The Best Practices for Housekeeping and Keeping a Clean Smelling House
Have you ever had unexpected guests come over before you had a chance to clean the house?
This blog post is about some things you can do to keep the house smelling good and up to good housekeeping standards.
Let's start with 5 quick tips on how to keep the house clean.
Tip #1 Start by making the bed
Making the bed every morning is a great way to prepare for an effective and organized day. You wouldn't believe how important it is to your day for you to have your linen in order at the top of the day! At the very least it's a reminder that the day is moving forward. Maybe you will make it up so pretty that you refuse to lay back down until your tired from a great days work.
Tip # 2 Do a 15 minute night clean up
Night time cleaning is very important. The best time to night clean is after the home have settled down a bit. Besides just making for a good tomorrow by waking up to a clean house, night time cleaning can definitely keep the bugs and insects down.
Tip # 3 Keep basic cleaning supplies close to the area you use them
This tip means that location is important to cleaning. Whenever you can, keep bathroom cleaners and cleaning aids in or near the bathroom. This is also important to limit contamination. You don't want to reuse a bathroom brush for the kitchen.
Tip # 4 Never leave a room empty handed
Always find something to carry out of a room or pick something off the floor. If you make a habit of never leaving a room in the house the way you found it, your home will be up to best housekeeping standards before you know it!
Tip # 5 Know your high traffic areas
High traffic areas need special consideration. They are visited frequently so they are the most prone to messes and bacteria. Some common traffic areas will be the front doorway, the bathroom, and the kitchen. You want to pay special attention to cleaning the floors of these areas. HERE is my favorite disinfectant!
Now let's move on to my recommendations to keeping the home smelling good
