Biology

There seems to be a biological need to get the house in order once the dark clouds of winter have rolled away. What we now refer to as spring cleaning can in fact be traced back through the years to a number of different practices in other parts of the world. The tradition that most fits with how we view spring cleaning today can be traced all the way back to ancient Iran, or Persia as it was known at that time. Their New Year fell on the same day as the first day of spring, which led to many “shaking the house” to have it clean from top to bottom for the start of the New Year.

It is no secret that people tend to become a little depressed and moody during the winter months.

Easter

Another thing to consider is that Easter arrives when the spring months finally appear on the calendar. That is often a time when families get together to celebrate the season and have a family dinner. If you are hosting such an even, you certainly don’t want your guests to walk into a home that hasn’t been given much in the way of TLC in the previous months. Whatever the reasons, spring just seems like the perfect time to start opening up the home and making it feel fresh and clean again.

The problem that many people face is finding the time to do the type of spring cleaning that they want. There is more to the process than just a little bit of dusting and vacuuming, as the old winter clothes have to be packed away and the spring clothes brought out of storage. It’s a task that can seem overwhelming when you look at the big picture, but the good news is that there is help out there if you need it. Spring cleaning is no longer a chore that has to be done alone.
