Many people habitually call carpets dust collectors. Although this thing is functional and useful.

Meanwhile, there are several things in the house that accumulate dust, dirt and bacteria no worse than carpets, and no one is in a hurry to wash them. Either the housewives forget, or they don’t know.

We'll tell you what things you absolutely need to throw into the machine in the near future.

Soft toys

Many children not only sleep with such toys, but also take them with them to kindergarten or to school in elementary grades. Even if the toy simply serves as a decorative item, not everything is fine with it.

Only on the surface the material remains clean, but inside the toys dust can accumulate, which can cause allergies and other problems.

It is recommended to wash once a month.

Blankets

Decent housewives change bed linen at least once a week. But you also need to think about the blanket.

It is important to remember that a duvet cover is not the most reliable protection against bacteria that feel comfortable in the material.

It is recommended to wash once every six months.

Blankets and bedspreads

The situation is similar to a blanket, but given that the textile comes into contact with outerwear, washing should be planned more often, that is, approximately once every 2-4 weeks.

Animal bedding

Often these appear in houses where dogs live. Wash at least once a week, and during the shedding period it will not be superfluous to clean once every 3-4 days.

Slippers

House slippers can become a home for bacteria, fungus and other pathogens. To prevent anything bad from happening, wash your house shoes once a month.
