Top 5 Most Overlooked Areas When Cleaning Your Home

These are the top 5 Most overlooked areas that you probably miss every time you clean.....

Tub Cleaning

  1. Baseboards
    Baseboards collect dust and grime easily, but they’re often forgotten. A quick wipe down every few weeks can keep them looking fresh.

  1. Window Tracks
    Dirt, dust, and even bugs can accumulate in window tracks, making them a breeding ground for mold. Clean them out with a brush or vacuum to avoid build-up.

    1. Behind the Toilet
      This area is often ignored, but it’s a hidden haven for dust, hair, and other debris. Moisture from showers or toilet use can lead to mold or mildew growth if not addressed. A quick scrub with a long-handled mop or a wipe down with disinfectant will keep this spot clean and sanitary.

  1. Doors & Door Handles
    Doors, especially around the edges and handles, can become grimy due to frequent handling. Fingerprints, smudges, and bacteria accumulate over time. Wiping down your doors, especially those leading to bathrooms and kitchens, with a mild cleaner or disinfectant can keep them looking spotless and help reduce the spread of germs.

  1. Ceiling Fans
    Out of sight, out of mind—until you turn them on! Dust settles on the blades of ceiling fans and can be circulated throughout the room when in use. Use a duster or a microfiber cloth to regularly wipe the blades, and don’t forget the fan base and any light fixtures attached.
