There are only two types of people in the world - the ones who vacuum everything carefully, and the ones who avoid hard to reach places completely.

Even if you're the second type, it's still better to clean under wardrobes and beds occasionally, so they won't accumulate dust and bacteria.

Here are a few tips for you on how to clean your house and maintain it that way.

Low-Traffic Areas

For places like behind furniture or under heavy appliances that don't move, you can vacuum them about once a month. 

These areas don't get dirty as quickly.

Moderate-Traffic Areas

For spots that you use sometimes but not every day, like spare bedrooms or guest bathrooms, vacuum them every 1-2 weeks. 

This helps keep them tidy.

High-Traffic Areas

In places where you walk or use frequently, like the living room or kitchen, it's best to vacuum at least once a week. 

These areas collect more dirt and dust.

Special Circumstances

If you have pets that shed a lot or family members with allergies, you might need to vacuum more often. 

Pet hair and allergens can build up quickly.

Seasonal Cleaning

Consider doing a deep vacuum in hard-to-reach spots every season or when you notice they're getting particularly dirty.

Conclusion

Sure, it can take lots of time and effort to move your heavy furniture and to clean your house everywhere, but it's worth it.

You'll notice that your air feels fresher, and everything looks cleaner and nicer.
