No-Scrub Trick to Cleaning the Messiest Microwaves

After the wait, I took a cloth and simply wiped up the mess (no scrubbing was involved at all – yay)! For a couple of trickier spots, I just dipped the cloth directly into the lemon water and then used that to wipe the mess.

After a good wipe, the microwave looked pretty clean. But there were still some dirty areas in the crevices.

I decided to grab an old toothbrush and dip it directly into the warm lemon water.

Then I used the soaked toothbrush to clean up the hard-to-reach spots.

My microwave is sparkling again! Let’s hope the microwave never gets this bad again. But if it does, I’ll know what to do.
