While a real Christmas tree can bring festive cheer into your home, it can leave quite a mess in the days following December 25.The spruce is known for shedding its needles throughout the holiday, and while your first instinct may be to reach for the hoover, there's a far easier method that won't jam up your appliance.The needles can become stuck in the hose, bag and filters and even block the mechanisms.

But rather than spending time picking up the mess by hand, a cleaning expert has shared one of the easiest ways to clean them up is with bicarbonate of soda.Speaking to The Mirror, Emily Barron, a cleaning specialist at Rezigo, said that sprinkling the floor under the tree with the ingredient to cover the pine needles will make them easier to pick up.Finally, use a lint roller over the affected area to pick up the pesky pins in minutes.

If you don't own the clothes cleaning device, you can achieve the same with a household broom.Once collected, the pine needles should then be thrown away in the garden bin, and the remaining baking soda can then be vacuumed up, leaving your floors clean once again.

Sodium bicarbonate is a common ingredient in cooking and it can be bought from Tesco for just 59p - matching the price found at Aldi.Emily also said it's essential to keep your Christmas tree watered to prevent excessive needle dropping.
