When washing floors or dusting, lots of people avoid hard-to-reach places under the furniture, even if they don't admit it.
Meanwhile, you still have to clean there, and the frequency depends on multiple things.
Let's find out more about them.
Weekly Dusting
To maintain a consistently clean home, aim to dust under your furniture once a week.
Use a microfiber cloth, a duster, or a vacuum cleaner with a nozzle attachment to remove loose dust and debris.
This quick weekly dusting can help prevent dust from accumulating.
Monthly Deep Cleaning
Once a month, conduct a more thorough cleaning under your furniture. Move the furniture aside to access all areas.
Wipe down surfaces with a damp cloth or a cleaning solution suitable for your flooring.
Pay attention to baseboards, corners, and any nooks where dust tends to hide.
Seasonal Deep Cleaning
At the start of each season, consider doing a deep cleaning under your furniture.
Seasonal cleaning is an excellent opportunity to declutter and thoroughly clean the areas that are often overlooked.
Pet Owners
If you have pets, especially those that shed, like cats or dogs, you should clean under your furniture more often.
Pet hair can accumulate quickly, so a weekly deep cleaning may be necessary.
Allergies and Health Concerns
Individuals with allergies or respiratory issues may want to clean under their furniture more frequently, perhaps twice a week, to maintain good indoor air quality.
Special Occasions
When hosting guests or special events at your home, give the areas under your furniture a thorough cleaning before the event.
This ensures that your home looks its best.
Rotate Furniture
Consider rearranging your furniture or rotating it from time to time.
This not only gives your home a fresh look but also allows you to clean under furniture that doesn't get moved often.
