Home Hacks: Useful Tips for Clean Rooms

Tip 1: Ventilate the room

This unexpected method of cleaning is known only to a few – but it is very important! So be sure to take a few minutes to ventilate the room well. Stagnant air strongly indicates a lack of cleaning, while fresh air, on the contrary, creates the impression of a clean space, even if the cleaning was only cosmetic.

Tip 2: Remove all unnecessary items from open surfaces

Tables, hanging shelves, bedside tables and window sills should always be as empty as possible – this is the main rule of a clean home. It is the presence of unnecessary things in these areas that reveals you as a major aficionado of cleaning. But what to do if you can’t throw away every little thing that’s pleasing to the eye? Store it not on open surfaces, but on closed ones – for example, a shelf behind glass in a closet is perfect.

Tip 3: Have a special box for small items
FFor quick or daily cleaning, you only need one drawer. It is useful for quickly hiding all the little things there, then putting it back in place calmly. The main thing is not to forget to disassemble it regularly (for example, once a week) – otherwise, after a while, it will fill up and stop working as expected.

Tip 4: Spend at least 15 minutes cleaning every day
The main rule of always having a clean home is cleaning on a schedule. To do this, you don’t have to spend several hours of free time every day – believe me, your house will become much cleaner if you devote 5-15 minutes daily to cosmetic cleaning. For example, in the evening before bed!

The principle of daily cleaning, also called “15 minutes, but every day,” has become widely and deservedly widespread in the world. Its advantages are obvious – no matter the level of fatigue, upon returning home you will perform a few simple routine procedures to restore order.

Let us emphasize that we are not talking about general, extensive cleaning. This is a really big, labor-intensive undertaking that requires effort. And sweeping away dust with a rag, vacuuming one of the rooms, wiping the dining table are quite feasible tasks. In terms of time, you will spend “those” 15-20 minutes. Bonus: your Saturday and especially Sunday morning is no longer overshadowed by the topic of the upcoming big cleaning.
