dawn with some lemon juice and throw in a small amount of bleach to kill germs then add water in a sprayer and it cleans and smells better than the chemical cocktail they sell you at the store.
