5 Hidden Places You Forgot to Spring Clean and How to Clean Them Safely

5 Hidden Places You Forgot to Spring Clean and How to Clean Them Safely

Posted on May 01 2025, By: Kathleen Chaput

Spring cleaning season is here, and while most people remember to clean windows, counters, and floors, there are a few sneaky spots around the house that often get overlooked. These hidden areas can collect dust, grime, and allergens — and may be affecting your home more than you realize. At Organic Cleaning Supreme, we know exactly where these messes hide, and how to clean them safely using non-toxic, eco-friendly products.

Here are five often-forgotten places you should add to your spring cleaning checklist:

1. Baseboards

Baseboards are magnets for dust and scuff marks, especially in high-traffic areas.
How to Clean: Use a microfiber cloth and a gentle, non-toxic cleaner to wipe them down. Be sure to get into corners and along edges where grime builds up.

2. Under Appliances

Out of sight, out of mind — until you move your fridge or stove and see what’s underneath. Crumbs, pet hair, and even old spills often accumulate here.
How to Clean: Slide out the appliance (carefully), vacuum loose debris, and then wipe down the floor and baseboards with a safe, degreasing cleaner.

3. Ceiling Fans

Dusty fan blades can fling particles into the air every time you turn them on — not ideal for allergy season.
How to Clean: Use a duster or cloth to gently wipe down the blades. For extra buildup, a damp cloth with an all-purpose cleaner works best.

4. Light Switches & Door Handles

These high-touch areas collect germs and fingerprints but often go unnoticed.
How to Clean: Wipe with a microfiber cloth and disinfectant that's safe for both your home and the environment.

5. Tops of Cabinets

Greasy dust on cabinet tops can make your kitchen feel less than fresh.
How to Clean: Dust first, then follow with a damp cloth and a mild cleaner to lift away grime.
