How to learn to think positively about cleaning?

In fact, it will be much easier to clean up if you change your mind about it. And to change it is easier than simple, just imagine what muscle groups you work during the harvest, and that this is a free gym!

Now let's put the jokes aside, a little theory. The first thing to understand is that the mess in the apartment promotes the multiplication of all kinds of infections and harmful bacteria. Dust that accumulates on surfaces can lead a person with allergic reactions to insanity. Clothing that is never cleaned in a closet loses its beauty faster, and furniture that is not looked after becomes dull and old prematurely.

If the salary allows you, you can order the “house cleaning” service in a company engaged in such activities, good, now there are a lot of them. If you have a child for whom you are hiring a nanny, then you can negotiate and pay extra for her, then she will do the cleaning at home.

However, not everyone has the opportunity to hire people to clean their apartment or house because incomes do not allow it. There are also people who simply do not like the presence of strangers in the apartment when the owners are not there. Then we change our view of this process - cleaning the house! We clean with pleasure.

Regular activities to create comfort and cleanliness

You don’t have to be a superhero every day to keep order. It’s enough just to be a neat person. Since childhood, parents have taught each of us to order, but now almost all of us are parents who do the same.

There are several important rules to keep in mind:

1. Everyday wear should not lie anywhere, but do not hide them far away. You need to get them easily.
2. Always wipe your feet on the mat when entering the house.
3. After you come from the street, be sure to wipe your shoes immediately. If the weather is rainy - immediately wash your shoes, dry them before putting them in place.
4. If you spilled something on the floor or furniture - wipe it at that very moment.
5. If you notice dust or dirt on the windows - do not be lazy, wipe the glass with the glass cleaner at the very moment you saw it.
6. On all surfaces you just need to hold a very well wrung out damp cloth every day.
7. Saw the trash on the floor - notice.
8. Wipe the floor with a damp cloth every day. To do this, you do not need to be constantly bent into three dooms, there are very convenient inexpensive mops that have a washing nozzle and are easily wrung out. Literally 15 minutes is enough for you.
9. Wash the bathtub and sink after yourself.
10. Toilet bowl - flush.For daily cleaning of the toilet, there have long been special blocks that are attached under its rim and, washing off each time, you wash it lightly.
11. Take out the bin without waiting for trash to be trampled in it. And wash the bucket inside every day if you don’t use special packages.
12. Wash dishes immediately after cooking and eating, without leaving the fat to dry.
13. Try not to smoke in the apartment - tar settles on the ceiling, the walls at the top with a yellow coating, which is then poorly rubbed. If there is no strength or desire to cope with this habit, set aside a separate smoking room or use a balcony for this.
