subject: Benefits Of A Clean Home [print this page] Take a moment and think of how you feel and how your family responds when your home is clean. Chances are, there is far less stress and chaos than when your home is dirty and full of clutter. To make sure that your home is always as clean as possible, it may become helpful to develop a chore chart for your family to follow.
This means that each family member will be responsible for a certain chore sometime during the week. For example, one child may be responsible for vacuuming on Mondays and Thursdays, while someone else is responsible for mopping and dusting. This will help ensure that no part of your home is ever overlooked at that everything stays somewhat clean, regardless of how busy you become during the week.
To ensure that your home is safe, it is important that you are quite particular in what cleaning products you choose to use within your home. Certain products are made with harsh chemicals, which can become unsafe for members of your family to breathe in. If you have small children or babies in your home, it is important that you look for products that use as many natural ingredients as possible. It is unsafe for a baby to breathe harsh chemicals, especially in a small confined area.
Furthermore, if you have asthma or one of your family members has asthma, it is vital that you only use natural cleaning products that are safe to use indoors.
It is important that you only use each product in the area that it is designated for. For example, if you have a product that is specifically created to be used as a toilet cleaner, you should definitely keep this product in the bathroom only; you should not use this in the kitchen or any other room within your home.
The reason that you should follow this "rule of thumb" is because cleaning products are created with various ingredients that become specific to the environment in which they will be used. This rule will also help ensure that your familys safety is not compromised through harsh products. The products that clean your bathroom and kitchen sink will certainly be different than the products that you use to clean your fridge or leather couches. All in all, you will want to ensure that you look for natural products, and only use them as instructed by the manufacturer.
