Here are our top 5 reasons why spring cleaning is something you need to do this season.

Helps with Seasonal Sniffles

Spring is a big allergy season for many people. Dusting your home will help alleviate some of your allergy symptoms. Dust can cause sneezing, itchy-watery eyes and a stuffy nose. The more dust thats in your home coupled with your vulnerability to seasonal allergies equals a not so great time for you. Time to reach for that Swifter!

Beautify Your Home

Brighter and longer daylight hours can show off spots in your home that have been neglected. It’s not your fault, blame it on the dark days of winter and the need to hibernate. Either way, a thorough cleaning of your home will bring it back to the beautiful state that it was in before winter arrived.  

It’s Safe for Your Home

The onset of spring is the perfect time to check all smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home. This is one of the smartest and safest spring cleaning routines that you can adopt. Another time that you should check and replace batteries in both the smoke and carbon monoxide detectors in your home is in the fall season. In addition to the smoke detectors, you should also change your air filters during this time. This one is not much of a safety tip but it will help keep the air in your home clean.

You’ll Be Happier

Living in a clean organized home makes you a happier, more productive person. Imagine walking around your home and it’s completely organized.

This a good thing - don’t worry - you’re not inviting in the many messes of life into your home. Your just leaving space for the guaranteed fluctuation of energy, emotions and physical items. By doing this, you’ll be able to handle what comes your way without feeling like your drowning.
