ACTIVITY 4.1 “IDENTIFY IT!”

Learning Competency 4.1: Identify tools, materials, supplies, and equipment

needed in cleaning guest rooms. (TLE_HEHK9- 12RG-If-h-6)

provided.

Gearing Up

Read and familiarize the information below.

Cleaning Solutions
All-purpose cleaner  This type of cleaner works on
most countertops, sinks and
stovetops. If you have granite or
marble countertops, purchase a
product made specifically for
those materials to avoid doing
damage over time.

Glass cleaner  Opt for a streak-free formula to

clean your mirrors, windows and
other glass with less effort.

ii
rrp/2020
Tile and grout cleaner  An acid-based, scrub-free
solution works best on bathtub
and shower tile, as well as toilets.

Wood cleaner  When cleaning wood furniture,

opt for a polish made for the type
of finish on your wood.

Cleaning Tools
Microfiber cloth  Microfibers are mostly made of
polyester, and, unlike cotton, they
leave no lint behind.

Extendible duster  No matter your height, you will be

able to reach the tops of the
ceiling fans in your home with
one of these handy cleaning tools.

Scrubby sponges  The sponge side works well for

most clean ups, while the
scrubby side helps you tackle
tougher jobs. These work in both
the kitchen and bathroom.

Toilet brush  Having a brush that cleans your

toilet, and only your toilet, helps
curb the spread of germs to other
surfaces.

Vacuum  Vacuums work on both hard and

soft surfaces, such as carpet,
floors and upholstery.

Bucket  Using a bucket, as opposed to

filling a sink with cleaning, makes
it much easier to tackle floors.

Microfiber mop  This tool works for many types of

hard surface flooring.

Grout brush  These narrow brushes help you

free grout lines of debris,
resulting in longer-lasting grout.

Rubber gloves  Protect your hands while

cleaning, especially when using
acid-based cleaners or if you
suffer from skin sensitivity.

services. A clean workstation free of debris and clutter is critical to maintaining a
safe work environment. Housekeeping is a continual effort. The proper

What I Need to Remember

Integrated pest management (IPM) is a safe, economical, and

effective way to control pest problems while protecting both human and
environmental health. IPM combines multiple tactics that are the most effective
and least toxic while emphasizing preventative measures and alternatives to
pesticides. If a pesticide is used, it should be the least hazardous and target

xix
rrp/2020
only the pest causing the problem. Taking an IPM approach is more likely to be
cost effective and result in long-term pest control compared to conventional
pest management practices. It is also less hazardous to human health.
