Boots 5p bathroom item makes cleaning ovens ‘much easier’

Homeowners who hate cleaning their kitchen could make the chore ‘much easier’ with a 5p household item. While many people don’t enjoy tackling kitchen grime, especially when dirt accumulates in hard-to-reach areas, it’s an essential task. Thankfully, cleaning pros could use an item found in most bathrooms to leave their kitchens looking spotless.

The savvy method was highlighted on social media by Fabulosa, the cleaning product brand. Stocked by various retailers, including Poundland, the brand, known for its fragranced products, offers a range of items such as disinfectants, polishes, and fabric fresheners.

In a recent Instagram post, one of the Fabulosa team members demonstrated their results after using the Fabulosa Strawberry Pop Multi-Surface Cleanser and a dental flosser to deep clean their kitchen. The caption said: “Tooth flossers and Fabulosa making those places you’re avoiding cleaning, that much easier.” The brand added: “Available in Poundland.”

In the video, the team member is seen using a dental flosser to clean around their hob and under their oven, scraping out dirt and food debris that has accumulated over time, before cleaning the oven door using the Fabulosa product. The video finished by showcasing the results, and the kitchen looked much cleaner.

Homeowners interested in the trick can pick up a pack of 30 dental flossers from Boots for as little as £1.50, with the retailer stocking the Boots Everyday Disposable Flossers Mint 30s online – which works out as 5p per flosser. Alternatively, similar dental products such as interdental brushes could also prove effective.

Regularly cleaning your oven helps prevent grease and stains from accumulating over time. It’s generally recommended to wipe down the oven daily or weekly, and then deep clean it every few weeks or months as needed.

By keeping the oven door clean, homeowners can avoid the need to open the door repeatedly to check on their meals, as they can peer through the door instead – something the Energy Saving Trust advises doing, as opening the door repeatedly lets out hot air, wasting energy and money.

For shoppers interested in the Fabulosa range, some of the products are available to view on Poundland’s website. The brand also sells a £1 Fabulosa Spring Blossom Room Spray.

The product description states: “Easily eliminates trapped, lingering odours with the Fabulosa Room and Fabric Freshener. Killing 99.9% of bacteria and viruses, this spray is an excellent way to keep your upholstery, sofas and soft furnishings hygienically clean and smelling fabulous.”
