It's not easy to maintain a tidy home when you spend more than forty hours a week away from it, especially if you also have a family, a pet, and a life of your own.
Yet with few easy methods, you may win your chore list and finally enjoy a spotless home. The first step is to establish a regular routine and a weekly schedule for housework. Cleaning your house properly entails both daily habits and weekly duties; the former are the smaller, more often jobs, while the latter are the larger, more infrequent ones.
When you leave for the day, wash and dry some clothes to have waiting for you when you get home. Enjoy your favorite Netflix show while you fold laundry.
Always have some biodegradable wipes on hand to clean up the bathroom with.
Immediately start washing the dishes or loading the dishwasher.
Clean up before you turn in. Do a quick 10-minute clean-up before turning in for the night. Kitchen counter tops need wiping off, and books, DVDs, and towels need to be put away and hung up.
If something can be done in less than two minutes, do it right now. Do the dishes. Throw the recyclables away. Clean as you go, always. Including tidying up time like this into your routine is a breeze. Don't just throw your clothing on the floor, pick them up. Clean the kitchen counters as soon as you see them get dirty. While waiting for the water to boil, please put away the clean dishes.
The dirt on your bathroom floor may be easily collected with a dustpan and a broom by using a hairdryer to blast it into a corner of the room. A simple routine for daily floor maintenance.
To at least make your bathroom smell fresh after you shower, try putting a few drops of peppermint or eucalyptus oil in the water.
