The entire population is divided into two types: people who clean once a week, usually on weekends, and people who clean their apartment every day in parts.

Whatever the established habit, many people forget about the same items. The main problem is that these items accumulate a lot of dangerous bacteria over time.

What they forget to clean

When cleaning, do not forget about the following surfaces and household items: it is important to clean them with a detergent or disinfectant.

1. Refrigerator door handle

The refrigerator is opened many times a day, and each time the door handle is touched. Sometimes this is done with hands contaminated with food products, which further increases the accumulation of dirt and is a breeding ground for pathogens.

2. Toothbrush holder

It's not enough to clean the shelf in the bathroom; you should also take a look at the things lying on it. The toothbrush holder is one of the dirtiest things in the house. It can be full of bacteria and even mold.

3. Door handles

The front door handle is the first thing a person touches when they come home, so a lot of dirt accumulates on it. The door handles inside the house are also often touched by apartment residents, so they also contain a lot of pathogens. It is important to disinfect doors and handles from time to time.

4. Comb

It gets dirty with oil, dirt and skin cells from everyday use, but most people don't clean their comb very often. However, if you never do, your comb will stain even your clean hair.

5. Washing machine

The laundry comes out of the washing machine clean. However, all the dirt from the laundry gets into the machine and can stick to its internal parts. It is important to keep the inside of the appliance clean and dry after each wash. Before the warning unpleasant smell appears, it is worth washing the machine from time to time with a cleaning agent for washing machines.
