It’s sort of like a secret weapon when you are trying to clean in and around your house. There’s no doubt that chlorine bleach gets the job done and done thoroughly. It can eliminate mold and mildew that can sprout into some scary, fuzzy stuff that is not good for you if you happen to breathe in any of the airborne spores that come from it. Chlorine bleach is also super at disinfecting surfaces as you clean them. In fact, it truly can be the professional house cleaners Philadelphia best friend.

However, as effective as it can be, there are a few really good reasons why Executive Maids and many other professional home cleaners do not use chlorine bleach. We prefer to use a hospital strength disinfectant which is as effective without the danger.

Here is a quick look at three of the downsides to using chlorine bleach:

 

1 – It Will Eat Stainless Steel For Breakfast

Yup. Chlorie bleach is strong enough to give stainless steel a run for the money. In fact, chlorine bleach can quickly corrode stainless steel and can actually eat a hole in it. Your obvious solution to prevent that from happening is ensuring both don’t meet anytime soon.  This maid service prefers to protect our clients’ stainless steel appliances.

 

2 – It Can Have An Explosive Personality

Imagine the mish-mash of chemicals you have stored under your sink. When you add chlorine bleach to the mix you are actually creating conditions that can lead to an explosion. This is the direct result of the chemical reaction that develops from the various gases that are coming off of all the chemicals sitting in that cupboard. By storing chlorine bleach separate you prevent this from happening.

 

3 – Don’t Splash It On Stuff  

Remember, if chlorine bleach can eat through stainless steel, it can cause other kinds of damage as well. If you were to get bleach on your clothes, the colors will fade. If any gets on your skin, you can suffer various types of burns.  This house cleaning service does not want to risk spashing bleach on your belongings.

 

There Is A Silver Lining, Of Sorts

Chlorine bleach does lose its strength over time. Fortunately, it happens rather quickly. As an example, chlorine bleach that has sat for six months can be 20% less effective than it was fresh out of the bottle the day you opened it.  Still not a reason for Executive Maids to use it.  We still prefer using disinfectant.  It’s just safer for our house cleaning clients.

 

Why You Would Use It In The First Place

Well, as we’ve stated, chlorine bleach is pretty strong. It is an effective cleaner when applied to vinyl siding, rubber mats, floors, shower curtains, garbage cans, countertops, toilets, sinks, tubs, showers and many other items in your home. Be sure to read the instructions before use which will inform you to cut the bleach down with water for best results. These are still not good enough reasons for Executive Maids to use it.  We still prefer using disinfectant.  It’s just safer for our house cleaning clients.  If you want bleach, we just ask that you be the one to spray it where you want it used prior to the maid service arrival.

The easy answer to the question, “How many pregnant women does it take to clean an average sized home?” should be zero. However, it is not uncommon for expecting mothers to be the only person in the household who is able to take care of the cleaning chores. But there are a few things that you should do and not do in relation to housecleaning while you are expecting. This article will take a look at them.

But first, a reminder for the dads-to-be. Sure, when your expectant better half is experiencing a rapid fire series of changing moods and stresses, handing her a broom is not going to get you a hot meal any quicker than normal. However, housecleaning – and generally light duty chores – can be a real stress buster. Hiring a Executive Maids, a professional house cleaning service is a lot smarter in the long run and could actually score you some serious Brownie points you may want to bank for a later time.

Here are some tips for moms-to-be:

1 – Don’t Overdo It

You really have to pace yourself as you will not be able to do quite as much as you did before you got pregnant. It’s just fact. So, if you have even a simple house cleaning task to do, break it down into phases that are easy to manage and by the time you get to the last one, you’ll have accomplished that cleaning job.

 

2 – Watch The Products You Use

Do not, under any circumstances, use cleaners that contain harsh, toxic chemicals in them during your pregnancy. There are no ifs, buts, or maybes to this rule whatsoever.

 

3 – Be Mindful Of Movement

It may sound a bit on the silly side, but if you happen to make a sudden or jerky body movement while cleaning, you may end up spraining or pulling something. While this is true for most of us, it is of great importance to expecting mothers. You can avoid incident by ‘practicing’ the movements needed for house cleaning such as vacuuming, dusting and mopping.

 

4 – Ask Him To Chip In

As you move deeper into your pregnancy, it is more than reasonable to ask the father of your child to pitch in and carry some of the extra load that comes from house cleaning.

 

5 – Get Him To Clean The Litter Box

We know. It’s a nasty job even on the best day. However, while pregnant, you should steer clear of the litter box as the little nuggets left behind by Princess can contain a parasite that can impact the fetus.

 

Or, You Could Just Give Us A Call So You Can Lay Down And Rest

Probably the best thing to do when you are expecting is to leave the house cleaning to a professional house cleaning service. At Executive Maids, we can clean your house from top to bottom so that you don’t have to risk injury to you or your baby. Call us today at 215-690-4000 for information or to request a quote.

As hard as you may try to keep your home clean and tidy, there are many places where germs can take hold and move in. At Executive Maids, we are house cleaners who know exactly where these sneaky little organisms like to hide and we get rid of them as we clean and disinfect your home. The interesting thing is that you may not even be aware of where the germs are. So here is our list of the top locations in your home that germs will gravitate to.  Hiring a Maid Service will help to keep germs at bay.

 

1 – TV Remote Control

So you’re relaxing in front of the television with a friend or the family. There are snacks getting passed around about as often as the TV remote. Someone sneezes. Someone else licks their hand after eating a fistful of potato chips and well, you can pretty much come up with the rest. The TV remote is the one tool in your home that pretty much everyone will touch at least once per day. Our house cleaners clean and disinfect homes from top to bottom to elimate germs.  House cleaning tip: buy disinfectant cloths at the market. Wipe the remote after your guests leave and even once a week when you house clean.

 

2 – Computer Keyboard

If you eat at your computer or tap out email without first cleaning your hands you are just opening the floodgates for germs to find places in and under your keyboard to live. Any idea why the average keyboard has a removable keypad? That’s not so you can stash secret papers underneath – it’s so you can get access to where the germs are hanging out.  Our house cleaners use hospital strength, pleasant smelling disinfectant to eliminate the germs in your home.  House cleaning tip: wipe your keyboard once a week with a disinfectant cloth.

 

3 – Bathtub

Funny isn’t it? The place you go to get clean would be one of the most unclean places in your home. But when you consider the amount of dirt, grime and other stuff that comes off of your body after a good scrubbing, it makes sense that possibly some of it is not going to go down the drain. That’s where the germs come into play and they will multiply at will.  Our house cleaners scrub bathrooms from top to bottom so that your bathrooms will shine and be germ free.  House cleaning tip: Clean and disinfect your bathtub weekly with cleanser like Comet or Ajax or a bathroom foaming cleanser.

 

 

4 – Carpets

Hallways are a high traffic area when you think about it. Imagine how many feet, shoes or paws travel up or down the hallway in a normal day. The carpet provides a safe place for germs to live as they can work their way down to the bottom where you’ll never see them again. Tricky little buggers, aren’t they? Carpets anywhere in your home are breeding grounds for germs. Our maids vacuum and clean floors thoroughly every cleaning.  House cleaning tip: Vacuum all wall to wall carpeting weekly and have professionally cleaned twice a year.

 

5 – Ceiling Fans

The next time you walk by yours, take a look and you’ll get it. The fan spins around and around and in doing so it collects dust and all kinds of floating debris and sends it throughout the room to take hold of the TV remote or carpet or some other great place that germs will love to spend time in your home. Our maids will clean your ceiling fans so that the dust and dirt will not be strewn around your rooms when you turn them on.  House cleaning tip: Use a tall duster once a month and hand wipe a few times a year with a general purpose cleaner.

First off, Al Ergens is not the name of the guy down the street with the yappy dog. You’re thinking of Bob or Bill or some other guy.  House cleaning, whether you do it or your house cleaners do it, on a regular basis will keep allergens at bay.   

Allergens are those sneaky little buggers that cause you to sneeze, cough and create all other irritations of your throat, eyes and mouth. We’re talking the things that trigger allergies. If you do not suffer from any type of allergy, you are either lucky or you are not human. Allergies affect the majority of us and are a reminder for most that the great outdoors can make you sick if you don’t take proper precautions.

The same basic idea applies to your home. Believe it or not, there are all kinds of microscopic floaty things that invade each and every room of your living space. If you or someone in your home is sensitive to these irritants, they are going to pick up something and have an allergic reaction. To avoid – or at least reduce the risk – here are some cleaning tips that will help.

1 – Drag Out The Vacuum Cleaner Weekly

Okay, here’s the deal. If you dust and vacuum once, maybe twice a week you’ll be able to remove a lot of those tiny buggers. When you do this, you basically reduce the buildup of dust which is where a lot of these nasty little creatures will hang out. Destroying their habitat is a good thing to do.

 

2 – Mop It Each And Every Day  

Hard surface floors are tricky. They can help promote the buildup of dust bunnies. Dust bunnies usually carry allergens. When you damp mop all floors daily, the dust bunnies stay away.

 

3 – Go With The Double-Double

Here’s an afterthought for you. We could have edited it in but adding it here just helps to make our point. When you vacuum in your home, avoid using a regular vacuum bag. Opt for the double thickness type which will trap those microscopic critters so that they can’t sneak back into your home. Remember, allergens are too small to see which makes it easy for them to ambush you. That is a professional home cleaning service tip.

 

4 – Ignore #NoFilter And Use One 

One of the best ways to keep allergens at bay is to use filters on your appliances that blow air around.    

Think vents and vacuums and humidifiers. There are special hepa filters for each of these that will trap allergens so you can remove them from your home with ease.

 

Or You Could Just Let Executive Maids Do All The Dirty Work

 

At Executive Maids, we detest with complete disgust allergens, dirt and germs and are prepared to wipe them out of your home. If this type of cleaning we mention in this blog sounds like too much for you to take on, why not give us a call? At Executive Maids, cleaning your home is what we do. Call us today at 215-690-4000 for more information and a Free House Cleaning Quote. You can also Request a Quote online through our website. And if your name does happen to be Al Ergens, sorry. We didn’t mean to pick on you.
