As spring arrives in the UK, windows often become grimy due to pollen accumulation. Emily Tweten, a mother and founder of Hearty Sol, suggests an effective cleaning method using three common kitchen ingredients: vinegar, rubbing alcohol, and cornflour. This combination not only cleans but also prevents streaks on glass surfaces. Cornflour acts as an absorbent, drawing in pollen and dust, while vinegar's acidity helps break down grime like tree sap and oils. Rubbing alcohol disinfects and accelerates drying, ensuring a streak-free finish. To prepare the solution, mix 60ml of white vinegar, 480ml of warm water, 240ml of rubbing alcohol, and one tablespoon of cornflour. Shake well before spraying on windows and wipe with a soft cloth to achieve spotless results without the need for expensive cleaners. This simple method is especially useful as pollen season intensifies.
