Conquer Monthly Cleaning Chores

March 11th, 2009

·                    Clean light fixtures and exposed light bulbs- use a damp cloth to wipe clean and remove dust.

·                    Dust air vents- use the vacuum to quickly remove dust and take it away.

·                    Clean walls- kitchen and bathroom walls get dirty quicker than other rooms, because of grease and hair products. Use a wet cloth and a mild cleaner to wipe down the walls.

·                    Clean window treatments- take an old sock and place it on your hand to clean blinds easier. Vacuum drapes and sheers with a vacuum attachment.

·                    Dust thoroughly- use a micro fiber cloth and a spray to pick up more dust.

·                    Vacuum inside furniture- remove sofa and chair cushions and vacuum deep down in the furniture. Maybe you’ll find some money too.

·                    Clean windows- use newspaper instead of paper towels to not leave lint behind on windows.

·                    Spot clean carpet and upholstery- use a spray upholstery and carpet cleaner to keep spots away.

·                    Check smoke and carbon monoxide detectors every month. Replace batteries if needed.

·                    Change filters- change your furnace and air filters every month. Change them on the same day every month so you don’t forget.

·                    Deep clean appliances- clean your oven, microwave, toaster or toaster oven, refrigerator coils, etc.

·                    Books and Magazines- toss or recycle magazines monthly. If you haven’t read them in a month you probably won’t. Return any borrowed books.

·                    Shower curtain/liner- wash your shower curtains monthly. Liners are so cheap, buy a few and have them on hand when you need to change them.
