Earlier this year, I shared a post with you on 10 Places You’re Forgetting to Clean. I received several awesome comments suggesting even more often ignored places people forget to clean. I gathered them along with some additional ones from me and created a new list of 10 MORE Places You’re Forgetting to Clean. This list is a little different in that it’s all about a quick, little fixes so you can keep your house everyday clean. With these tips, you’ll remember to keep these areas clean, a little each day, for a fresh house everyday.
1. Under the couches: It’s a scary place down there, let’s all just admit it. I don’t remember the last time I vacuumed underneath my couches and I have children, which usually means it’s a small toy mecca down there. You should try to get underneath your couches with a vacuum monthly to avoid toy collections, dust, and general grossness.
2. Dining room chairs: Sure, we all remember to wipe down the dining room table after meals, but what about the chairs? My kids just love to touch food and then grab the chair, covering it in grease or food. Take 10 minutes every other day to wipe them down using a little Clorox Pump ‘N Clean Kitchen & Dish Cleaner on a sponge. It cleans off the grime in no time and leaves your chairs freshly dusted, shiny, and new! It’s also perfect for quick clean-ups in the kitchen. Great for dishes, utensils, cutting boards, stovetops and countertops. Not for use to clean up after raw meat or fish. I found mine at my local Target, which was awesome because when am I not at Target? Ha!

3. Throw blankets: This is one I often forget. I use throw blankets on our couches for decoration and the occasional cuddle on a cold night, but I forget to wash them regularly. Considering that most of the time they’re just sitting on the couches collecting dust, this is an item I need to remember to add to my list on regular rotation.
4. Shower heads: When cleaning your bathtub, do you often forget to wash the shower head? We have hard water and if I forget to wipe it down along with the bathtub, our shower gets clogged quickly. I use Clorox ScrubSingles in our bath and on our shower head for a quick, easy, and efficient way to keep it fresh. These bathroom scrub pads are pre-loaded with Clorox cleaner so you can easily just scrub and go.
5. Ceilings: In the desert, cobwebs form constantly and are a huge source of grief for me. They love to gather in the highest corners of the ceilings and on the walls. What’s worse is they can quickly get out of control without you even realizing it. When you dust your ceilings, you’ll quickly begin to notice just how many of them appear. You can fix this with a long duster attachment that can help you reach the highest parts of your home. Don’t forget to run it down the length of the wall and your baseboards. You can use Clorox Triple Action Dust Wipes to clean an entire room. They have the clinging power to grab and hold onto dust, allergens (like pet dander, dust mite matter and pest matter), and even hair. This will take you just a few minutes for an instantly more polished looking home.
With a little effort everyday on these often forgotten places, you’ll find your home feeling fresher, cleaner, and feeling put together. For me, a clean home makes me feel refreshed, energized, and ready to tackle my day, which is why it’s important to me to keep up maintenance a little each day to avoid burning myself out. These tips and products from Clorox help me in my home and it’s my hope they’ll help you achieve a calmer mind too!
