TikTok is known for its short and engaging videos. Apart from its famous dance challenges and lip-syncing, TikTok has also become a medium for innovative cleaning hacks that make tidying up your living spaces quicker, more efficient, and even enjoyable. From repurposing everyday items to using unexpected ingredients, TikTok users have shared creative cleaning solutions that have gone viral. Check out a few.
Removing stickers using hair dryer
We often encounter stubborn stickers on many household items. According to TikTok videos, a blow-dryer can help loosen these stickers. To do this, set your hair dryer to a low setting and wave it over the sticker from about six inches away until the sticker becomes translucent. Then, carefully peel it off leaving a clean surface. Finally, wipe any residue with a lint-free cloth.
Remove pet hair with a rubber glove
A rubber dish glove does the trick. Put one on and rub it over areas with a lot of pet hair such as carpets, or couches. The hair will come right off and cling to the glove. Many internet users have confirmed its effectiveness. It is said the surface can be cleaned with a couple of sweeps by the rubber glove.

Your tool is ready. Now swipe across horizontal blinds to clean them. While this hack worked for most people, it was reported to be time-consuming by some.
