- Your Remote Control
Ever think about cleaning when watching your TV? I do it all the time, not! Well… possibly the next time you choose to sit and relax and watch your favorite show, you should consider grabbing a wet wipe or damp cloth and clean your filthy remote, especially if your little ones use it!
- Your Car Steering Wheel
You might be thinking your car steering wheel looks fine however take a white damp towel, wipe it and you will be appalled at the grossness you will see! Also think about how many people drive your car besides you. When you get your oil changed, take it to the mechanic or even your 16 new driver kid.
- Pop Up Sink Toppers
These things get full of hair and slimy goo created over time. Just pull it up and rub your finger underneath and prepare to be groused out! You can wipe it off by removing it or use vinegar and baking soda to clean your whole drain. Be careful when mixing these two because you will notice a volcano type of reaction.
- Air duct return vent
There are several ways to clean air duct returns. The first one is simply grabbing a butter knife and placing a thin rag on the end of it. Then stick it inside the grills and move back and forth. Another is pulling the screen off with a screw gun or screw driver and use a shop vacuum hose to suck out the dust. Or call a local professional air duct cleaner to do the job for you. Not only can they clean out your returns but all of your vents as well. If you live in the DFW area Quality Care Carpet Cleaning can give you a reasonable rate and clean all your air unit.
- Credit Cards
You may not be grossed out at the idea of just you touching your own credit card but think about the person behind the counters who potentially don’t wash their hands. Some even pick their nose! Gross!
- Can Opener
8 out of 10 people never consider washing their can opener. I’ll admit I’m one of the 8 people.
- Your Kids Legos
Think about how many pieces are touched and how often your kids wash their hands before play time? You can place them in a special laundry bag and place in your washing machine. Works great!
- Your Knife Block
Depending on how much you cook you may want to consider taking all you knifes out and clean the block.

- Your Tooth Brush Holder
Ever taken your tooth brush out and looked down in there? It’s amazing the amount of saliva and tooth paste that drips into the bottom of those tooth brush holders. Its shear nastiness times ten!!!
