Every year when the snow begins to melt, the birds begin singing, and the sun seems to be shining just a little bit brighter, spring fever starts to set in. This is the time when you get an itch to do some spring cleaning in your house. While you should do your best to keep your home clean throughout the year, there is not always time to do in-depth cleanings and really scrub out the dirt that builds up. Usually it is when the weather warms up that thoughts begin turning to spring cleaning. The first thing you should think about is eliminating any bug problems you may have. The winter months may put the issues on freeze, but once the weather warms, the bugs will return. Before you are left dealing with a major issues that is expensive and time-consuming. Contact a pest control professional. Termite treatments will help you keep your house sturdy and in tip-top condition.
Spring is also a great time to root through your old items and get rid of stuff you no longer use. Purging old belongings is a great way to start organizing and cleaning. The less you have to deal with, the shorter a period of time it will take for you to complete spring cleaning, and regular weekly and daily cleanings as well. Donating old things that are still in usable condition will also help you feel better about your efforts since you are helping someone in need.
Once you feel lighter from your lack of stuff, get to washing things you normally ignore during regular cleaning sessions. Chances are, no matter how often you clean, walls and windows are put off as long as possible. During a spring cleaning session, be sure to get to these neglected areas. Wash windows indoors and out, even if you have to do a little climbing or maneuvering. If you are uncomfortable with reaching your windows, hire a professional cleaner during this once a year session.
After you have pushed the dirt downward from the walls and windows, you can mop the floors. Get out the vacuum to suck up the worst of the dust bunnies and debris. Next, mop linoleum or hardwood with the appropriate materials, or use a carpet cleaner to dig deep into the fibers and pull up everything that has built up. Once you have done a deep cleaning, go over it one more time with the vacuum, just to get up any remaining crumbs and fuzz.
Lastly, do a general cleaning of your house. Nothing is worse than spending an entire day, weekend or even a week cleaning and feeling like your house is still a mess. Go through each room, make sure everything is in its place, and get things organized. Throw away old mail, washing a few loads of laundry including linens, and enjoy the time while your home is at its cleanest. For the next few days, your house will be clean enough to improve your mood and help you catch a case of spring fever.
