How Clean is Your Home?

1. If you smell a distinct odor coming from your kitchen, what do you do?
   • a. Rush to your refrigerator and cabinets with anti-bacterial spray in hand, determined to get to the source of the problem asap.
   • b. Do a quick wipe down of the counters, toss the garbage, and spray some Febreeze.
   • c. Wonder for a second if it might be the three-day-old yogurt you spilled on the counter this morning, and move on.
2. How often do you change your bathroom towels?
   • a. I wash my towels every 2 weeks.
   • b. Whenever I’m doing a load of laundry that could use a few more items, I’ll throw them in.
   • c. Change them? I guess I would change them if they began to sprout…
3. When do you clean your bathtub?
   • a. I spray it with daily shower cleaner after every use, and wipe down the curtain. I’ll also usually give it an intensive scrub down every week to keep it glistening!
   • b. Every two weeks, I’ll spray and clean it.
   • c. If my mother-in-law comes to visit, I’ll scrape away the grime and throw out the four or five empty shampoo bottles… if I have time.
