Speed Clean the Cobwebs

Let's look at a few tips to speed clean your way through cobwebs. Cobwebs hang onto door hinges, window sills, across the tops of blinds and in corners that are just out of reach. Purchase a new one and one-half inch paintbrush from the hardware store and tuck that in your back pocket when you start to clean. When you come across webs in these tight spaces, retrieve the paint brush from your pocket, wisk them away and keep cleaning.

Why are you spending time cleaning cobwebs twice? That is what happens when you use a feather duster or lambswool duster. You clean them once off the ceiling and a second time off the duster.

Instead grab a lightweight towel, dampen it with a bit of water toss it over Mary's Best Home Mop with Extension Handle and knock those webs down fast. Toss the towel in the washer and you've finised in half the time it takes to use a duster.

Clean cobwebs off popcorn ceilings and wood beams. Grab a metal paint roller and attach it to Mary's Best Home Mop with Extension Handle Purchase 2 to 3 replacement tubes of lint removers. They fit right over the paint roller and you can roll the cobwebs off any kind of rough surface. The cobwebs adhere to the sticky tape. Just be sure to keep removing the tape as it soils. This works quite well for stucco ceilings, textured walls, wood beams and wall paper.

When stucco becomes soiled, remove it and redo the ceiling. Painting over stucco usually causes it to be heavy and it will fall down.
