Quick things to keep your home cleaner

In this slowing economy, it is often hard for families to hire a company to come clean their home.
There are a few quick things you can do to keep things a little cleaner without much effort.
1. DOORMATS! I Know I say this all the time, but don't under-estimate the power of good doormats. One on the outside, rough and good for scraping dirt off shoes. Another inside, absorbent for those rainy or snowy days.
2. Even better, don't wear shoes in the house! The difference this can make is unbelievable.
3. Wash your hands! I know it sounds simple, but really it works. Especially with kids in the home, dirty hands track dirt all over the home. And of course this will cut down on illness in your home as well.
4. Change your air filters. Changing your filters will cut down on the dust around your abode.
5. Take 15 minutes a day (I prefer before bedtime) to just run around your home and pick things up. A tidy home will give the appearance of being clean, even if you haven't grabbed a sponge in a while.

And as always, if you are one of the lucky ones out there who can still afford a cleaning service, I'm still here! Frederick House Cleaning Services High quality, personalized services for many budgets and needs.
