 The accumulated dirt can be quite disgusting and gross,Tips to Easily Clean your Microwave Articles from the pieces of food that were scattered inside during microwaving. The cleaning of the oven can be a real challenge especially if you no idea how to effectively clean it. is it possible for the microwave to be easily cleaned?

 First, try to maintain it as clean as possible! Food that you warm or cook should be properly covered.

In my opinion, if you use such a cover and you also tell others about its existence, they will probably cover the food before placing it in the oven. The cover should be easily reached and placed next to the microwave for regular use and convenience.

 Additionally, mixing, stopping chowders, soups and various other liquids during the warming process will lead to an even warming and will prevent them from splashing and leaving dirt inside. It is also important not to over warm any food as in such case the inside sprayed all over. Although, these sounds good, but you can’t maintain the microwave clean especially if you have children and more or less messy adults.

 Start cleaning the inside of the microwave with a wet sponge to eliminate loose debris and crumbs. With a blunt object or with a fingernail try to remove all substances that easily come off. Be persistent, yet gentle and you’ll be surprised how much filth can be easily eliminated. Use an all purpose cleaner to spray the inside and after a couple a minutes you can wipe it off. Repeat the process if there is still some filth inside.

 Most microwaves will still remain dirty at some degree. In such case, spray additional cleaner agent inside and start the microwave for about 30 to 60 seconds. After that the filth should come off a lot easier. The exterior can also be wiped down with the cleaner and a sponge.

 The steam from the hot water will loosen the dirt and the enzymes in the citric acid will cut through the grease. While you're waiting, you can do something fun, like figure out what you want for dinner.

 It is faster and simpler if the microwave is regularly cleaned.
