We don’t exactly have spring in our region but that doesn’t mean you’re excused from spring cleaning. The new quarter is a great time to primp up your space and declutter. What better way to start than with a good ol’ vacuuming session? Not only does this cleaning activity help deal with dust bunnies, but it also has its fair share of health benefits.
When was the last time you vacuumed your home?
The health advantages of vacuuming
Apart from keeping your rooms visibly clean, vacuuming also helps remove pollen and other irritants and allergens that the naked eye can’t see. It also prevents microscopic mite infestations on surfaces like your bed, your couch, and your carpet,which can contribute even more to allergies or skin issues without you realising it.
Vacuuming also gets you moving, which means you’re working your muscles and putting in physical effort while getting some housework done. Who doesn’t like hitting two birds with one stone?
Check out these 10 vacuums available in Singapore that will significantly upgrade your house cleaning.
