Inside Your Trash Can
Many people assume that when you throw out the trash that is the end of it. However, sometimes they can miss the little things that are underneath the garbage bag. That is why when they are ready to dump the garbage; they need to make sure they look inside the trash can. Many times they can’t figure out where a particular smell is coming from or why, even after dumping the trash, it has decided to still stick around their home. It is because they have not fully cleaned out the inside of the trash can. There could be food or any number of things that are sticking to the bottom and causing the awful smell.
The Washing Machine
Much like the trash can, this falls into the category of something that people overlook because they think when they are done washing their clothes, all they need to do is put them in the dryer. After that, they assume they are good to go. In this case, sometimes things can stick to the clothing and end up in the back of the washing machine. It is why it is so important to make sure it stays clean. Sometimes it can be difficult to get really deep in there, but it is necessary to avoid having to buy a whole new washing machine, which can be really expensive.
Refrigerator
One might think this is an obvious one, but many people tend to think they don’t need to keep up with this as often as the bathroom or their bedrooms. This one can really become smelly if it is not washed regularly. They need to make sure they empty everything out and put it on the counter. The best thing to do is to clean it with baking soda and warm water. It will help make sure the fridge is looking sharp and there are no unpleasant odors that can linger and sometimes be nearly impossible to get rid of, no matter how much effort you put into it.
Shower Curtain
Last but not least, when it comes to home cleaning tips is the shower curtain. With water, it can always be dangerous if someone does not keep up with it as it leads to mold. Mold can cause the bathroom to be a really dangerous place. If you are like me and like to shower every day, be sure to replace the shower curtain often. It makes a world of difference.
