As home cleaning professionals, they&#8217;ve been around the block, literary, and use their experience to hit these neglected places. Reddit users on \/r\/AskReddit that work as house cleaners or maids <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/AskReddit\/comments\/8qfm3u\/professional_house_cleaners_of_reddit_what_do\">recently answered questions about places in your home that rarely get cleaned<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>Most Used Fixtures<\/h3>\n<p>Door handles, light switches, cabinet handles\u2014u\/Hmscaliostro explains these are normally overlooked. Think of how often you touch them and you&#8217;ll realize the answer is probably every day. If you want to get rid of germs you should clean the areas you touch most often.<\/p>\n<h3>The Dust Spot in the Kitchen<\/h3>\n<p>You might have an immaculate kitchen. But according to u\/9bikes, there is one area that is continually neglected: the top of the refrigerator. It&#8217;s understandable since maids notice that people normally clean up to eye level. After reading this, find a way to see the top of your refrigerator. How much dust did you find?<\/p>\n<p>Since we&#8217;re in the kitchen, an &#8220;honorary&#8221; mention in this room is the dish drying rack. Plastic dish drying racks eventually accumulate grime. Maids and house cleaners recommend either a metal dish drying rack or a kitchen towel.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment1.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1228 \" src=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment1.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"609\" height=\"80\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment1.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment1-300x39.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 609px) 100vw, 609px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>The Secret Bathroom Grime<\/h3>\n<p>There&#8217;s one part of the bathroom that often goes neglected: the shower curtain. Inside these, you might find mold and mildew, both of which are unwelcome guests in any home. U\/melmia88 advises to &#8220;have a mold and mildew spray next to the tub for quick spritz every now and then between cleanings&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1224 \" src=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"614\" height=\"93\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment.jpg 757w, https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment-300x46.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 614px) 100vw, 614px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Shiny Objects<\/h3>\n<p>Just because an object is metallic doesn&#8217;t mean it stays clean. These objects can be full of germs is not cleaned regularly. Maids and house cleaners have labeled tea kettles, light fixtures, and appliances as objects that should be wiped down from time to time. U\/Hmscaliostro explains &#8220;the finishing touches they miss are polishing or wiping down their kitchen bin, kettles, and other shiny things on their counters&#8221;. A couple more perfect examples are metal can openers and toilet handles.<\/p>\n<h3>Do Germs Climb?<\/h3>\n<p>House cleaners and maids have mentioned the walls are often neglected areas. If young children and dogs live in a home, consider bending down to their eye level. Do you see any muck or otherwise dirty areas? Even if the walls appear clean, it&#8217;s a good idea to disinfect them from time to time. U\/Bjorna_Gloom explains there is often &#8220;grime so thick on the walls you could make an entire bar of soap out of it&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1229 \" src=\"http:\/\/rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"625\" height=\"55\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2.jpg 775w, https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2-300x26.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2-768x67.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.rpsrelocation.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/06\/redditcomment2-770x68.jpg 770w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 625px) 100vw, 625px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Get Started<\/h3>\n<p>Now that you&#8217;ve learned of some of the more neglected and dirtier areas, you can put your knowledge to work.
