Isn’t it nice to sleep and wake up in your own bedroom? It’s like your own sanctuary in your own home for the reason that this is where you’re having your peaceful moment. Although others would say they prefer other parts of their home as their favorite. But at the end of the day, the bedroom is where we retire as we sleep on our own bed.

Cleaning your bedroom may or may not already be part of your routine to keep your house in its pristine condition. On the other hand, we often miss focussing on one part of our bedroom which is under the bed.

Is It Necessary to Clean Under The Bed?

Yes, it is a must to do so! You should know that under the bed is one of the perfect common grounds where a variety of dirt builds up. It can become the source where bacteria, germs, viruses, and other harmful pathogens grow if left undisturbed. 

Most importantly, you are exposed to unhealthy and unsanitary air while you are sleeping. It might not be noticeable at the moment, but over time, chances are the effects on your health will start to show.

Clean and Declutter

In order for you to properly clean under the bed, you should know and accept the fact first that it’s not just all about sweeping and vacuuming. It should be more than that! It’s not just dirt that might be starting to build up there. There are most probably other things stuck in that place such as your personal belongings (that you rarely used and assumed lost), leftover midnight snacks, and many more.

So, what you need to do is to declutter first. Make sure to remove first those things under your bed before starting to clean. And if in case you have items that you have no other place to put it instead of under your own bed, at least organize these things so that the next time you clean, it will be easier for you.

Use a Vacuum and Do It Properly

It’s given that not all beds can easily be moved or lifted in order for you to thoroughly sweep the floor. It is easier when you use a vacuum (and it is faster). An ergonomically designed vacuum can save you time to remove the dirt under the bed. If you are more techie and have a budget, a vacuum robot can do the work for you.

If you clean under the bed thoroughly, the good news is that you don’t have to vacuum it everytime. You can just do it twice a month. The main point is, when you’re cleaning, don’t lax and only give half your energy. If you’re gonna clean, do it properly as it is also a form of exercise.

Make It Part of Your Routine

As mentioned earlier, if you’re going to clean, do it properly so that the next time you do it, it would be a lighter task for you. And as time passes by, you will notice that it is not only part of your routine but also keeping you fit and healthy physically. Furthermore, you’re keeping yourself breathing cleaner air in your bedroom because it is clean.
