Any ideas for cleaning ?

Posted by sbelur @sbelur, Oct 19 10:04am

Hi!

How does everyone with PN able to keep house clean specially the shower stalls? Since 3 years before I started getting leg pain I could easily clean shower stalls with magic erasers by going down on my knees. But it’s impossible now. For various reasons I can’t have maids doing it for me. Any device anyone can suggest that can be effective when done standing up?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Hello @sbelur, I bought a long handled scrub brush that I could use standing up that works well. I use it with a spray on cleaner and rinse after scrubbing. I’ve also seen cordless long handled brushes that might make it easier.

Thanks for your response. I too have those but they are not that effective as the magic eraser I used to use manually sitting down. Wish that company made ones with long handles.

@sbelur not sure if this is the same brand or a knockoff but it might be something to consider.

Hello, @sbelur ~
Along with a long-handled sponge or brush that John mentioned, a "miracle " product that I use is a spray cleaner called "Wet and Forget : Shower". It's safe on any surface and works great even if you don't have a water softener. Where I live in Iowa, I haven't found it in grocery stores, but Ace Hardware and also farm-and-home stores carry it. It's in a large white plastic bottle, probably a gallon, and has a hefty hand-held sprayer. I know how difficult and frustrating this task can be, and I don't have outside cleaning help, either. Best to you!

Why don't you write to the Magic Eraser Company. They might develop what you need.

I had the same thought a few months ago and did write to them. They said they’ll keep my request in their records which means nothing😁
