A lot of homeowners often overlook certain areas in the house even with regular cleaning. This is why most professional cleaners have a cleaning list to make sure that they do not fail to clean the following:

The Ceiling

A lot of homeowners focus on the floor when it comes to cleaning. But as soon as they look up, they will see that they actually forgot to get rid of the cobwebs along the edge of the wall. Cleaning this area is very easy, you can simply use a dusting tool with a long handle to clean the edges of the ceiling at least once a month.

The Baseboard

The baseboards can also accumulate a lot of dust over time. You can get rid of the dust by wiping this area as well as the trim using a damp rag or furniture polish.

Doorknobs and Handles

A lot of homeowners love to clean countertops but fail to wipe down doorknobs and handles. You need to keep in mind that a lot of hands touch these fixtures on a daily basis, this is why it can easily harbor bacteria and viruses.

The Telephone

The telephone is also another item in the house that often lacks proper cleaning attention. Homeowners need to know that the handset will not only come in contact with different hands, but it can also come into contact with the user’s saliva. This is why it has to be cleaned on a regular basis.

Cleaning doorknobs, handles, and telephones can be done with the help of an antibacterial wipe. You can also use household cleaners to wipe them down and to make sure that these are properly decontaminated in a weekly basis.

Before using a cleaning product that you are not familiar with, you need to read the labels and understand what it can be used for so you can use it properly, and so you can avoid damaging the different parts of your home. Knowing what to use for the different parts of the house can also help you save time and money. You should also know that some products can harm children or pets especially when used aggressively.
