" I always comment if this is super dusty . "
Since it’s time to spring clean our homes, I figured it would be great to share the responses fromu/Ok_Emergency455’s Reddit thread where theyasked: “What’s the small detail in a home that makes you think, ‘Oh, these people are very clean?'” Here’s what people had to say below.
1.“Clean baseboards and toilet-seat hinges.”
2.“I know it’s wild that I look at this, but if that little weird area on the toilet is clean, like underneath, and it kinda goes inward? Yeah, that part. I’m like, these are some clean folks.”

" By the dash covers ? Yeah , that is ' lady friend , I really like is coming over for the first clock time ' clean . "

“I always notice if this is super dusty."
3.“I don’t smell pets even though I see them — I’m always impressed, considering I know how much effort it takes to make my house not smell like we have pets.”
4.“The vent covers, especially on the ceiling. Also, ceiling fan blades.”

" I keep an old case on hand to scavenge my ceiling fan blades . Just slither it over the steel and all the detritus stays inside the slip . When I ’m done , I shake up it out into the trash . "

5.“Clean microwave.”
6.“When it’s clean underneath their faucets. Particularly in homes that use well water or hard water — my faucets basically have fossilized well water deposits despite buckets and buckets of vinegar, so when I see a clean spout, I get cleaning envy and admire the faucet owner.”

7.“Clean sponge in the kitchen. I hate when I see a dirty, nasty sponge to clean dishes with.”
8.“No shoes allowed in the house.”
— u / spankyiloveyou
" I desire to be a horseshoe - free home . But my hubby does not give a fuck . I also have a toddler who takes shoes on and off all day for merriment . But what really irks me is when my hubby puts his brake shoe on the freaking dining tabular array or counters . Like WHY ? ! Put these dirty bottom stool pigeon literally anywhere else besides eating and food surface . "

9.“If they have one of those window cleaner things in their shower.”
10.“I’m 6'6”. 99% of refrigerators are dusty on top. That 1% is frighteningly clean people.”

11.“If the handles to the fridge and oven are smudge-free and the inside of the fridge is clean.”
12.“Tops of picture frames; I check that little shelf is 100% clear of dust. If not, I let out an extremely loud groan, leave in abject disgust, and cut that dirty SOB out of my life for good. This is how my ex-fiance and I split up after we visited her filthy parents.”

13.“Light switches and the walls around them clean. Also, door handles and the doors themselves. I clean these every week in my home — it grosses me out when they are nasty!”
14.“The kitchen sink and walls surrounding it. Lots of grime can pile up there and on the rim surrounding the faucet. Ours has a window, too, and since we strain our pasta, clean saucepans, etc, it looks similar to the walls surrounding the cooktop on the oven.”

15.And finally, “Clean blinds. They’re such a pain to clean. If someone has pristine blinds, I know they mean business.”
