Isn't it ironic that the one place we use to clean our bodies daily is the one place we neglect to clean often? Since the shower isn't somewhere that our guests see when we entertain (usually... wink, wink) we tend to dismiss the need for routine cleaning until we can't see through the glass anymore.

The Fridge holds the yummiest things in your home, but it also holds the grimiest things!

PROBLEM:

Life gets so busy that we might leave chicken on the refrigerator shelf to defrost while at work, and then the baby’s bottle is put in once the chicken was gone. Another example is that old veggies that are molding are now active breeding grounds for harmful micro-organisms that can cause food-borne illnesses.

Dirty Keurig

Reports have come out concerning the Keurig not being made with a proper way to take it apart and clean it. But at least 1 in 5 households have one, so we need to come up with a good cleaning solution.
​
PROBLEM:
The filter, if not changed, adds non-needed bacteria, lime scale and rust to your coffee. The water tank is holding onto water where bacteria and mold will grow. 
The cup holder has holes to catch drippings, but it also holds onto the coffee and heats it up.  So, let's keep it clean!

If we consistently treat five particular areas in the kitchen, we can keep the presence of germs down and from spreading.  In this series of blog articles, I will be focusing on five items in your kitchen that could potentially be making you and your family sick.  So, let's begin with the first...

It is extremely important to do a walk-through of your home with the company in which you plan to hand your keys over to care for it.  We cannot stress this enough because every client is different and they have unique furnishings.  Unless verbally told or shown, a cleaning technician may not know or understand your particular furnishings or the hard work you have put into refinishing a piece (for example: an old antique dresser) as well as the money invested in each piece.  Sometimes when we change our home décor, our cleaning methods need to be altered as well.  Communication with your cleaning technician and company is key!  

We received an email from one of our Austin area clients alerting us to her new home furnishings that had a chalk painted finish.  We are so glad that she contacted us and made us aware of the change.  We needed some vital information from her regarding the piece so that we could ensure that we serviced it correctly.  It was so very important for her to tell us how long ago it was finished and what wax it was finished with so that we could know how to care for it.
