Why strong cleaning SMELLS are not always good.

- Just because you smell cleaner doesn’t mean something is clean. There’s nothing worse that smelling a cleaning that is just to strong. As custodian we want things to not only be clean, but to smell clean. Just not over barring with the smell of cleaner. A good fresh mild smell is ideal for a nice clean smell. Mixing according to the directions. More
Is not always better.
I have been a custodian for over 23 years. The purpose of this channel is to share some of my knowledge with you. I remember the feeling when I first became a custodian. I was given a set of keys, a radio and a badge. Didn't get any training whatsoever. Being a custodian is not rocket scientist knowledge. There are definitely things that a custodian needs to know. I call it the art of the trade. Tips and tricks that can make the job much easier and enjoyable. Contact me: mrjeffcustodian@gmail.com

We’ve taken away lots of the deodorizers and aerosol disinfectant sprays away from the custodians. They would just use them to just mask that they didn’t actually clean areas. The old adage if it smellls clean then it is clean isn’t always true.
Yeap
I clean a gym and purposefully get there over two hours before they open just so I can be alone and clean lol. I enjoyed this topic and with my job being at a gym it makes for a hard balance between removing odors and not using over powering cleaners because members working out need fresh air that doesn't smell like fabul-grosso
We use a virucidal cleaner sanitiser for everything and its odourless.
Definitely love walking into the empty building as well
Going to enjoy this week with no teacher or students.
I love the early morning empty building walk around
So soothing
Your content is greatly appreciated. I'm a custodial supervisor and I've learned a lot from this channel.
I appreciate that thank you.
Amen brother. Some here
We had a teacher at the high school who would complain about everything we used, and believed that only bleach would work. It got so bad we had to just get a spray bottle and some bleach to spray in her sinks to appease her nose.
Oh my
Have you ever smelled an enzyme drain cleaner? It smells so clean.
Yes
I, myself, also have a sensitivity to strong smells. To me the smell of clean does not mean to make it smell like you're in the facility that produces the products.
Point in hand, they can ship every bottle of Fabuloso back to where it came from. 🤮
Yes ship it all back!!!
What is your take on a spray product called "Odor Eliminator"
Never heard of it
@mrjeffthecustodian It's very strong as well. So strong that you have to add water with it to dilute the scent. But it works very well at leaving bathrooms smell fresh afterwards. It basically an air freshener on steroids. 😆
@bryanbrooks2634 sound like if you toned it down it should be good. We had a product like that called fresh start. We would spray bathrooms down with it at very end of the day and leave. There was just enough of the smell in the mornings left over to be just right.
We have that at our school. Unfortunately it's too strong for me to use during the day with kids there. Maybe if you were an evening custodian and I would only spray it on the rugs or inside a toilet so it's not on the tile floors. But I don't really care for it. If there's an odor I like to find it and clean it so it goes away for good.
Mr. Jeff I'm a custodian at a supermarket what do you think of ecolab cleaners ?
Here’s a question for you do you like
@mrjeffthecustodian maybe I should rephrase the question have you ever used the ecolab cleaners? The restroom cleaner is a bit overpowering at times. Especially cleaning the urinals. I have learned a lot from your channel thank you for being an inspiration to us all!!
@ I am not familiar with that product. What I have learned is that a lot of times is when something is overbearing while using. It Tames down over a few hours. So with products I have use in bathrooms like that. I use at the end of the day. By the next morning you can still smell it. But it’s not overbearing just smells enough to be noticeable that it’s clean. I hope that makes sense.
@@mrjeffthecustodian Thank you... We have approved cleaning products to use. Some I like and some I don't. I love my job but would you suggest someone that is 27 years old maybe try and get a job with a school or medical facility? Thank you for the life advice I don't have a dad so I appreciate you!
If you will email me I will send you a link to my other channel. You make enjoy. My email is jdrummer247@gmail.com
