Ten places that may be harbouring that dirt in your House

Author: Adrian Gherasim

Did you know that germs often can lurk in the most unsuspecting places? For instance, in a clean bathroom did you know families may forget to clean the toothbrush holder regularly? It is a health hazard because it allows you to place these germs directly into your mouth and these germs can be carried to the bloodstream. This is why soaking a toothbrush in Alka Seltzer may protect your toothbrush and your health.

What about that daily companion that you feel lost without - your cell phone? Those buttons you touch every day have hundreds of germs on them. However, a quick wipe with a cloth that does not contain alcohol is a great way to clean your phone and keep from transferring cold germs to others.

What other places are hideouts for Germ

  • Under the curtains - if you do not clean curtains once in a while, dirt gets trapped between the curtain and the floor. Those who have asthma may worse their condition by not removing the dirt and dust from time to time.
  • Around the toilet and under the fridge - areas under big appliances that are harder to clean may not get moved as much because it may take so doing to clean under a fridge. Does your cleaning wand reach all the way behind the toilet, if not; you may leave that area with a place for germs to hang out and multiple in a warm, moist environment.
  • In Window Tracks - germs can hide anywhere where you do not clean well.
  • The toilet handle - it often gets overlooked, but may be one of the grimiest places in a house that needs cleaning.
  • Check the closet - did you know that closets may be one of the least vacuumed areas in a house or rental. This is why everyone needs to at least remove items and vacuum at least once a year, perhaps twice. This will get rid of dust bunnies that want to hang around.
  • Wipe down the remote - It is one of the most used luxuries in a home these days. This is why wipes used for electronics may also be best to clean your TV remote.
  • Door knobs - they often remain forgotten.
  • Behind furniture placed along the Wall - why check the furniture along the way? This may be a favourite place for spiders to hide, as they like to hide in dark areas.

However, the grimiest place in your home cannot be found in the kitchen or bedroom. Did you know it may actually be your mobile phone? Your cell phone may be the grimiest, simply because of transfer from riding in the bottom of your purse. Did you know that the bottom of your purse contains more germs than the average UK house? Did you know that when researchers tested handbags, one in five may have enough germs on the handle to make its owner sick? This is why carrying antibacterial wipes to clean all outside surfaces and also use a fresh wipe inside may save lives literally. What type of handle can hold germs the longest and has the most germs? Leather handles are the best because the spongy material provides the area for germs to thrive and multiply in peace.
