THINGS YOU SHOULD CLEAN WEEKLY

  • Kitchen appliances. Let’s face it, you use your kitchen appliances probably close to 100 times a day, depending on the size of your family. You’re leaving behind fingerprints, dirt, and food bits, as well as germs on everything you touch. If you cook on the stove, food may get spilled or oil and grease can build up. Wipe down and disinfect at least once a week (more if needed) all your kitchen appliances in your kitchen cleaning routine.
  • Furniture. Dust builds up — and quickly. Dust is pollen, microscopic organisms, plant material, and dander (dead skin cells shed by animals and humans) that can cause health problems such as irritation of the eyes, coughing, sneezing, and may exacerbate asthma. It’s important to remove it from your home once a week. Use a wet towelette or a multipurpose spray to remove dust (otherwise, you are mostly likely just pushing the dust around if you use another method).
  • Floors and carpets. Carpet cleaners will tell you the more you vacuum, the cleaner your carpets will stay. As you walk around with dirt on the floor, you are smashing the dirt into the carpet, discoloring it. Vacuum your entire house at least once a week; high traffic areas may need more than once a week. If Fido decides mud is his jam one day, vacuum him as well!
  • Bathroom. Due to the nature of what goes on in the bathroom, bathrooms are a place you should never neglect to clean. In fact, the toilet itself can cause a huge problem. If you leave the lid up when you flush, germy water particles can spray up to six feet across the room, hitting every surface with bacteria just waiting to find a home. The bathtub and shower should be dried once a day, but both should be scrubbed once a week to remove any possible mildew that may have started to form as well as any stains, such as hard water stains. The toilet should be scrubbed once a seek. White Glove Cleaning recommends using either bleach or a commercial toilet bowl cleaner with bleach to kill bacteria and other nasties in your toilet and keep it bright for guests who will judge you based on your toilet cleanliness and bathroom cleaning.
  • Sheets. You most likely spend at least eight hours a day in bed. Whatever is on your body gets transferred over: oils, dirt, grime, germs, makeup, and sweat. Wash your sheets once a week to prevent the spread of germs.
