Even though you may be a cleaning perfectionist and an organization expert, mistakes can still happen.
Today we will tell you about things that can turn you from an ideal housewife into a slob in a split second. As they say, forewarned is forearmed.
Old home clothes
When we go through our closets, things with stains, holes, and snags often end up in the "go to" category, which is wrong, because even at home we should look neat.
To do this, you need to take care of your home clothes and buy special clothes for home. In order not to stain things during cleaning, it is better to wear old clothes intended specifically for this.
Dirty upholstered furniture
Often, when choosing upholstered furniture, people opt for more comfortable sofas and armchairs with textile upholstery, despite the fact that they are more difficult to care for. A damp cloth will not help here, and if a gray sofa suddenly turns brown, then it is time to clean it with a washing vacuum cleaner.
If you do not have a vacuum cleaner or do not want to clean the furniture yourself, you can contact a professional cleaner. Clean furniture is important not only for appearance, but also for health, as it prevents the appearance of bacteria and insects.
Chandeliers and sconces
Lighting fixtures such as lampshades, floor lamps and sconces can be a source of problems as dust can remain unnoticed for a long time and then suddenly fall on guests or family members when they are not expecting it.
Although such items are rarely cleaned during cleaning, a good housewife should take care of them. It is necessary to wipe down the lighting fixtures at least once a month to avoid unpleasant surprises.
Streaks and deposits in the shower
The bathroom is the most difficult place to clean after the kitchen, especially if it has a shower stall. Stains, limescale and water stains can quickly ruin the appearance of the bathroom.
To avoid this, stains need to be removed immediately after they appear. To do this, you can use special anti-scale products and a scraper to remove water from surfaces after a shower.
Overflowing refrigerator
Sometimes we can become overly thrifty and fill the fridge with food, thinking that this will help us save time and money. However, this behavior has its drawbacks. Firstly, it is difficult to keep track of the expiration dates of products, and they can spoil faster. Secondly, improper storage of products can lead to their spoilage and cause health problems.
In addition, an overloaded refrigerator may not work as well and may not maintain the desired temperature. Therefore, it is better to buy products as needed and monitor their freshness.
