If you want to host a party and invite lots of friends, then you probably need your house clean and nice - so it's time to clean it!

Cleaning your house before guests isn't mandatory for everyone, but it will help you feel confident and relaxed when they come.

Here are a few tips on what you should do to make your house as nice and clean as possible.

Declutter

Start by removing any unnecessary items or clutter from surfaces, floors, and furniture. 

Put away items that don't belong in the room to create a clean and organized appearance.

Dust surfaces

Use a microfiber cloth or a duster to remove dust from furniture, shelves, and other surfaces. 

Pay attention to commonly overlooked areas like ceiling fans, baseboards, and light fixtures.

Vacuum or sweep floors

Depending on your type of flooring, vacuum carpets or sweep hard floors to remove dirt, dust, and pet hair. 

Pay special attention to high-traffic areas and corners.

Mop hard floors

If you have hard floors, mop them with a suitable cleaner to remove any stains or spills. 

Make sure to let the floor dry completely before guests arrive.

Clean bathrooms

Scrub the toilet, sink, and bathtub or shower using appropriate cleaning products. 

Wipe down mirrors and countertops, and don't forget to replace towels and refill soap dispensers.

Wipe kitchen surfaces

Clean countertops, stovetops, and sinks using a suitable cleaner. 

Remove any dirty dishes or clutter from the kitchen, and don't forget to empty the trash.

Freshen up the air

Open windows to let in fresh air and improve ventilation. 

Consider using air fresheners, candles, or diffusers with a pleasant scent to create a welcoming atmosphere.

Check guest areas

Make sure the areas where your guests will spend time, such as the living room or dining area, are tidy and inviting. 

Fluff pillows, arrange seating, and set the table if necessary.

Previously, we talked about humidifying air quickly.
