☔ 1. Start with a Deep Clean

Before the season sets in fully, schedule a professional deep cleaning for your home. This helps remove accumulated dust, grime, and moisture pockets that can become breeding grounds for mold and bacteria.

UrbanMop™ Pro Tip: Focus on hidden areas like under the beds, behind furniture, kitchen cabinets, and bathroom corners.

🧹 2. Keep Entrances Clean

Install doormats both outside and inside entrances to trap moisture and dirt. Go for quick-dry, absorbent mats to keep floors dry and prevent slippery surfaces.

🧼 Clean them regularly to avoid mold buildup.

🌬️ 3. Ensure Good Ventilation

During monsoon, humidity levels soar. Poor air circulation can lead to musty smells and mold.

✅ Open windows during dry spells
✅ Use exhaust fans in kitchens and bathrooms
✅ Consider using dehumidifiers or placing bowls of rock salt in rooms to absorb excess moisture

🛋️ 4. Protect Upholstery and Curtains

Fabric items like sofas, curtains, and carpets absorb moisture and develop odor.

• Vacuum regularly to keep dust and dampness away
  
  

• Use dryer sheets or fabric sprays to freshen up
  
  

• If possible, replace heavy drapes with light, quick-drying materials during the season
  
  

🦠 5. Mold and Mildew Prevention

Mold loves the monsoon. Keep an eye on corners, ceilings, wardrobes, and behind furniture.

✅ Wipe surfaces with a mix of vinegar and water to kill spores
✅ Use baking soda to deodorize and absorb moisture in closets
✅ Keep furniture at least a few inches away from the wall

🧽 6. Bathroom Hygiene

Bathrooms can become breeding grounds for bacteria in humid weather.

• Clean tiles with antibacterial floor cleaners
  
  

• Dry bathroom floors after each use
  
  

• Keep the exhaust fan running or window open
  
  

🐜 7. Pest Control Readiness

Ants, cockroaches, and termites find their way in during the rains. Keep your home pest-free by:

• Sealing gaps and cracks
  
  

• Using natural repellents like neem oil or citrus sprays
  
  

• Scheduling a monsoon-specific pest control treatment
  
  

🧺 8. Laundry Tips for Monsoon

Drying clothes indoors becomes necessary—but be careful about odor and dampness.

• Use spin dryers or indoor drying racks near windows
  
  

• Avoid leaving damp clothes in the washer
  
  

• Add a few drops of essential oils to rinse cycles for freshness
  
  

🌿 9. Eco-Friendly Cleaning

Stick to non-toxic, biodegradable cleaning agents like vinegar, lemon juice, and baking soda during monsoon to keep the air quality clean and safe indoors.
