Summer is officially here! While it may be all too easy to get wrapped up in the excitement of the summer and completely disregard the cleanliness of your home, there is no reason why you can’t thoroughly enjoy the outdoors while maintaining a clean house. To ensure that your home is clean and ready for summer entertaining, consider these tips for keeping your floors clean during the upcoming months!
No Shoes Inside
To avoid tracking dirt indoors, establish a quick and easy rule to follow: no shoes indoors! Let family members and guests know that they need to take off their shoes before they enter your home. Consider designating a place by the door where people can leave their shoes as they come to your home, so they are less likely to forget.
Take Care Of Stains/Spots Right Away
Do you have children or pets? If you do, you need to realize that spills and accidents are virtually inevitable. Since this is the case, you always want to be ready! Stains and spots need your attention right away, so it is a good idea to have a stain remover and other cleaning supplies on hand and make sure they are easily accessible.
Invest In Floor Mats For Every Doorway
A great line of defense for dirt from entering your home is to have floor mats at every door. If you don’t want to have a ‘no shoe’ policy, you should at least ask people to wipe their shoes on a doormat before they enter your home. Wiping off your shoes only takes a second, and can often make a difference of someone tracking mud through your home.
Vacuum Frequently
A quality vacuum can be a lifesaver to your floors. You can preserve the life of your floors and carpets if you vacuum regularly. Try to make a habit of vacuuming regularly. If you need to, designate days throughout the week where you will clean your home to hold yourself accountable.
