In every house and apartment there are places that are hidden from the human eye, and therefore not everyone looks there even during a general cleaning.

The dust that accumulates there over time causes unpleasant odors and may even cause health problems.

Where else do you need to clean at least once a month?

1. Cabinets and cupboards

The top drawers of the kitchen unit store dust for months, which also becomes covered with soot. It is no longer possible to wash this mass with just a damp cloth. Therefore, you need to look here more often. The same applies to cabinets and household appliances.

2. Two-level ceiling

There can be a whole bunch of dust here, despite the fact that the tier and decorative panel are located right under the ceiling.

3. Extractor hood

Not the one that turns on during cooking, but a ventilation hole hidden by a decorative grille. There are some in the kitchen and bathroom. A whole sea of dust and dirt settles on the grille and the metal mesh.

4. Air conditioning

These household appliances need regular cleaning and wiping because they then have to breathe in everything that has passed through the filter.

5. Heating devices

Here, between the ribs, whole balls of dust collect. It is possible that housewives see this dirt, but put off cleaning it for later.

6. Switches and fittings

Switches and handles on doors and other furniture also become covered in dust. In addition, bacteria accumulate on them, especially if it is a door to a bathroom.

7. Shower head

Limescale can be removed with regular vinegar. If you don't do this periodically, you'll have to buy a new one over time.
