Im clueless when it comes to cleaning the house. And I'm embarrassed to ask.
How do I clean a toilet? Which detergents do I use?
How do I clean a stove top? Detergents?
An oven?
TIA!
I really want to be a balabuste!

For toilets I use any type of bleach spray like clorox bathroom or even soft scrub gel I wet a sponge and use the abrasive side I put some bleach on the toilet seat, and anywhere where germs can accumulate. and rub it in nicely. Then I make a Mr. Clean bucket and wet a rag in it and rinse every part of the toilet constantly putting it back in the bucket as needed. The inside of the toilet bowl I do mast either with a long toilet brush or a sponge with comet powder and rub it in nicely while I flush the toilet I quickly clean the bottom of the bowl being careful not tk flush the sponge! Then I wipe it clean. I like using a toothbrush by all the small corners. The inside of the tub I use a wet sponge abrasive side with comet powder rub and scrub the whole inside and then use a washcup to rinse the whole tub the outside of the tub and the tub filler I clean with Mr clean. I wash the floor of the toilet with Mr clean (same bucket of hot water and Mr clean) sink is the same as the tub...sometimes I use zud cleaner instead of comet powder.

I use bathroom wipes for the outside of the toilet and the seat and comet for the inside.
If your oven is self clean, follow directions.

Stovetop I use Windex ( or generic type) and a rag or paper towels if it's really bad.

Donāt hide from me,
Though I know the mess is everywhere, truly unfair,
Still in all, I canāt contain it,
Donāt hide from me,
Itās been so long since last time I saw the floor...
Donāt hide from me,
My husband promised he'd lend me a hand, understand,
But he's covering up stains with wood glue,
So donāt hide from me,
I need you now to help me fix this up..
CHORUS 1:
Two thousand toys is a thousand toys too much,
To clean up this mess, I'm really out of touch,
Show me the broom, where is my living room,
Wonāt you please help make this a livable homeā¦
Which shmattaās? Iām so green,
Teach me how to clean,
The one skill this mom must have here,
Oh, Mother dear.
Donāt hide from me,
It seems youāre hiding more and more each day, why, I say,
I keep scrubbing, dirt keeps piling,
Oh, I feel so alone,
Iām calling to you, Mother, help clean my home..
CHORUS 1:
Two thousand toys is a thousand toys too much,
To clean up this mess, I'm really out of touch,
Show me the broom, I need my living room,
Wonāt you please help make this a livable homeā¦
Which shmattaās? Iām so green,
Teeeaaach me how to clean,
The one skill this mom must have here,
Oh, mommy dear.
Who would believe,
The piles of laundry finally are stacked down,
All around,
But the crumbs that stick beneath us,
Donāt want to fall,
Tell me the secret shpritz to clean it all.
CHORUS 2:
Donāt hide from me, itās my one and only plea,
Mother, canāt you see, Iām sweeping endlessly,
Show me the way, I need you today,
Wonāt you please come help clean up this disarrayā¦
Which shmattaās? Iām so green,
Teach me how to clean,
The one skill this mom must have here,
Oh, mother dear....
