Whether you’re a clean-freak or you dread the weekly vacuum throughout the house, we have some unique cleaning tips for you. Although you might think you are doing a thorough job ensuring your home’s cleanliness, here are seven spots you could be forgetting to sanitize.

Remote Controls

Yes, that object you grab when you rest on the couch after a long day of work! When was the last time you disinfected this thing? From skin contact, food remnants, and unclean hands, your remotes are in need of a routine clean.

Shower Curtains

You might think your everyday shower full of steam and heat is doing the trick for you, but it’s not. These bad boys can have a multitude of bacteria and mold build up if not properly cleaned. Even better, make it a point to periodically switch this one out.

Toothbrush Holder

Yikes! Although a nasty visual, your used toothbrush drips germs down into your holder. This guy takes the cake for one of the dirtiest places in your home. Consider running it through your dishwasher once a week or using a pipe cleaner in areas that are hard to reach.

Hairbrush

You are running bacteria through your clean, freshly-showered, luscious locks every day! Grab your shampoo and scrub the brush. Just like your noggin full of hair, rinse and repeat.

Ice Trays

Are you skeptical about the cleanliness of water and ice in restaurants? If you aren’t regularly washing out your freezer ice trays, you should probably be worried about yours. Your dirty, germ-filled hands are touching all over the tray and ice cube compartments.

Reusable Grocery Bags

We’ve heard this before. You are saving the environment and going green by reusing bags for grocery shopping. Think about it, have you ever placed raw meat in one of these bags? You could be spreading dangerous bacteria to other surfaces. Make sure you are running these bags through the washer after every trip to the store.

The only better feeling than a germ-free home is a spick and span car! Come see us at Lee Nissan of Fort Walton Beach, Florida to pick out your clean ride.
