Every housewife strives for perfect cleanliness in the house. Order in each room gives a feeling of coziness and comfort.

However, some women make mistakes that can lead to various problems. Let's consider those moments that should be avoided.

Choosing the wrong detergent

The right cleaning agent is the most important aspect of cleaning. Some products contain aggressive components that damage surfaces and cause allergic reactions. Carefully read the composition of the product and clarify its purpose, so as not to make a mistake.

No microfiber

This is a universal material that can be used to easily clean. You will quickly clean surfaces from dust and dirt. Many housewives ignore the use of microfiber, but this is wrong. Be sure to wash the cloth after each use to avoid streaks on surfaces.

Not removing dust before washing floors

The results of such work are unlikely to pleasantly surprise you. Dust accumulates on the floor surface, so after washing it, dirty marks will remain. It is very difficult to deal with them. Before carrying out the procedure, remove the debris using a vacuum cleaner or microfiber, and only then proceed to wet cleaning.

Irregular carpet cleaning

Remember that carpet pile attracts a huge amount of dust and dirt. That is why it is necessary to clean the products regularly. If you ignore this point, you can face various diseases and allergic reactions. To clean the pile, you can contact a dry cleaner or vacuum the carpet.

You don't remove stains right away

Some housewives do not remove stains immediately after they appear. But this is wrong, since the dirt is absorbed into the surface, so it will be very difficult to remove it later. Wipe the stains immediately, using special detergents in practice.

Lack of fresh air in the premises

Cleaning should be as effective as possible, so be sure to ventilate the premises. Refresh the air regularly, as this will help get rid of unpleasant odors. It is enough to open the windows and doors for a couple of minutes so that oxygen fills your lungs and improves your overall well-being.

Lack of cleaning of ceilings and walls

Remember that even the ceiling and wall surfaces need to be cleaned. A large amount of dust accumulates there. To deal with it, it is enough to arm yourself with a microfiber or a vacuum cleaner.

You don't wipe down the furniture.

Furniture is another magnet for dust. That is why it is important to clean the items regularly. Do not ignore places like dressers and shelves, as well as upper surfaces, as this will help to avoid allergic reactions.

You ignore hard to reach places

Clean hard-to-reach places regularly. Pay attention to the gaps between the wall surface and furniture. Also clean the space under the sofa and bed, ventilation holes. To make cleaning effective, use a vacuum cleaner or a brush.

You don't clean your shoes

Shoes are one of the main sources of dirt in your home. Be sure to put a special mat in front of the front door. You will clean your shoes on it when returning home from a walk.
