1. Closet floors

You open the door of your closet, and you see the mess that is inside. This is something that is not hard to spot. It is probably time to clean your closet.

Many clothes are stacked together, and if you look up, you can see the shelves that are full of various objects that almost fall once you open the door.

Now, try to remember when the last time you cleaned the closet was. You put everything in place, right? But did you actually clean the closet properly? Have you ever cleaned its floor?

We don’t say that you’ve never cleaned the floor, but most people forget about it, and this is not a good habit. It is easy to say that the floor of your closet is one of the places you forget to clean, but this has to change.

Shoes may carry dirt from outdoors into closets, which can make carpeted areas particularly dusty and dirty. Carpet beetles and other bugs can form colonies in the carpet, and they might later feed on your most prized garments.

Remove all items from closets and thoroughly disinfect the area. This should be done at least once per season. Additionally, this is a great opportunity to sort through your belongings, give whatever you don’t truly need, and store everything else properly.

  1. There is a 7th place you didn’t mention:
    People who has 65 inches plasma/flat screen TV hooked up in the wall.
    Nobody never knew how much dust stick to the back of that TV because nobody ever go up and look….
    Or they can’t.

  2. If you have ever been in the military and did boot camp you learn to clean everything, including the inside of the top of a tube of toothpaste. I know. My area was always ready for a white glove inspection. I even washed my shoe strings.

  3. I may not always clean those places, but its not that I forgot. Those are more spring cleaning jobs I forget about the front of the toilet bowl to the floor. Under the kitchen sink and the garbage disposal. The upstairs guest bathroom that isnt used often. Hairbrushes and curling irons. Clean hair out of drains. (First time I did that in my new house, I thought it was a mouse! Dogs paws especially if winter and walks are salted. Window sills between window and screens. Inside of enclosed gas fireplace. (Was recommended every 4 yrs by company) I used to laugh at my Mom when I saw cobb webs hanging in the corner of the ceiling. Now that Im 72, its not so funny anymore. So much work, but so nice those 10 minutes a year its all done.
