Spring Cleaning Isn’t Just for Closets—Your Health Needs It Too

Spring is officially here, and you know what that means… Spring Cleaning!
You know, nook and cranny cleaning!

It’s time to shake off the winter doldrums and open things up for the excitement of something new. Grab the window supplies, deep cleaners, and start shaking out the rugs and drapes—but don’t stop there!

Let’s talk about Spring Cleaning for your Health.
A clean space isn't just about appearance—it’s about creating a healthier home. Here’s where to start:

🧹 Dust & Allergens

  • Wash or vacuum curtains, rugs, and upholstered furniture

  • Wipe down baseboards, vents, and ceiling fans

  • Swap out HVAC filters to improve air quality
