The Forgotten Spots: 10 Areas in Your Home You're Forgetting to Clean
•Checkers Team
You clean the counters and floors, but what about the hidden spots where dirt and germs accumulate? We reveal the top 10 commonly missed areas in most homes.
A truly clean home goes beyond the obvious surfaces. It's the attention to detail that makes the difference. Are you missing these commonly overlooked spots? Here's a list to add to your routine.
Check Your List Against Ours:
- Light Switches & Door Knobs: These are touched daily but rarely cleaned. Disinfect them weekly.
- Baseboards & Trim: They collect dust and scuffs. A quick wipe-down makes a huge difference.
- Tops of Cabinets & Refrigerator: These high surfaces are magnets for greasy dust.
- Inside Your Trash Cans: Even with liners, trash cans get grimy. Wash them out regularly.
- Underneath Furniture & Rugs: Don't just clean around them; move them!
- Remote Controls & Keyboards: These high-touch electronics are often dirtier than a toilet seat.
- Washing Machine: Run a cleaning cycle with vinegar or a specialized cleaner to prevent mildew.
- Dishwasher Filter: Clean it out to prevent odors and improve performance.
- Ceiling Fan Blades: Dust them before they start flinging dust around the room.
- The Range Hood Filter: A greasy filter is a fire hazard and reduces effectiveness.
