I'm a cleaning expert – how to get your microwave squeaky clean in 30 minutes – there's one part you always forget | The Sun

A CLEANING expert has revealed a simple way to get your microwave clean in just 30 minutes and one part you should never forget to wash.

Viewers were shocked to know not only that this part of the microwave existed, but that this same solution works for another appliance.

"Remember to clean the vent under your microwave" the TikTok video read.

The video showed a sink full of water with a mix of "dish soap, vinegar, and hot water" poured into it.

@anxietyscrubs recommends letting the vent sit for 30 minutes in the solution.

"I can't do this with one hand," the voiceover said while hands scrub the grates of the vent.
