How to keep your house clean

 

Having a clean house is important for both your physical and mental health. But let’s be real cleaning is not always fun. In fact, it can be downright tedious. If you’re looking for ways to make cleaning less of a chore, you’ve come to the right place. In this blog post, we’ll share 10 tips on how to keep your house clean without driving yourself crazy in the process.

 

Making your bed

 

Assuming you would like tips for keeping your bed clean,

 

1. Strip your bed every morning. This means taking off the sheets and pillowcases and giving them a shake before putting them in the laundry hamper. Also, fluff up your pillows and smooth out your comforter or duvet.

 

2. Make sure you have clean sheets. Once a week, wash your sheets once in hot water to kill any dust mites or other allergens. If you have sensitive skin, look for detergents that are free of dyes and perfumes.

 

3. Don’t let pets sleep on your bed. Even if they’re clean, pet hair can be a trigger for allergies. Plus, it’s just gross.

 

4. Protect your mattress from spills and stains with a mattress pad or cover. These are easy to wash and will extend the life of your mattress significantly.

 

5. Vacuum your mattress regularly with the upholstery attachment on your vacuum cleaner to remove dust mites and other allergens.

Doing the dishes

 

Assuming you have a dishwasher,

 

1. Rinse your dishes after you use them. If you let food sit on your dishes, it will be harder to clean later and may start to stink.

 

2. Load your dishwasher according to the manufacturer's instructions. This will help ensure that your dishes come out clean.

 

3. Run your dishwasher when it is full. Dishwashers are most efficient when they are full, so try to wait until it is completely full before running it.

 

4. Unload your dishwasher as soon as it is done. This will prevent your dishes from getting dirty again and will also help them to dry more quickly.

 

 

Taking out the trash

 

Assuming you're referring to the literal act of taking out the trash, there are a few things you can do to make sure it's done efficiently. First, have a designated spot for your trash can. This will help cut down on time spent searching for it when it's time to take it out. Second, get in the habit of taking it out regularly. Depending on how much garbage your household produces, this could be daily, weekly, or bi-weekly. The key is to not let it build up, as that will make the task more daunting. Finally, if you have recycling, be sure to sort everything properly. This will save you time in the long run and help reduce environmental waste.

 

Sweeping and mopping

 

Sweeping and mopping are two of the most essential cleaning tasks when it comes to keeping your house clean. Here are a few tips to make sure you're doing them both effectively:

 

Start by sweeping any larger areas of your floor, such as the living room or kitchen. Be sure to get into all the corners and edges with your broom.

 

Next, focus on mopping any areas that tend to get wet, such as the bathroom or laundry room. Again, be sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.

 

-For both sweeping and mopping, make sure you're using a clean tool. A dirty broom or mop will just spread around dirt and grime rather than actually cleaning anything.

 

-Finally, don't forget to empty out the sweepings and mop water once you're finished! These can quickly become breeding grounds for bacteria if left sitting for too long.

 

Dusting

 

Assuming you would like tips for dusting,

 

Start with ceiling fans and work your way down. This will help prevent re-circulating the dust you just removed.

-Use a clean, dry microfiber cloth. This will pick up more dust than a feather duster or paper towel.

Be sure to clean hard-to-reach places like the tops of door frames, light fixtures, and baseboards. A microfiber cloth wrapped around a ruler can help with this.

-After you’ve dusted everything else in the room, vacuum the floor to pick up any lingering dust particles.

 

Decluttering

 

When it comes to decluttering, the first step is to get rid of anything you don’t need or use. This includes clothes, dishes, furniture, electronics, and anything else that’s taking up space in your home. Once you’ve decluttered, you can start cleaning your home more effectively.

 

The first step in decluttering is to get rid of anything you don't need or use. This includes clothes, dishes, furniture, electronics, and anything else that's taking up space in your home. Once you've decluttered, you can start cleaning your home more effectively.

 

Start by going through each room and getting rid of anything that you don't need or use. If you haven't worn it in 6 months, get rid of it. If you haven't used it in a year, get rid of it. If it's broken or damaged beyond repair, get rid of it.

 

Once you've gone through each room and gotten rid of the clutter, you can start cleaning more effectively. Dust all surfaces, vacuum all floors, and clean all bathrooms and kitchens. Wipe down appliances and clean out cabinets and drawers. By decluttering your home first, you'll be able to clean more efficiently and effectively.
