You will need to discuss with your pest control expert to know when and what to clean after the treatment. Sometimes, you may have to wait a couple of weeks for deep cleaning to avoid wiping up the treatment they applied.

However, you’ll want to wipe down any surfaces you use for food prep and eating. Before the treatment, you’ll also want to make sure that items such as pet dishes and children's toys won’t be exposed to the chemicals.

While you don’t have to have a spotless home for your maid service visit, preparing for a housekeeper makes their visit as efficient as possible. First, if you have pets, ensure they are in a secure location. Your maid service will most likely be coming in and out of your home, and you don’t want the potential of a lost pet. 

Placing your valuables and fragile items away in a secure location is also a great way to prepare for your visit. Additionally, decluttering your floors and counters can help make your visit as organized as possible.

Professional maid services can help tackle cleaning projects for your home. These tasks include day-to-day cleaning, which includes:

• Making the beds

• Dusting 

• Cleaning bathrooms

• Vacuuming flooring

And deep cleaning, which includes:

• Window washing

• Polishing hard-to-clean surfaces

• Cleaning behind furniture

• Deep cleaning appliances

Professional maid services can also clean your home if you’re moving out and if you’re hosting an event at your home, both costing up to $500.

You’ll often find mildew and soap scum in the same place, but they are very different substances. Mildew is a substance composed of living fungi, whereas soap scum is primarily an accumulation of mineral deposits. Mildew needs chronic moisture to thrive, while soap scum is unaffected by damp conditions (though it is a residue left behind by the water).
