Correct the mistakes made when cleaning the apartment

Cleaning an apartment for women is often the least favorite thing to do. Indeed, you rub and clean the apartment, but there is no sense. Do you think the child who came from the street is to blame? Or a husband who needed to find something? Of course, they are capable of destroying the fruits of many hours of persistent cleaning in a couple of minutes. But the matter is not only in them! And also in the fact that a woman makes cleaning mistakes year after year, often without even realizing them. Try to keep mistakes in the past! You will notice that keeping the house clean and tidy will be much easier.

Mistakes in the organization of cleaning

There are a lot of different shortcomings, but all of them can be divided into several groups.

Wrong planning

The most common miscalculation of many women is the idea that cleaning up on weekends is much easier than every day.

Do not leave cleaning for one day

It seems so only during the working week. And on Saturday morning you realize that you want to do something more enjoyable than cleaning. But there’s nowhere to put off, you have to spoil the weekend, choosing a mop and a broom instead of rest.

How to avoid a similar situation? Get out a little bit every day.

Reference! Experienced housewives have allotted 10-15 minutes a day for dusting, washing stoves, plumbing, floors or arranging things in their places.

By the way, the last action can be easily transferred to those living nearby. Well, that is, it’s not very easy, but gradually the whole family will learn to put their things back to where they were taken from.

Lack of work system

Does cleaning "eat up" a lot of time? Of course, if it runs haphazardly.

Most effective two cleaning systems:

• Top down. First, all upper surfaces are cleaned: cabinets, curtains, lamps. And then the lower ones: tables, tables and tables, armchairs and chairs. And only after that gender.
• The movement in a circle. The room is put in order clockwise (or counterclockwise). A good solution is to first remove all the main rubbish, and then proceed to the methodical cleaning of surfaces. From the very first minutes, this will provide a result and give an incentive to work.

Advice! If you still do not have the patience to follow the plan exactly, you can try to start cleaning every time from a new place. So within a month will be able to cope with the cleaning of the entire apartment.

Incorrect work

Do not neglect other people's experience. The advice of experienced housewives will help you do the work without redoing it.

• No matter how hard a woman tries to carefully collect dust on the surfaces, she will fly from the upper tier to the lower. So that First, order should be put on the cabinets, then on the cabinets, and leave the floor “curtained”.
• Many cleaning products take time to get started. therefore cleaning begins with the application of all necessary preparations (for example, on a stove, plumbing). As long as they come, let's say, in full combat readiness, part of the apartment will already shine. And then it will not be necessary to wipe off the stains with force. Enough, as the advertisement says, "just hold a rag on the surface."
• Clean up according to the SHS rule (dry - wet - dry). First you need to do dry cleaning of all high surfaces. Then, if necessary, wipe them with a damp cloth and mop the floor. And in the end, once again walk over all wet surfaces with a dry rag. In this way, unpleasant stains on surfaces and traces of wet feet on a cleanly washed floor can be avoided.

Errors in choosing tools and cleaning products

Another factor making work difficult is the wrong choice of cleaning products and tools.

Advice! Household chemicals will help clean up if you follow the instructions for specific formulations exactly. Read recommendations before starting work, and not after receiving a negative result.

Otherwise, instead of well-kept furniture and a clean floor, you run the risk of getting a problem in the form of cracked or dirty surfaces.

• Do not mix multiple chemicals at the same time. And the abuse of chemistry will also not bring tangible results, except for a sudden allergy.

Advice! Instead of household chemicals, you can use good and completely safe folk remedies: hydrogen peroxide, soda in combination with vinegar or lemon.

• Tools play an important role in maintaining good cleanliness. Feel free to discard all old ragged rags. Instead, get cute sponges, brushes, wipes, scoops and mops. You will soon notice that it is more pleasant to carry out routine work with them!
• Do not forget about gloves and other protective equipment.

Common Mistakes

Here are a few more things to discard.

• Doing work hastily, superficially. In this case, the dust simply swept into hard to reach places. From there it will still have to be swept out, but it will be more difficult to do this.
• Window washing on a sunny day. In such weather, water quickly evaporates from the glass, and you have to repeat everything again.
• Cleaning in splendid isolation. Try to involve your household in the process.
• Work in complete silence. Rhythmic music will help to cope with depression from the form of garbage. But it will allow you to complete the cleaning in the rhythm of a waltz or clockwork salsa.
• Untimely replacement of the garbage bag in a vacuum cleaner. A crowded vacuum cleaner will be forced to clean again, and it will have to be done earlier than you expected.
• Irregular cleaning of home textiles. Do not turn bedding, carpets, bedspreads and rugs into a dust storage. It will not be difficult for her to move from there to all corners of the room.

Found your mistakes? It is not difficult to fix them, and after that it will be easier to clean up!
