A TikTok ‘cleanfluencer’ has unveiled five handy hacks for nailing spring cleaning this year – and it only requires one 89p product. The social media star has found a 4-in-1 Aldi product that cleans blinds, walls, toilets and more.
Kayleigh Tenant, known as @cleanwithkayleigh, has a two million strong TikTok following, and uses her platform to share her innovative cleaning tips.
In a recent video, she revealed that she uses one single Aldi product - the Powerforce 4 in 1 Disinfectant - to clean five different areas of the home.

The TikTok video has already racked up likes and comments in their thousands with one follower declaring the cleaning hacks ‘life-changing’.
Kayleigh’s handy hacks show how to halve the time it takes to clean blinds, while also making walls look stain free in a matter of minutes. Meanwhile, she completely refreshed the look and scent of both her bins and toilet and created eco-friendly DIY disinfectant wipes for under £1.
Aldi’s Powerforce 4 in 1 Disinfectant is available in three scents including Linen, Pink Grapefruit and Lavender. Kayleigh opted for the linen scent, commending it for smelling ‘absolutely gorgeous.’
Hack one: Blind cleaning
Add one cap full of the Powerforce 4 in 1 Disinfectant into an empty spray bottle and dilute with water
Using kitchen tongs with silicone tips, wrap microfibre cloths around the silicone tips of the tongues (this will help the cloths grip on)
Using the diluted disinfectant spray, dampen the cloths all-over, then run the dampened clothes over blinds
This technique allows both sides of each individual blind slat to be cleaned at the same time
Hack two: DIY wipes
Start by adding diluted disinfectant to a jar. Then add clean microfibre cloths to the jar, allowing them to absorb the liquid
Once absorbed, these can then be used as DIY disinfectant wipes, with the disinfectant’s shine properties leaving an extra shiny finish
No need to add to landfill, simply throw them in the washing machine once used.
Hack three: Bin cleaning
Use the disinfectant diluted into a spray bottle to clean inside and outside bins
For extra freshness, add some neat disinfectant to a paper towel and place in the bottom of the bin
Thanks to the long-lasting freshness of the disinfectant, the bin will continue to give a whiff of clean scent each time it's opened.
Hack four: Wall cleaning
It’s well known that diluted disinfectant works well for cleaning the floors, but this hack uses the same method with a mop and disinfectant to freshen up walls
This works perfectly for cleaning hard-to-reach areas of walls and ceilings
Quick tip – a clean mop must always be used for this technique to avoid any wall stain
Hack five: Toilet cleaning
Using the diluted disinfectant in a spray bottle, spray this down the toilet
Using toilet paper to wipe this away allows the dust and dirt to stick to the toilet paper acting like a magnet rather than pushing the dust and dirt around the toilet
Once the toilet is clean, add a capful of neat disinfectant into the toilet bowl and place the toilet brush into bowl
This disinfects the toilet brush and leaves the bathroom smelling great thanks to the odour eliminating properties of the disinfectant
