Keep your home healthy

It seems like everyone is sick these days. I know everyone in my house has the flu which is very unpleasant so let this be a reminder to keep your home healthy with regular check ups and some 'at-home' prevention too.

Clothes Dryer

- after every load of laundry, clean out the lint filter

- clean the dryer vent and exhaust duct too

Refrigerator

- clean the inside regularly using a scrub brush and some mild soap or baking soda

- don't try to repair a broken fridge if you do not know what you are doing, you could do way more harm than good!

Oven

- wipe excess crumbs from the interior and stove top as well

- wipe and scrub down the oven racks too

Microwave

- clean the inside walls

- clean the removable glass tray

Smoke Detector

- remember to have one on each floor

- vacuum the detectors

- replace the batteries each season

Computer, cellphone and other

- wipe down these surfaces (remote controls too) with disinfecting wipes especially during cold and flu season

A clean home is a healthy (and happy) home.

Treat your appliances with TLC and you will have a long, happy and healthy life together!
