SORRY to pop your bubble but you haven’t been as thorough in your cleaning as you thought.
An expert has revealed the three most commonly missed spots when cleaning your home.
In a video shared on social media, cleaning expert @mama_mila_au shared three commonly missed spots when cleaning the house.
Light switches are very frequently touched surfaces in your home, especially in common areas like kitchens and living rooms.
Think of how often you hit the light switch when entering your house after being at the gym, the mall, or any public place.
You’re easily transferring the germs from your hand to the switch, and allowing them to build up over time.
The expert recommended wiping your light switches weekly using antibacterial spray and a cloth.
Dishwasher filters are easily forgotten about as they’re tucked into the bottom of your machine.
Leftover food from your dishes will easily build up in the filter, causing smelly, murky water and overall unsanitary conditions.
Here are some tips to help you when you clean your home next:
The expert suggested taking out the filter monthly and cleaning it out in the sink.
“Watch your dishes shine after it’s done,” she said.
Household ingredients like baking soda and vinegar can also be used to clean tough areas.
She recommended putting one cup of baking soda along with some vinegar down your drain to help deodorize it.
Pour boiling hot water on top of the mixture to loosen any clogs and remove it from your pipes.
