A stinky, dirty refrigerator can quickly make you lose your appetite. As soon as you open the door, you’re confronted by the telltale signs of spoilage and general funk. A quick glance may show spills that have congealed into a sticky mess, crumbs, old produce and more.
If you pull out the food, drawers and shelves, you’ll inevitably discover other unsightly messes. Your refrigerator needs to be deep cleaned every few months, but you can pass this chore over to our housecleaners at Better Clean.
The unpleasant smells in your refrigerator can penetrate some of your foods. This is particularly problematic for relatively unsealed foods, such as leftovers that you wrapped only in foil or plastic wrap. The aroma impacts food flavor and can ultimately ruin it.
More than that, a dirty fridge is unsanitary. Some of the spills in your fridge may now be teeming with bacteria that cause serious health problems, such as Salmonella and E. coli. You might not see it right away, but mold could also lurk in your fridge. Often, it’s found underneath the drawers and shelves. Respiratory illnesses are commonly associated with exposure to mold.
There are also other concerns. For example, the filth in your fridge can attract pests into your kitchen. Pests carry a variety of bacteria and can crawl across your floor and counters without your knowledge. Plus, a dirty fridge functions less efficiently. Because the fridge often needs to work harder than necessary when it’s dirty, it drains energy, raises energy bills and leads to a shorter lifespan for the appliance.
Cleaning your refrigerator is time-consuming and messy. It requires you to pull all of the food out of the fridge and toss out all expired and questionable foods. You’ll need to remove and sanitize every shelf and drawer. Once the fridge is completely empty, you’re faced with the task of removing the sticky and moldy gunk in the refrigerator and sanitizing it.
