Hi, I can't get a window cleaner and I don't fancy climbing up ladders, so does anyone know if those sponge on a long pole things are any good for cleaning the outside of windows? Or is there a better way? Thanks, Derek
Derek, Windex has a product (I forget the name) that you can attach to a garden hose, to clean windows. I haven't used it, so I can't give a recommendation, sorry, but I've seen commercials for it.. hth.. lucy
I LIKE THE OUTSIDE WINDEX. IT HOOKS RIGHT TO YOUR HOSE. I USE IT ALL THE TIME. WYLLADENE
My DH ran around to find that product and washed all the outside windows with it. He seemed to have fun doing it & it did an ok job.
Even if the job wasn't perfect, he now feels like using it again. The more he uses it, the cleaner the windows will be.
Previously, we hadn't cleaned the outsides of the windows in years.
Oh dear. I suppose sometimes the rain washes off a window thereby enabling one to see out but quite frankly if I didn't do my windows at least once a month I may as well block them off. I do have lots of traffic on a main road nearby at the front and the back gets sticky sycamore and the normal dust. perhaps you live in an environment where they don't get so dirty?

We get dust storms and very little rain, but the dust does accumulate. A quick wash with some vinegar water and then squeegee them off and they're sparkling again. We don't really wash them often.
They don't get terribly dirty, plus we have low standards!
Me too and they get lower and lower. The standards, that is.
Do as the professionals, Use Liquid DAWN dish soap!
It is amazing, works perfectly and is very inexpensive. Hose/rinse windows, scrub with brush/pad etc. using sudsy mixture of Dawn and water, then rinse! There you go, clean sparkling windows for a few cents!
Amazing..:)
