The couple (@peterjlouden) has garnered 3,500 followers on TikTok, despite having posted just one video.
In the clip, the woman’s husband is seen bending down to pick up the corners of a plastic sheet that he had placed on the steps before the snow fell.
“Let’s see if this works,” she says.
Her husband effortlessly drags the plastic sheet away in one swift motion, leaving their steps without a trace of snow.
He bows happily after proving that his hack for clearing the snow in the easiest way possible worked.
“That’s awesome,” she says in surprise.
“Wow… my husband is not a moron.”
The video went viral with 3.9 million views, almost 490,000 likes, and thousands of people saving it to rewatch.
Many viewers took to the comment section praising the woman’s husband and suggesting that bricks could help the plastic stay in place during windy weather.
“Real men of genius… today we salute you, Mr. Snow Tarp Stairs guy,” one person wrote.
“Great example of work smarter, not harder,” another said.
“I will be doing this before the next blizzard strikes,” a third commented.
“You win winter,” a fourth added.
“I have something like this for my windshield and I do the same thing. I never have to clean off my windshield after a storm,” another chimed in.
Amazon’s Hiraliy store sells heavy-duty waterproof tarps for $26, depending on the size.
It has a 4.4-star rating from happy customers and many reviews gushing about how it can be used to keep things dry.
The “genius” hack comes after another homeowner shared an idea for clearing snow.

Detria (@detriarochelle) confessed that she can be “lazy” as she demonstrated using Litheli’s cordless leaf blower to remove snow from her walkway in less than 10 minutes.
“I figure if somebody’s willing to bring me a delivery in a snowstorm, the least I can do is make sure that they can safely deliver it on my property,” she said.
She earned herself a bottle of wine by also removing the snow from her neighbor’s yard.
“It took me all of eight minutes to remove all of that snow,” she said.
“I’m telling you, use your leaf blower if you want a fast removal job.
“I got everything salted and it lasted the whole snowstorm.”
