A Clean and Healthy Home in Summer: Why it Matters and How to Achieve It

WRITTEN BY RENZNEIL ROBLES

In pursuit of a secure and comfortable living, everyone dreams of having a clean and healthy home, even making it top of their life priorities. But let's admit it: the task can be quite daunting for busy adults, especially millennial moms who are swinging between their several responsibilities.

And as the hot weather approaches, we face double the challenge of maintaining a tidy household. In particular, the popular belief that summer heat is enough to kill the germs often results in many people neglecting proper hygienic practices despite experts emphasizing its grave importance.

Here are the consequences of failing to keep our homes clean during summer:

1. Increased health hazards: A grimy environment combined with heat and moisture creates an ideal breeding ground for bacteria within our home. Prolonged exposure to these can lead to a variety of health issues ranging from common colds to infections, and serious illnesses.

2. Poor air quality: As temperature increases, so do dust mites, pollen, and other allergens or pathogens that easily thrive in humidity. When left unaddressed, indoor air quality is compromised and can trigger allergies or respiratory conditions like asthma.

3. Risk of contamination: With frequent outdoor activities this summer, dirt, dust, and debris can be tracked into our houses. Not only can the spread of these pollutants complicate efforts to sustain neat surroundings but also threaten the safety of the occupants. 

4. Damage to home: Neglecting sanitation allows humidity levels to rise, promoting the growth of molds. Consequently, this can lead to structural damage that is costly to repair, or foul odors causing psychological impacts such as stress, anxiety, and discomfort.

5. Pest infestation: Because pests and insects prefer enclosed spaces with an abundant source of food, they tend to seek shelter indoors to survive. Once they target to invade our homes, they can cause disturbance or in the worst-case scenario, carry and spread diseases.
