How to clean your mini blinds without taking them down

-

Clean mini blinds without taking them down to avoid leaving windows uncovered. Blinds collect dust, insect debris and stains from spills and splatters. Window coverings and pull strings can also get discoloured over time. Even routine house cleaning like dusting and window washing can soil the blinds. If they’re taken down to be washed in a tub or sprayed outdoors, they have to dry before going back over the window.

Step 1.
Open the blinds and let them down all the way. Pull the bottom out from the windowsill and let it fall to expose all the slats.

Step 2.
Vacuum the loose dust of the slats. Use a brush attachment on the end of the hose and vacuum as much dirt off the tops and bottoms of the slats as possible.

Step 3.
Pour an ounce of antibacterial soap into a bucket with half a gallon of warm water. Slid the cloth around the slat and slide it from side to side. Do this with each and every one. Do not forget to clean the pull strings as well. The bleach and water mix will soak into the strings and restore their white color.
