When you're planning out your house cleaning schedule, there are a few areas that tend to get glossed over. While you may give certain rooms and surfaces a basic cleaning, it’s wise to cleanse them frequently to prevent germ buildup. Next time you schedule housekeeping services, allow the team to spend some extra time on the areas below.

3 Places That Need Cleaning Services the Most

1. Your Kitchen Sink

Kitchen sinks accumulate bacteria, including E. coli and salmonella, which can cause severe illnesses. These microbes lurk in your dish sponge, in the drain, and on the sink’s surface. To get rid of them, wash the sink daily with hot, soapy water, and disinfect it with a kitchen-safe cleaner regularly. 

2. Knobs & Switches

HousekeepingYour home's doorknobs and light switches are touched frequently by everyone in the home. Not only does skin oil and grime build up on these surfaces, but bacteria are deposited on them and can easily be picked up by the next person who touches them as well. Clean these areas with disinfecting wipes, both on a regular schedule and more frequently when someone is ill.

3. Shared Items

Similarly, there are objects in your house that get passed from one person to another and are rarely or never cleaned during routine housekeeping. Your television remote, computer keyboards, salt and pepper shakers, and telephones also need to be wiped down with disinfectants that include bleach. Take special care with electronics that could be damaged by water to make sure the disinfectant you're using doesn't get inside.
