My husband loves it when I clean the house (which is less often that we’d both like these days with two kidlets running around). But finding the time to clean it from top to bottom (literally) is a challenge. More often than not, sections of the house get cleaned…just in time for other areas to get dirty.
For some parts of the country, allergy season is still very much a problem. Bedding, stuffed animals, and carpet can house bacteria, mildew, and dust mites, making it essential to take the necessary steps to keep them at bay. With environmental allergies affecting all of us, we take several steps to keep our home clean and allergen-free.
1. We encase our pillows and mattresses with covers from Aller-Ease.
2. We regularly wash our sheets, pillow-cases, and comforters.
3. We regularly wash my son’s stuffed animals
4. We regularly change our air filter (usually when the seasons change) (Filtrete’s Elite Allergen Reduction filter from 3M can capture pollen, smoke, dust mite debris, and pet dander from the air).
5. We use a vacuum with a HEPA filter
6. We My husband dusts everything (including fixtures) since I’m allergic to dust
