The end of the year is approaching, and in the blink of an eye, it is almost time for the annual cleaning.
Regardless of rural or urban areas, many people will clean their homes, not only for cleaning, but also to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, and welcome the arrival of the new year with a new state.
Some items that have been used for a year or beyond their expiration date will not only have no effect, but will also waste space because they are difficult to store.
But there are some elderly people who will always uphold the fine character of diligence and thrift, and will collect these things.
It is recommended that you throw away these few things at home when you clean up the year before.
rug
I don't know if you have noticed, when you go to many people's homes, you will always find a carpet at the door that is "safe in and out".
The main function of this carpet is to absorb the dust on the soles of the shoes of outsiders after they come in, and it also has the meaning of protecting peace inside.
Especially nowadays, many people's homes are laid with floors, and in order to be clean and tidy, they will basically put a carpet at the door.
Others choose to place some large plush rugs in the room for the sake of the sophistication of the whole room.
Although it looks very pleasing to the eye, after using it for a while, you will find it very troublesome.
First of all, carpets are fibrous things, and they are an excellent hiding place for some food residues, dust, powdery and other dirt.
If it is not cleaned for a long time, the carpet will become a petri dish for some bacteria and microorganisms, and gradually become moldy and smelly.
These carpets are also very laborious to clean, not only can they not be washed in a washing machine, but they also take a lot of time to clean.
In particular, large carpets placed in the living room or plush carpets placed in the bedroom may not be cleaned.
In the end, you have to spend money to find a professional to clean it.
Therefore, for this kind of carpet that has been used for a long time, it is better to throw it away as soon as possible.
Lao Xiangzi
In the mainland, chopsticks are a way of eating that has been handed down from ancient times to the present, and the use of wooden chopsticks has been used for thousands of years.
For 99.99% of families in China, chopsticks are the most practical and convenient eating tools, and a pair of chopsticks can make it easy for us to enjoy a variety of food.
But as the saying goes, "illness comes from the mouth", and the quality of chopsticks determines the health of the family.
I don't know if you have noticed that these wooden chopsticks will have obvious mold in a humid environment like the kitchen.
The main reason is that wooden chopsticks retain their own strong water absorption, and they are prone to mold when exposed to humidity for a long time.
In fact, there are a lot of bacteria stored on these moldy chopsticks, and there are so many types that overuse can cause physical discomfort.
For the kind of wooden chopsticks that have been used for a long time, it is better to deal with them as soon as possible.
Plastic bags for food waste
Have you noticed in your life that there are some elderly people who will always hoard the bags left over from shopping at home, and they can use them next time.
But in fact, for a long time, these plastic bags will not be used, but will be hoarded more and more.
The two types of bags that are most likely to pile up in the home are tote bags and plastic bags.
Tote bags are reluctant to be thrown away because of their beauty or the convenience of going out to carry things, but plastic bags are used as garbage bags for many people to take home.
But the end result is often due to improper storage or excessive hoarding, which leads to taking up space and affecting the cleanliness index of the home.
For this kind of bag, it is recommended that everyone do not hoard it at home for a long time.
The main reason is that some bags of vegetables or meat will drop a lot of dust and easily stick to a lot of bacteria after a long time of hoarding.
If it's not used as a garbage bag, it's better to throw it away.

For many families, rags are one of the essential items, as long as there is dirt in the home, we will Xi wiping with a rag.
Many rags are modified from some rags, and this kind of rag has a problem without exception, it will become black and yellow after a long time, and there is a rotten smell.
But they didn't know that the longer the rag is used, the more bacteria are hidden in it.
This kind of rag looks very disgusting, but there are still many families who insist on using it, and many people will think that this kind of rag is just not cleaned, and it can be used after cleaning.
After cleaning, the cloth will be used to wipe the table, wipe the stove and clean the windows.
However, this kind of cleaned rag is not cleaned, but will bring all kinds of unpleasant odors to the home, becoming a new source of pollution.
In addition to the rag, like a foot cloth. Towels etc are all the same.
Therefore, it is recommended to replace this knitted fabric at home with a new one when cleaning during the Chinese New Year.
Old clothes and broken shoes
In many places, there is a Xi of wearing new clothes every Chinese New Year.
Some old clothes and shoes will naturally choose to be replaced, but some elderly people will choose to disassemble these things again because of frugality.
With the improvement of modern living standards, the life of sewing and mending for another three years in the past has long become a thing of the past, but the good Xi of thrift in the past has not changed.
Many older generations are reluctant to throw away those old clothes or torn shoes when faced with them, and instead choose to hoard them.
But this kind of clothing doesn't do anything, but wastes a lot of space.
At the same time, there is an old saying "wear new shoes for good luck", which means that the new year will have a new beginning.
If you wear old shoes or shoes that have been torn, you can carry bad luck from one year to the next.
This is something that many people don't want to see, so in the new year, throwing away old clothes and ripped shoes also means that good things will happen in the new year.
In general, every family has these things to a greater or lesser extent, but very few can be dissolved.
But even for those who are thrifty, they should throw away some things that should be thrown away, and things that should be replaced should be replaced, after all, the price of these daily necessities is not expensive now.
Do you have any thoughts on this? Do you know what you need to throw away?
