Deep Clean Your Pantry to Keep Rodents, Ants and Roaches Away
Move In Move Out Cleaning Service Near Me
Today, we’re talking just a bit about how often you should deep clean your pantry to avoid pest. For us, effective pest control is easy because we take the preventative approach. We never use insecticides, sprays of any kind, bombs, or pest control services. We keep pests away by deep cleaning our pantry once a month. Every month. That is the regularity with which we deep clean the family pantry because we are firm believers in prevention.
In our home, we have a very high-traffic pantry, so making sure there are no spills, no open containers, no torn bags, no half opened boxes, no crumbs and nothing sticking to the shelf floor, are measures we have taken to ensure pests of any and all kinds never shows up in the first place. We do not use any toxic products, no fragrance products and no chemical products in our home. Everything we do is 100% natural for us and the environment. So keeping pests away is of paramount importance to us.
To clean your pantry, you will need about an hour, more, if you have a large pantry or double pantry. You will also need a hand vacuum, cotton wash cloth, natural non-toxic unscented dish soap, the kitchen sink or a bucket filled with warm water.
Remove everything from the pantry and vacuum each shelf, making sure you get into all the corners where crumbs can hide. Next, dip the cotton wash cloth into the soapy warm water, remove excess water from cloth and wipe off each shelf thoroughly. Make sure to clean everything that maybe sticking. Once you have cleaned all the shelves with the soapy water, fill the sink or bucket again with warm water and using the same cotton wash cloth go over each shelf again.
Make sure each shelf is completely dry before you begin to replace items. If you place paper wrap items while the shelf is a bit damp, those items may stick to the shelf, making them difficult to remove. You can also try lining your pantry shelves or using bins to help make it easier to keep your pantry nice, organized and clean. Do not forget to clean up anything that spill in your pantry right away.
