5 Reasons to Get Your Apartment Cleaned Regularly

You may not think a cleaning service is necessary for an apartment, but your apartment is just as much a living space as a house is, and both have the same indoor cleaning needs. Whether you need to prevent allergens from invading your space, keep cold and flu germs from spreading within your home, there are many valid reasons to get your apartment cleaned regularly. 

Keep dust mites at bay

While piles of dust on bookshelves and in the far corners of your home may seem like little more than an annoyance, there’s actually much more going on at a microscopic level. Dust mites, which feed off dead human skin cells in dust, are teeny insect-like pests that live in your household fabrics, such as bedding, furniture, carpets, curtains, mattresses and stuffed animals. 

People with dust mite allergies are allergic to their droppings, which can be difficult to avoid when there are literally thousands of them present within your home. People with dust mite allergies may find relief, however, in a home that is regularly cleaned and free of items that cause dust mites to congregate. 

A thorough cleaning of your apartment, especially vacuuming of any carpet and mopping of floors, can help cut down on the creepy critters. 

Keeping a clean home is one of the most effective ways to keep your family safe during the cold and flu season, or any time when viruses and bacteria are likely to wreak havoc on your household. 

Common cleaning practices, when performed using disposable gloves and proper disinfectants, have been shown to reduce the amount of germs on surfaces, leading to reduced chance of illnesses spreading within your apartment. A professional cleaning service will know all of the most up-to-date methods of cleaning and disinfecting both hard and soft surfaces to minimize the risk of virus spread. 

You’ve had a long day at work and are ready to settle down and watch some TV before bed. You finish up the dishes, sit down and reach for the remote. That’s when you notice the fine layer of dust on the coffee table. The dust bunny under the media console. The funny, sticky stain on the kitchen floor you can’t identify. Your would-be happy evening has been ruined by a general sense of slobbery. 

A clean apartment is a happy apartment, and investing in a professional cleaning service will keep moments like this from creeping up on you, and keep your space vibrant and ready for anything, including a night spent vegging in front of the TV. 

These days, it can be a stretch to pull off the most basic household tasks while juggling a job, kids, relationships, sports, grocery shopping, doctors appointments and the abundance of other daily activities that come up. That’s why cleaning is often the last thing on anyone’s mind, and for good reason. No one wants to stress about cleaning the bathroom when there is so much else to concentrate on.
