6. Wearing dirty shoes inside the house

I really hope that you don’t wear the same pair of shoes inside and outside your house, because that’s a very bad idea, not to mention the repercussions this habit might have. You can stay away from long periods of vacuuming by taking less than 2 minutes to remove your shoes at whatever point you go into your home. Besides having clean floors, you can also keep away all the microbes and bacteria.

If it’s possible, wipe the bottom of your shoes with some antibacterial wipes every time you come home. Me and my family are doing this as a general cleaning habit, and we are very happy with how efficient it is to maintain a squeaky clean home.
