Hi, I am a stay-at-home mom. House chores are my part of daily activities. I have a 3 yr old son so I see to that the house is always clean. What do you do to keep your house clean all throught the day. Is there any trick anybody want to share. I feel everybody has some style of doing things. Please share it so that we can benefit from it. We all need our house sparkling clean.. What's your idea of keeping the house clean?

The house doesn't need to be sparkling. I clean up after myself and my daughter (but of course she has to put her things away), and i use vinegar and bi-carb soda to clean with.

Thanks for sharing your thought. It's a new thing to me. I will give it a try by using vinegar and bi-carb soda. Yes, of course, the house need not be sparkling clean. It's just a way of expressing things. It's good that your daughter is helping you atleast by putting her things properly :)

That's so sweet. My son too imitates this kind of things. :). Kids are innocent and they deserve all the love and pampers. Take care.

That's great. I feel that you are really organised. It really helps. My son is too small to understand but I will teach him too. :)

The first thing I do in the morning is to get rid of all unwanted stuff. My wife cleans the entire house with the help of my son and i too lend my hand in garbate disposal. Then with an antiseptic liquid, the floors are swabbed so that the place smells fresh and clean. We do not wear footwear inside the hosue and generally it is clean. Kitchen is maintained by my wife and my room by myself and my son takes care of his room. living and drawing room is cleaned every day and the rooms once a week. Cleanliness is next to godliness and it creates a good working atmosphere if the house is clean always. it goes out of order, when only a few guests stay for couple of days.

If the guests overstay, my wife has found several techniques where the guests are involved in the houseold work like any other member of the family. Seeing this situation, they take to heels.

It a lovely thing to see the house clean and fresh. We too do not wear footwear inside the house. We have put linoleum so it is easy to keep it clean. I like the house clean and fresh. As you said, it really creates a pleasant atmosphere. As far as guests are concerned, I too have this problem of maintaining. But, I make it when all are gone.

I am cleanliness freak until i got my current job. Now, I am more lenient. But, trust me, coming back home and splurging into a soft , clean bed - nothing like it. But it takes a lot to maintain and cleanse the house. I do it evey Sunday, which is my off day. On other days, i keep all trash like laundry and stuff like that, on a store room and settle it down on sundays. Love and hugs.

Hi, Yes, you are right. I used to keep the house clean throughout the day. When I took up job, I could not maintain as before due to tiredness. But, I see to that the house is clean. I too did the laundries on weekends when I was on job. Now, I am a stay at home mom and I try to do the household chores throughout the day along with taking care of my kid. Regards and take care.

I have no children, just two dogs. I like to keep Lysol disinfectant wipes around. I think that is what they are called. They can fix a dog issue, a counter issue, even a floor issue. You can fill in the blank what the 'issue' might be. And the other thing I do every day to keep at least the mindset of my apartment being clean, is to vacuum. A clean floor makes up for a lot of other things.

Dogs are man's best friend. It is our duty to maintain the house clean and make it more a pleasant place to live in. I like the way to handle this cleaning thing. Vaccum cleaning is a part of cleaning for me too. I too believe that a clean floor gives a clean look to the house.
