What cleaning blunders should I stay away from? 

I’m about to drop some knowledge bombs on you, so listen up, people. Mistakes in cleaning are like the boogeyman of housekeeping. But let’s face it, nobody is perfect, and we all occasionally make mistakes. That’s just the way the game is played. 

You must stay away from specific pitfalls, though, if you want to clean your apartment like a boss. So, what’s the deal, what should you avoid if you want to shine like a diamond? Well, I’m glad you asked. 

Here’s a list of cleaning mistakes to avoid making. Trust me, a little bit of planning will go a long way toward making your home look like it came out of a magazine. So let’s settle back, unwind, and get ready to crush this cleaning job! 

 1: Not utilizing protection. 

The topic of protection, the proverbial “elephant in the room,” needs to be discussed, ladies and gentlemen. Being careful and savvy are the only rules when cleaning.

Now, if you’ve ever played spy and watched your housekeepers, you might have noticed that they have more equipment than a NASA astronaut. That’s because they are aware of the fact that it’s best to always exercise caution when it comes to safeguarding your health and keeping your house in good condition. 

 First things first, get yourself a face mask and a pair of rubber gloves. That’s a good place to start. However, my friends, don’t end there. Because we all know how cleaning can sometimes get a little splashy, include eye protection. And then you’re all set to handle this cleaning job like a pro! 

2. The Scandal of Reusing Cleaning Equipment 

Using the same cleaning supplies on every surface is like trying to remove a grease stain with a greasy rag – it’s ineffective and leaves you wondering what you were thinking when you started! 

Don’t be a one-trick pony when it comes to cleaning. Purchase a set of tools specifically designed for each area of your home. Yes, the initial cost might be a little higher, but consider all the time and effort you’ll save in the long run. That’s a win-win, people, and let’s not forget the added benefit of a spotless home! 

Tip: you need to have a basic set of 8+ must-have housekeeping tools and products to make your house sparkle.

 3: Starting with the Ground Up. 

 It’s time to discuss the biggest blunder in the history of house cleaning, ladies and gentlemen. And let me tell you, this one is a doozy. It makes sense in theory when starting from scratch. However, in practice it is similar to going in circles. As you can see, the dirt and dust that came from higher up will simply fall to the ground again. What results is a home that needs cleaning and a lot of time wasted. 

So, what is the answer? It is straightforward, people. Aim high and fall low. That’s the key. No more running around in circles, just a neat and clean home, and you’re ready to clean like a boss. Easy as pie! 

4. Spend Money Wisely on Cleaning Experts. 

Contrary to popular belief, employing cleaning specialists is not a lavish extravagance. In our fast-paced, hectic world, it is an absolute necessity. Because of our hectic schedules and fast-paced lifestyles, we hardly ever have any time to ourselves. 

Your time, energy, and mental peace will all be saved by a reliable cleaning service, like a shining knight. You can free yourself up to take that all-day trip to the Columbia River that you’ve been dreaming about by regularly hiring a professional to handle your housekeeping, taking the burden off your worn-out shoulders. Don’t try to be a hero by cleaning everything yourself; instead, give the job to the pros and enjoy having a spotless house. 

Tip: allocate time correctly so that there is time for rest. It is recommended that you make a daily cleaning schedule every day: it is better to clean a little every day than spend the whole day cleaning. So you work will be more efficient and you will not be so tired.
