1)Toilet Brush:

For something that spends so much time in your home’s dirtiest places, toilet brushes don’t get replaced very often. Depending on how often you use it (and how many toilets each brush cleans), consider replacing yours every 4-6 months.

2)Garbage Disposal:

 After several years of abuse, garbage disposals often get jammed. Stop wincing as your disposal grinds and squeals and invest in a quality brand garbage disposal from Ace of Gray.

3)Water Filters:

 Water purifiers come with replacement filters for a reason. Follow the instructions on how often to replace your filtration system.

4)Cutting Boards:

 Old cutting boards develop knife slashes, which collect germs from raw meat. If your cutting board has discolored grooves, replace it.

5)Pillows:

People rarely consider how much dust, dander, and dead skin pillows collect. Buy a dust mite pillow cover, wash pillowcases often, and replace bedroom pillows every year or two.

6)Trash Cans:

 Considering how often garbage bags need replacing, it’s curious that so few people think to clean trashcans. Wipe yours with disinfectant whenever you take out the trash, and buy a new one when the smells start lingering.

7)Remote Control:

You may think your remote control isn’t that dirty, but it sits in the busiest section of your house collecting germs from pets and dirty fingers. Studies show remote controls may carry more germs than even toilet seats. Clean your remote regularly and replace it yearly to prevent germ buildup beneath the buttons.
