Kitchens are a feature in any home or apartment that allows us to cook and store food or other supplies. We use our kitchens for multiple things, so they must stay clean.

3 Ways To Keep the Kitchen in Your Apartment Clean

Given the many potential messes that may occur while cooking, it’s easy to create a dirty kitchen. However, when you use specific methods, your kitchen will remain clean for a while.

Clean As You Cook

Cooking may become messy if you’re not careful, so it’s essential to keep track of any spills or splatter you may have caused. Clean up any mess you make as you go; this includes wiping up any liquids that spread over the counter or pots that you used for cooking.

Helpful supplies:

  • microfiber cloth
  • disinfectant spray
  • dish detergent

The counter space of an apartment is smaller than a house, so it’s important to leave yourself as much room as possible. You can do this by eliminating messes as soon as they arise to keep your apartment’s kitchen clean. If you share the living space, make sure that everyone develops the same habits as you when they cook.

Use Food Ingredients for a Solid Clean

Multiple cleaners in the world will do a great job of keeping your apartment kitchen clean, but those may be harmful when used excessively. A good alternative is using common food ingredients, such as baking soda and apple cider vinegar, to clean any tough stains or dirt.

The acidic nature of these ingredients will break down dirt and grime, and mixing them with water will dilute them so that they aren’t as potent. You will have a product that will compete with most store-bought cleaners.

Good natural cleaners:

  • vinegar
  • rubbing alcohol
  • water
  • baking soda
  • essential oils
  • lemon juice
  • dishwashing liquid
  • salt
  • club soda

Invest in a Splash Screen for the Walls

Keeping messes to a minimum throughout the apartment isn’t easy. You have many responsibilities, and sometimes, they may get in the way of each other.

Consider investing in a splash screen to protect your walls so that you won’t have to worry about cleaning the walls and damaging the paint.

Splatter screens or guards are made from premium-grade stainless steel with an extra fine mesh and allow steam to be released, while stopping 99% of splatter.

Cleaning your kitchen while living in an apartment isn’t always simple. But with these methods, you will have an easier time managing tidiness.
