Sara Lynn Cauchon explains how to clean your fridge the domestic diva way.

1. Plan your attack.

The best time to overhaul your fridge is just before you hit the market, when it's likely to be the least full.

2. Clear the shelves.

Before you do anything else, empty out the fridge completely. That way, you'll be able to see that spilled milk all the way in the top back corner. Use a cooler to temporarily store food while you're cleaning.

3. Keep or toss?

To keep or toss, that is the question. As you're emptying the fridge, check all expiry dates and wipe down containers with a damp cloth.

4. Start scrubbing.

Baking soda and water is the safest solution to use to clean your fridge. Avoid chemical cleaners or anything with a strong odour as they could affect your food.
