Matt Johnson, PhD explained the psychology behind our obsession with pumpkin spice. He said: "With each passing fall season, pumpkin spice becomes more and more iconic. "The flavour and scent [have] become inextricably tied to memories of autumn, Christmas holidays and traditions, creating an emotional connection that brands capitalise on." The professor explained how the general flavour or pumpkin spice is "rooted in the seasonal foods we typically enjoy during autumn", and has become so iconic, it returns bigger and better every year. Not only does it impact food and drinks, but autumnal interior design has exploded over the past few years, and households actively decorate their houses with seasonal displays.

Mrs Hinch fans share 55p item to get mouldy washing machine drawers sparkling again
The cleaning experts fans have shared a cheap, effective way to make your machine look new again. Washing machines are designed to clean clothes, but they also need regular scrubbing to stay fresh themselves. This is particularly true of the detergent drawer. Because the drawers are used frequently, softener and detergent can cause mould to build up, making them look grubby. The narrow drawers are also hard to clean, so they are often left for long periods of time. There are cleaning products on the market that promise to clean your drawers in seconds. However, these can be pricey and often not very reliable. So, what is the best way to get your washing machine drawer sparkling clean? Fans of cleaning guru Mrs Hinch —real name Sophie Hinchliffe—believe the process is simple and involves a cheap household item that you probably already have in your kitchen cupboards. Posting on the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips Facebook group, one person asked recently: 'Has anybody got any suggestions on how to get rid of black mould in the washing machine drawer?' And cleaning fans were quick to respond, with several people telling the woman to remove the drawer, soak it in a bowl of water, and use a washing-up liquid, which can be bought for as little as 55p from Asda. One person said: 'Washing up liquid is great for this, simple and so effective.' For the best results, Mrs Hinch fans recommend cleaning the drawer after every use, so that mould doesn't have the chance to build up. There are many reasons why mould may grow in the washing machine drawer, including excess detergent, which can cause soap scum that can get caught and turn into mould. Homewares deal of the week Looking to beat the heat as temperatures continue to rise? Then look no further than Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that has an almost perfect five star rating for its small, yet mighty, design that means it works "even on the lowest setting." Easy to connect via a USB cable that can be connected to laptops and computers, this desk fan is perfect for those who find themselves working from home on these sweaty, humid summer days. However, it doesn't need to remain plugged-in, as the rechargeable element and compact six-inch design means it can be taken anywhere, even placed on a bedside table overnight on summer nights thanks to its "quiet" operation. It's finished with four speed settings to choose from and an adjustable angle that can help direct the cool breeze where it is needed, unlike other models that can sometimes be stuck in one place. As for Dunelm's own mini desk fan, it has received an impressive 4.8 rating from impressed shoppers who say that, despite its size, it is "surprisingly powerful" and "a literal life-saver" during this kind of weather. One five-star review read: "Fantastic fan, surprisingly powerful, quiet, lasts for quite a long time when charged, very hard to find a decent small rechargeable fan but this is it, will be buying more!" Beat the heat with Dunelm's White Rechargeable USB Desk Fan that costs just £25. Washing at temperatures below 40 degrees regularly can also leave behind some residue, which facilitates the growth of mould and dirt. Meanwhile, other cleaning fans recommended using white vinegar instead of washing up liquid. The product is known for its versatility in tackling a variety of cleaning jobs. It can dissolve hard water and cut through grime, making it ideal for washing machine drawers. And for another alternative, some commenters in the same Facebook group suggested putting the drawer in the dishwasher if you have one or soaking it in water with a dishwasher tablet.

Sarah Dempsey, a cleaning expert from MyJobQuote, recently shared the best method to clean inside of your washing machine. Sarah said: 'The best way to clean your washing machine seal is to run a hot wash cycle.' The expert added that there are some household products that you can use to clean your washing machine. She added: 'For example, you can spray the washing machine drum with white vinegar and wipe it all around the drum with a clean cloth. "This will help to get rid of residues and hard water stains and can even lift away grease easily."

Keep dust off skirting boards for three weeks with 'game-changing' cleaning method
A mum has shared a simple yet effective hack to keep skirting boards clean for longer, and you only need one household item Cleaning skirting boards can be a proper pain, as they appear to collect dust again moments after being cleaned. The summer months frequently worsen the problem in houses with heightened dust levels, especially when windows are left open, and skirting boards are particularly vulnerable to dirt due to static electricity build-up. Similar to your blinds, timber and plastic skirting boards build up static charge, drawing dust, pet fur, and other debris to stick to them. However, there's no need to constantly grab the hoover, as Natasha Gore shared on the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips and Tricks Facebook page a "game-changing" tip that's kept dust away from her skirting boards for more than three weeks: fabric conditioner. Unblock sink in five minutes by putting one natural item down the drain Carpet stains that 'won't budge' will come out with one 'powerful' bathroom item Sharing a snap of a cleaning mixture in a spray bottle alongside spotless white skirting boards, Natasha explained: "So this is my Lenor mixed with water, and as you can see from the picture, I have thick white silicone around my skirting boards. "The dust that sticks to it is the bane of my life! I usually just use a damp cloth, but the dust sticks to the silicone, and it takes forever, so I thought I would try cleaning it with Lenor and water. "I honestly cannot tell you how quickly it is to clean now. The dust must stick to the solution, and when I wipe it, it's gone instead of the dust sticking to the silicone.". "This is a game-changer for me, and I wish I had tried it ages ago. My skirting boards have been clean for over three weeks now." Flooring experts at Tapi have endorsed a unique cleaning method: "Did you know you can use fabric softener to clean skirting boards? This method not only cleans but also leaves a pleasant scent." They suggest combining one part fabric softener with four parts water in a spray bottle, then spraying it onto your skirting boards and wiping them clean with a microfibre cloth, reports the Express The professionals further explained: "The fabric softener helps to break down dirt and leaves a fresh fragrance." Members of the Mrs Hinch Cleaning Tips and Tricks Facebook group have shared their experiences using this tip. Dan Hood posted: "I use a cloth soaked in a solution of warm water and fabric softener too. It leaves a lovely fresh smell and creates a barrier for dust: they still get dusty, but not as much and not as fast." Davina Harris chimed in, saying: "I do this as well. You can use any fabric softener. The dust also stays away for longer, and it makes your house smell lovely." Lindsay Whitcher added her endorsement, commenting: "This is what I use to do all my polishing works amazing and smells good too."
