Note: Although it is mid-summer, the total number of pollen in much of central-eastern Pennsylvania, according to Accuweather.com, remains at a moderate level. The following helpful tips from Cleanhaus can help you breathe better when pollen affects you or your loved ones.
1. Change your air filter, change your air filter, change your air filter.
If your home seems to accumulate dust at an amazing rate, check your air filter. Your current filter probably will not do the work you could do in a maintenance program unless you change it regularly. If you have pets, smoke or leave your windows / doors open often, your air filter should be replaced once a month. Keeping your HVAC filter clean is the fastest and easiest way to reduce breakouts of allergies and sinusitis in your home.
Tip: Never forget to change your filters, enter your HVAC filter size (with microfiltration) to deliver with Amazon "Subscribe & Save" in a scheduling agreement that gives you the most convenience (once a month) or 4 times a year).
2. Do not wash the dishes with a moldy rag.
If you want to use a cloth to clean the counter and / or to rinse the dishes and to hang the cloth frequently over the faucet or between the two basins, there is seldom the possibility of it completely drying between uses. It becomes an incubator for molds. Like a proverbial canary, I can smell and recognize one of those rags on the other side of the room, but many people are not prone to that smell, they recognize it or they have become blind. Change your disulfag for a new daily or disinfect it daily.
Tip: Keep a glass of old cucumbers (or a container with a wide mouth and tightly closed lid) under the sink, which is partially filled with water and a little bleach so that it can be soaked and rinsed off without rinsing to take extra step off the sink.
3. Sleep on clean bed every week.
A set of sheets per bed is no excuse to sleep in a den of bacteria, viruses, cosmetics, sweat, peeling skin cells, animal hair, mites, mushrooms, etc. ... when you roll in a dirty sheet and expose yourself to a flood of disgusting crawlies. If the situation is that you have a bunch of leaves, wash them before going to work, dry them during dinner and replace them at bedtime.
Tip : rent Cleanhaus to do it for you. Changing the leaves is only the task that I feel the most. Four hands The bedding changes properly and without frustration really, really requires four hands, not two ... but I lose ...
4. Vacuum regularly with HEPA filtration (high-efficiency air); not only carpets, but also wood and tiles.
If you take the time to scrub, but do not first soak in the area, moisten and repel a lot of animal hair that should have been removed before you clean the floor. , Loop wipers are heavy and difficult to rinse when dirty water is changed for cleaning. They also draw too much water and cleaning solution on the floor, so it takes time to dry.
Tip: Release the mops and replace them with lightweight microfiber pads. Buy additional microfiber pads. If your microfiber pad is dirty before the floor is clean, throw it into the sink and replace it with your bracket.
5. Make sure the extractors in your bathroom can remove moisture.
If the moisture is not properly removed after showering, consider using a more powerful air extractor. Humid environments promote the growth of mold, which in turn irritates the allergies of many people.
Professional advice: Replace your existing fan with a more robust and moisture-sensitive fan that automatically adjusts the motor to the current humidity. Most hardware stores now use them, or take one on their weekly Costco trip. I saw one last week!
