5 Refrigerator-Friendly
Cleaning Solutions

Dishwashing soap
and warm water solution
Always start by turning off your fridge taking out all
the items, as well as the shelves and drawers from
the appliance. Fill a basin with part warm water and
part dishwashing liquid soap and soak a microfiber
cloth or a sponge before wiping all surface areas of
the refrigerator. Leave the solution for at least 5-10
minutes.
Soak another cloth or sponge in warm water to
rinse. Do the same process for the shelves and
drawers. Never use disinfectants like bleach when
cleaning your refrigerator. Bleach functions as
oxidizers and is a strong and effective disinfectant
so it can affect the items that you put within your ref.
Even if you dilute it with water, it might still affect the
food and eventually to your health. Also, never mix
bleach with another chemical. If mixed with another
staple household cleaner ammonia, can cause toxic
fumes or in some cases an explosion.

Baking soda trick
A little cleaning trick when you have a fridge that
smells is to place a small amount of baking soda
on the bottom or where the stink is coming from.
Baking soda acts as deodorizers so placing 1 cup
of baking soda at the bottom part of your fridge
can help neutralize the smell. Make sure to replace
the baking soda every three months.
Of course, you also have to check for expired items
or spoiled food that you might be storing in your
ref that’s causing any unpleasant odor. Milk leaks,
in particular, create a pungent odor so be sure to
regularly check products in your refrigerator and
throw anything that’s out of date or spoiled.
If your ref has stubborn stains, try mixing a small
amount of baking soda with water to produce a
thick paste-like material. Apply the paste to the
stain at letting it rest for 30 minutes before wiping it
with a damp cloth or sponge.

Vinegar is a natural cleaner
For a chemical-free refrigerator cleaner, try diluting
1 cup of white vinegar with 2 cups of hot water and
put in a spray bottle. You can add a bit of lemon
essential oil for a fresh citrus scent. Spray the
mixture inside the refrigerator and let it sit for 2-3
minutes then wipe any food stains or splatters with
a damp cloth.
You can also use this solution to clean drawers and
shelves. If there are stains, you can scrub it using a
good quality sponge. If the shelves are made of
glass, let them adjust to room temperature first
before cleaning.
The hot water and vinegar solution will help loosen
stains, kill bacteria, and eliminate undesirable
odors in your fridge. You can also spray the front of
your refrigerator with the homemade solution and
wipe it with a damp cloth after. You can use this
solution to clean other appliances as well as your
microwave.

Multipurpose wipes for easy cleaning
If you need to quickly clean your ref or just sanitize
a particular area then using multipurpose wipes
can do the trick. Wipes can easily remove visible
dirt and grease and can be a perfect solution for
spills. If doing a deep-cleaning using wipes, best
to start from the top and work your way down so
you don’t spend time cleaning drips and spills.
You can use anti-bacterial cleaners but make sure
that it’s safe to use to clean a refrigerator. Some
kitchen cleaners can be very strong because they
contain chemicals that kill germs that build up in
the kitchen area. Always follow the instructions on
the cleaning product label. Remember that food
absorbs odors so it’s better to use unscented
cleaners.

Check and double-check
As a family, everyone must maintain the cleanliness
of the refrigerator. So clean any spills as soon as
you see one because spills tend to drip on other
items inside your ref and can spoil or damage them.
Wash your hands before and after cleaning your
refrigerator and make sure to use gloves while
cleaning it.
Make sure to sanitize the handle properly because
the refrigerator is opened multiple times in a day
by different members of the household so handles
must get special attention in the cleaning
department.
Always check if you hear something wrong with
the motor every time you clean and check the fridge
lights for issue every time you clean. To check for
leaks, try placing a flashlight inside the ref and close
the door. Do this while the house lights are turned off
and if you see any light from the ref escape, there
could be a potential leak.
