Before you clean your place, make sure you review this list! You might be making your home DIRTIER than it was when you started.
- Going crazy with cleaning products. If you use too much of your cleaning products, you won’t make your floors or counters or table cleaner . . . you’ll leave a residue that can trap in extra dirt and dust.
- Dusting at the end. When your last step of cleaning a room is dusting, you just spread that dust around . . . which makes the room dirty again. The best move is to clean a room from top to bottom, ending with the floors . . . so dusting’s in the middle.
- Cleaning with a used sponge or rag. When you use your dish sponge or a used rag to wipe down surfaces, you’re just spreading germs onto those surfaces.
- Overloading your dishwasher. When you put too many dishes in the dishwasher, it can’t clean all of them properly . . . so your dishes won’t get as clean as you’d like.
