No-Scrub Oven Cleaning
The Maids Columbus • Jul 23, 2012

After you’ve cooked many meals in your oven, you might notice it getting dirtier and dirtier. An essential part of house cleaning is keeping the surfaces you cook and eat on safe and sanitary.

No one likes to spend hours hunched over scrubbing an oven, though; so here’s how you can get a clean oven with no scrubbing.

1. Remove and clean the racks. Place the racks on a towel in your bathtub. Pour in a gallon of vinegar and add two cups of baking soda. When the bubbling stops, add water and soak the racks for an hour. When they’ve finished soaking, wipe dry.

2. Clean the bottom of the oven next. Sprinkle baking soda on the bottom of the oven.Spray or sprinkle vinegar on top of the baking soda and let sit for 20 minutes. Wipe clean. If you see any baking soda residue left, wipe it once more with a damp cloth.

3. Make a baking soda and water paste by starting with a small bowl of baking soda and adding water until it’s thick but spreadable. Rub mixture on the inside walls of the oven, let sit for 20 minutes, then wipe clean. Added note: this paste can be used to clean the front of your oven and your stovetop, as well!

Try these three steps to get a clean oven with minimal effort. If you’re crunched for time, you might want to check with local maid services to see if they have additional services—like thorough oven cleaning—available.
