    Demand for Cleaning Products Increases by Over 200% During Lockdown as Uk Goes Spring-cleaning Crazy

    BRITAIN has gone spring-cleaning crazy and as a result the demand for home cleaning products has risen by over 200% during lockdown, according to experts.

    The website of cleaning experts Dr Beckmann has seen a staggering 231% increase in traffic since lockdown started, as consumers struggle to book online delivery slots from major supermarkets and face long queues at the doors.

    Experts at the cleaning and laundry company have today issued a Top 10 list of the areas of the home that need extra work as the UK heads into another three-week lockdown. The company has advised that households will need extra attention as we spend more time than usual in our homes.

    Dr Beckmann spokesperson, Susan Fermor said: “As many of us are now working from home, our houses are playing a dual role as an office and a home so many areas will need extra cleaning and attention to combat excess dirt and bacteria that may be building up. Some household jobs may have been overlooked so now is the time to tackle them.”On the increased demand for cleaning products Susan Fermor added, “We’ve seen an unprecedented demand for our anti-bacterial products and our staff have been working hard to cope with the increased demand. We want the nation to feel their homes are getting a robust clean during this pandemic so we’re working as hard as we can to maximise production so there’s enough for every household.”

    TOP TEN AREAS THAT NEED EXTRA CARE DURING LOCKDOWN EXTENSION

    1. Washing machine
      The washing machine can be a breeding ground for germs and bacteria. So, we recommend running the machine with a cleaner specially designed to remove bacteria, such as Dr Beckmann Service-it Deep Clean Washing Machine Cleaner. Ensure the kitchen or laundry room is well ventilated and the washing machine door and drum is left open for a while after use.
    2. Door knobs and handles
      Door knobs, handles and letterboxes are common items that are usually overlooked. Make sure to apply a surface cleaner to the object and wipe every inch and corner, if a small part is missed than it still opens up the risk of spreading germs throughout the house.
    3. Surfaces
      Surfaces in the home are high traffic areas and whether it be in the kitchen or the bathroom they need to be cleaned with anti-bacterial spray to ensure they remain germ free and ready to use.
    4. Floors
      Floors often have unseen dirt and germs and need a deeper clean. Brushing hard floors and then mopping with anti-bacterial products is a good way to keep on top of the dirt and germs.
    5. Pillows & cushions
      These items are getting some extra use during lockdown and need to be washed regularly as a result. Wash cushion covers and for cushion pads or pillows use a non-bio detergent and tumble dry.
    6. Lamps and light fittings
      These are easy to forget but can hoard dust for a long time so need to be dusted with a soft bristled brush and for fabric shades that maybe tricky to remove, a lint roller can be effective.
    7. Hallways
      Hallways quickly build up dirt, especially along skirting boards, so these need to be wiped often. Pets often leave a dirt trail throughout the hallway, once they’ve returned from a walk so extra care and attention will be required.
    8. Front doors
      As we continue to keep two metres distance when outside, front doors can have multiple germs and bacteria on them. It’s important to regularly wipe down the door handle with soap and water.
    9. Clothes
      Washing clothes in extremely hot temperatures isn’t always required and can be harmful to the environment. Tests have proven that washing your clothes at 60 degrees with a good detergent can be just as effective.
    10. Oven
      As we spend another three weeks indoors, the oven will be getting extra use so regular cleaning will be required. Baking soda and vinegar is an effective and cost-efficient way of tackling burnt on food inside of the oven.
