(BPT) - Spring brings longer, brighter days, warmer temps, fresh air and a sense of renewal that's positively inspiring. It's no wonder this season motivates many to refresh their homes.
While there's nothing quite like the joy of a sparkling, clean home, spring cleaning can sometimes feel like a chore, but with your favorite Lysol® products, it can become a moment you actually look forward to.
This season, the experts at Lysol share tips to help transform your cleaning routine into a sensory experience.
Declutter before you disinfect
Take a moment to declutter your space. Removing unnecessary items instantly makes rooms feel lighter, brighter and more inviting — and helps you spot messes you didn't even realize were there.
Tackle one area at a time, like a countertop, shelf or corner. Sort items into three piles: keep, toss and donate. Be honest about what you truly need and let go of what's just taking up space.
Try Lysol Lavender & Cotton Blossom scented Disinfecting Spray to disinfect both hard and soft surfaces throughout your home. It kills 99.9% of viruses and bacteria, including cold and flu viruses*, and can be used on many frequently touched surfaces like desktops, metal door handles** and countertops.
Let fragrance refresh your cleaning routine
While cleaning and disinfecting your home, play around with the scent of the products you use to help transform cleaning from a chore into an enjoyable ritual.
The Lysol Lavender & Cotton Blossom fragrance is ideal for a spring reset, as the scent blends notes of lavender, jasmine and violet with subtle hints of energizing apple and green pear. Rich sandalwood and white musk, reminiscent of cozy cotton blossoms, round out the scent for a refreshing finish.
Once you've tackled the big, obvious areas of your home, it's time to dig into the spaces that often get ignored but can harbor a surprising amount of dust, grime and germs. Think stovetops, light switches, metal door handles and all those hard-to-reach corners where clutter collects.
Give these hidden areas the same energy you gave to the main rooms. A thorough wipe-down can make a noticeable difference, especially on hard surfaces like sinks, bathtubs, cabinets, appliance exteriors and more.
A little attention here goes a long way.
Enjoy the sound of music
Make the entire cleaning process a whole lot more fun by cranking up your favorite high-energy or uplifting music that moves you. Let the beat carry you along as you declutter, dust and refresh your home for the season ahead.
When you're finished, kick back, take a deep breath, relish in your refreshed space and enjoy the atmosphere that comes from a delightfully clean home.
