Home cleaning maintenance and safety advice

Overview

Experts are providing guidance on home maintenance schedules and warning against certain cleaning trends. While daily tasks should focus on high-traffic areas and weekly tasks on deeper cleaning, specialists are cautioning against a social media trend involving dissolving dishwasher tablets in hot water.

Lucas Lar, a wood technology expert from Made of Wood, warns that the aggressive degreasers in dishwasher tablets can strip protective finishes from wooden floors, potentially causing premature wear. Furthermore, the use of hot water may cause wood to swell or deform. For wooden surfaces, specialists recommend using pH-neutral cleaners designed specifically for wood and ensuring cloths are well-wrung to avoid excess moisture.
