Having a completely spotless and clean home is highly desired, but not always gotten. There are the obvious spots that cleaners make sure to get to, but there are sneaky spots in your home that most cleaners forget, leaving you with a still dirty home. Here are the top sneaky spots in your home most cleaners forget about:
Under the Fridge
While most cleaners leave cleaning the inside of your fridge to you, underneath it is completely their territory. However, it is often forgotten about. Usually a quick swipe in front of the fridge is all that happens when, in reality, the real mess is underneath. Dust and food debris collects underneath the fridge in the coils, which can cause your fridge to stop working properly. Be sure you or your cleaners are getting under your fridge.
Stove Grates
Cleaning the surface of the stove is a given, but the grates themselves are often overlooked. They can easily be cleaned by removing them and letting them soak in hot, soapy water for about 30 minutes. If spots are left after soaking them, a non-abrasive scrub brush will easily remove the spots.
Utensil Drawer
Remembering to clean your utensils is easy because you would run out if you didn’t. Remembering to clean the drawer they come out of is another story. It’s important to clean out the drawer because dust and small food crumbs can get inside the drawer, causing an unclean environment for recently cleaned utensils.
Trash Can
The exterior of your trash can often gets spills so it’s natural to wash the outside, but the inside needs cleaning as well. We often forget that despite having a trash bag hanging in the trash can, food and other gunk can slip past the bag and stick to the inside of the can.
Toothbrush Holders
You do not want to think about what sort of germs can collect inside your toothbrush holders, so it’s best to clean them on a regular basis and not have to worry about them.
Ice Maker Bucket
Ice is a great thing, especially in the summer when it’s hot, but the ice maker bucket is no exception to cleaning. Sitting in the freezer with food that can chip, your ice maker bucket is home to collecting chipped food and dust from opening and closing the freezer door. Then you are taking and drinking ice from that bucket. Don’t ingest food and dirt through ice. Clean your ice maker bucket.
