"Home is the place we live throughout our life and in order to make our environment healthy, our home should be kept clean and healthy."
Home is the place we live throughout our life and in order to make our environment healthy, our home should be kept clean and healthy.
We all have bad habits and among them in this article, we will talk about different types of household habits that should be stopped right now:
Rinsing food down the sink
Washing away excess food down the sink before doing the dishes is an easy habit to get into but this is a really bad habit that can clog up your drain and cause blockages.
Instead, scrape any leftover food into the bin before washing the dishes – it might be more time-consuming, but it’s better than dealing with the sink filled with foods.
Leaving dishes to soak in the sink
We all have a habit of leaving dishes in the sink for a long time. Leaving dishes in there for too long can allow the bacteria to grow on those.
Bacteria that you will be consuming later on. So to avoid this you really need to stop this habit of leaving dishes in the sink for a long period of time.
Painting over rusty railings
Another habit we have is painting over the rust. If the railings in your garden or balcony are starting to rust, applying a fresh coat of paint directly over them won’t solve the problem.
This is because rust prevents new paint from taking hold, so you’ll need to scrape it off and start from scratch.
Not cleaning the TV remote
This one is all too easy to forget but when you think about the number of times your TV remote is touched every day, it makes sense to clean it every week or on alternative days.
All you need to do is remove the batteries, then use a cloth and rubbing alcohol to clean all over the remote. If there’s dirt wedged in the gaps around the buttons, use a toothpick to remove it.
Not wiping door handles
When we clean our homes, we forget about the door handles. It is constantly used throughout the day and touched by every family member so it might carry harmful microbes.
It is obvious that diseases bacteria transfer from one person to another. You need to keep germs in check by remembering to disinfect your door handles at the end of every day.
Forgetting to clean stove knobs
This is the most neglected thing by us. We all need to keep in mind that the dials are regularly splattered with food and touched frequently between preparations.
So it is very necessary to give them a thorough clean. All you need to do is remove the knobs and wash them in hot soapy water.
