5 of The Dirtiest Things In Your House

You need a clean dwelling to keep your home and its inhabitants happy and healthy. However, there are items that we often forget about. These forgotten areas are either hard to reach or take a long time to even appear dirty. Others can only be cleaned seasonally. Here are prime examples about the chores we frequently forget about.

Carpets

Dark carpets are especially hard to see dirt on until there is a large amount of it. Dirt settles at the base of the carpet where it is hidden from view and goes beyond our notice.

Windows

Windows often get overlooked because the dirt build sup gradually and we don't look outside the windows every day. In addition you can only properly clean the window during the summer.

Under The Bed

It's usually hard to clean underneath the beds. Often the bed frame doesn't allow for convenient cleaning  and we end up skipping this chore. As a result there is a lot of dust, hair and fiber build up.

Cobwebs

Cobwebs can occur anywhere in the house but the stairways and windows are the popular spot for them. Often the spider has left and there is just the dead bugs and spider web to clean up.

Air Vents

Dust builds up gradually from a variety of different sources. It will settle on all the furniture and appliances. The main source is from the air vents and you will require ducts cleaning to eliminate thsi issue.

Pets, Your Carpet and the Mating Season

Mating seasons come and go for your pet. However, during this period of time they may cause damages to your carpet. They are just doing what they are biologically intended to do in the wild. This will mean you need to adequately clean up the pet urine.

The main issue with pet pee from dogs and cats is that it contains foul smelling hormones. This is thankfully only during mating season. One option is getting your pet spayed and neutered. Some of us don't have the luxury of this option so the next best idea is proper cleaning.

It's highly recommended that you use a professional carpet cleaning service. They will have the equipment and carpet solutions to remove the pet urine and help deodorize the carpet. However, keep in mind that there is a problem with removing female cat pee.

The smell cannot be removed completely and often requires harsh carpet chemicals. These chemicals may damage the carpet and not remove the smell completely even after that. Ammonia is often used but it is one of the worst chemicals to use for carpet. Ammonia is not eco-friendly nor does it smell friendly.
