My screen was horrific, this worked fantastic and now my screen looks brand new. Thank you so much for this tip
Hi Leah! I had to tell you ASAP....because of all your videos, I was able to prepare my house to be put on the market to sell! There is a bidding war going on for the house!! THANK YOU SOOOOO MUCH!
giftboutiq Congratulations!
that's fantastic! congratulations!
CrankyPants thank you !!!!
I just love your videos. Not only are they informative, but you have such a soothing manner and voice. It really helps people like me feel less anxious about tackling a project. Can’t wait to try this one on my grimy RV screens!
THIS WORKED FANTASTIC!!!!! I have been looking for an easier way to clean my screens and it doesn't get any easier then this. Thank You!
I have been subscribed to your site for about six months. Now I was looking on how to clean these bloody screens and there you were. I thought you were just nails and wood. Oh my gosh there’s just no end to let you know!
Thanks Leah! I just tried this and can't believe how amazing my screens look and how fast it was. Wow!
my son and I love your videos and we find them very simple knowledgeable and helpful. thank you.
you're very welcome, Amy, glad you like them!
For those of us on a well, or in a drought, or both - this is fantastic! HF here I come, well when the free coupons come out...Thank you once again for great advice and adding to my to do list. Y'all are going to keep me busy lol
Leah great tip! That screen looked brand new at the end! Gonna invest in some quality microfiber towels now! Maybe a shamwow!!! Lol thanks again!
That worked really, really well. It seems like when I use soap and water on screens, it just gums the dirt up. I'll certainly try this method next time. Thanks, Leah.
Perfect video! Straight to the point and very helpful. Thank you SO much!
Yep, I'm hooked. Can't stop watching your videos. You are amazing! You are like Martha Stewart. You can do EVERYTHING!!!!
Very cool, hopefully this should work well for screened in porches.
Thanks Leah.
This is such a great tip. I used it to clean the dryer filter. Sometimes the build up on the filter would get so bad I would have to soak the filter in soapy water then scrub it with a toothbrush. With the micro fiber cloth there was no soaking or scrubbing. The build up wiped write off. Thanks again.
Hey, Katrina, great idea...thanks for sharing this with the community!
Finally i was looking for video that can help me with my screen. Winner!! Thank you...
You are my HERO! I like to sit and look out my windows, whether it’s at my garden and bird bath or just people watching the passers by, but my windows and screens were so dirty it was getting to be difficult. I have some microfiber clothes down in my basement I haven’t even used, so I don’t have to go out and buy anything. Can’t wait to see if it works!
Ps- do you have any tips for cleaning windows with multiple sliding layers of glass? I’m not sure what they are called so I don’t even know how to google it. These windows were installed to prevent local airport noise, and there’s two layers of glass that can be opened and closed to block out the noise. Despite the major part being designed to tilt inwards for easy cleaning, the outermost panels are hard to get to and collect the most dirt. Thanks!
Glad I found this video. I'm wanting to clean the screens around the house without taking them off. I'm gonna give this a try really soon. Looks great! Thanks for the ideas! 👍
Once again, an excellent and labor saving tip. Thanks!
Another Leah instant miracle! Thank-you!
I needed this two weekends ago. This looks a lot easier than my method of soapy water and a soft scrub brush which required 2 go-rounds. 👍🏻
Thanks for the tip!! I live in the woods and in the south, so my windows can be open every month of the year. THIS is something I'm going to do on my filthy screens asap!
excellent tip. I have dirty screens and need to do this. Thank!!!!!!
Thanks ! Any ideas about cleaning over -lapping windows that can't be
removed ?
Wow! I never would have thought of trying this! I always removed the screens and scrubbed and hosed them down. Amazing! Thank you! :)
This really works. Thank you so much.
Another great, super-helpful video- thanks, Leah! I gotta tell you, this will come in handy. 😉 Keep up the great work! 👍🏼
Thank you so much! It worked like a charm!
Wow, never to old to learn...thank you
Thanks for the great advice. Always enjoy you videos.
Might work on dryer lint screen also
Works great. Thanks.
Great, Leah! How do you clean mini blinds without taking them down???
Brilliant! Easy and fast. Thank you for the tip!
Gosh! Thank you so much for sharing! 🙏This is a loooot easier than the other ones I know.
Baby wipes work well, too. They work well for windows, screens, plastics, metals, glass, leather... I even use them to clean monitors. Swipe it across a few times, and then come at it with a dry paper towel, or microfiber cloth. It'll pick up everything. Something like a dollar for 100 sheets, and you don't have any rags left to clean up afterwards.
i can see how that would be good
Thank you for this awesome video! I had so much fun doing this lol! 🤗
Great vid short and sweet
Great tip! Thanks😀
This is a fantastic tip.......try it...you won't be disappointed.....rinse the micro every so often....you'll be amazed at what comes out when you wring it.....BEST TIP !!!!!
Interesting didn't know that could clean like that.
Hello Leah Great video like always...can you do a video on removing mold thanks
Wow! That's pretty awesome!!! Thank you! 😁😁😁
We overuse cleaning products when all we need to use is water! I clean professionally and i stopped using Windex on windows and mirrors. Now I use special microfiber cloths with water and they turn out just as clean, even better than when used with a cleaning agent. Saves SO much money!
That sounded like a metal screen,does it work on softer material screens?Such as nylon
Wow, this works amazingly 🙏🏽🙏🏽
Apt dwellers moreso due to limited space and only a few windows. If you live in a house with 25 screens you have to streamline the process. Take down all the screens out to the lawn, patio or driveway, hose off using a soft baby bottle brush (find in grocery store) a quick swipe will pull all the lint dirt off. Tap to shake off water. Stack on edge. Don't use soap unless its a kitchen window screen. It's not necessary and will leave spotty residue. stack on edge against something ( side of the garage works good) to allow draining and drying. Takes about 30 mins to take down screens from the inside, upstairs and main floor, 15mins to wash outside. If you have older wooden screens that require a ladder outside to take down, forget it, Leah's way will probably work better.
I use a little dish washing detergent and never had "spotty residue".
Great video
simple less mess and saves time - used two cloths on each screen each side and washing out cloths in-between each screen - never hosing again thank you
Especially if you can remove the screen (or get it from the outside ... with the window closed!) isn't hosing off a lot easier?
AnnoulaXeni hosing off wouldn't clean my screens at all. I'm in west Texas where the wind lodges the dirt into the screens. They have to be scrubbed 😩. Simple spraying sounds great though. 😁
@@annajackson2239 if people from Arizona are cleaning it with water hose, so can you.
@@llamacebu216 Yes, however in Arizona we are always aware of water consumption. Well, more of us should be. But Leah's method is easier, cleaner, and faster, at least in my experience. Really, be willing to embrace change.
nice idea, i usually just use old news paper for very dirty thing and than use cloth after a bit cleaner.
I’d run a hose on the mist setting then use dawn soap on the microfiber clothe to clean the screen, you have to be careful that the screen does not pop out and the way you wiping it is rough
Wonderful! I will tackle my screen door at last with the microfiber without having to take it off its hinges. Thank you!
Thank you.
Thank you!
Perfect for Phantom Double screen door screens that can not be removed or hit with a power washer. Thank you!
Thank you
Nice! I was going to use my pressure washer. I like your idea better.
rlund3
Ack! Unless you have wooden screens with steel mesh never use a pressure washer on screens that use fiberglass mesh and a rubber gasket and spline. The pressure will push the screen fabric out of the splines or stretch the fabric leaving the once taut screen wavy and rippling. Fiberglass screens are stretched perfectly tight on the frame before securing into the channel and the fabric trimmed flush with the frame. Once it's dislodged from the channel or over stretched out, you can't disassemble and re-stretch back into the frame very easily because there is no extra fabric margin to grab onto to hold it in place while you press the gasket back in the channel. Buying new fabric is expensive. My husband made that mistake using a garden hose with a pressure nozzle and lived to regret it.
Sorry, it was a tongue in cheek comment. Seriously, I was not sure what to do.
i have to try this !
:)
THATS PRETTY WILD. THANKS
Wow ive never cleaned my screens! Lol thank you!
I have such a huge crush on Leah.
I bought a microfiber cloth to use and the two sides of the cloth are a little different. Does it matter which side I use on the screen? Or did I buy the wrong type of material?
I love it ❤️
First, I can’t believe a screen could get that dirty in one year. Secondly, seems to be much more labor intense; you were breathless when you finished.
has anyone tried steam cleaning for the window screens?
Awesome work but do you need to remove the screen to clean it? Might be a bit tedious if you have a house full of window screens that need to be removed in order to be cleaned.
No, she says she only removed the screen to make the video, and it's easier and more stable if you leave it in the window. I love those microfiber cloths.
Using a dustpan brush first works pretty well for me. Often that’s all I need.
I do it with the screen still in the window.
If you find the dust is blowing back in the house, having a fan blowing in from another window can help create negative pressure to push the dust out rather than in.
You clean only one side?
Always best to wash micro fiber towels by them selves and with a micro fiber detergent regular detergent will cause them to leave a waxy coating on mirrors cars ect. Cheers
that's a good recommendation
Is hosing screens down okay though? It’s always worked for me.
sure...it's just that it doesn't always work with built-up dirt, so this is just another option for folks to try
Great technique but still a workout on my six sets of eight foot sliders.
!!suggestion!! whomever you have recording behind the camera, ask them to pull their face away from the mic - all i heard the whole time was them breathing throughout the video !!suggestion!!
Pressure washer works wonders. Careful though.
Didn't work for me. My only screen is on the kitchen window. It hadn't been through a cleaning in 10 years. I ended up scrubbing the screen with a brush and soapy water and rinsing it off.
Dear God, is this house in the desert 🌵
Looks difficult. Just take it outside and hose it off.
My goodness......wouldn't soapy water help?
I guess her method is OK if your lazy to take them down to wash and rinse.
@@dkupy100 soapy water = more mess = more work. Easier, time saving using this method, but to each their own.
@@dkupy100 Too "lazy" or too smart? Me, I like quick and simple. Then I have more time for something fun. Makes sense to me.
Soap wouldn't help?
Better wash it!
yayyyy
🙂
Takes many minutes, not seconds!
my self I just use the shower it takes no effort and clean it throughly
hmmmm
I clean my screens in the shower with dirt cheap Suave shampoo.
Same here
How slow is that? Make $1 an hour with this method. I clean screens , like new, n 15 seconds.
Seconds? 2.36min video ;D. But really, nice one.
The better way to clean the screen is to use water, soap and a brush. While I can still see the dirt on this method, not with the water and brush method.
OMG wiping down a dirty screen with a damp rag cleaned it! I would've never thought to do this. Seriously this is insulting, your viewers must be dim.
At last something your good at cleaning as a woman should be doing
mr b Come on, dude, be more respectful here. Don't broadcast your insecurities like that.
You would enjoy the First Grade. That's when you first learn the difference between "your" and "you're". It's reinforced in the Second and Third Grades, so stick with it!

Why would you not vacuum it first? Probably would have helped a lot.
