When you are at someone else's house, is there anything you will notice if it isn't clean? - Page 2

Bathrooms and kitchens, especially refrigerators. My sil's house is filthy. There is always hair in her fridge and even the soap dispenser in the bathroom is covered in dirt.

I notice if the crockery I'm given to eat/drink from isn't clean. Otherwise, I really don't care.

It isn't a big deal but usually when there is company, it is one of the few times when the TV is off in many households. So I always get a giggle when I see the TV screen - especially the newer flat panel screens which are a pain to clean - are dusty and dirty.

I will notice if a bathroom floor, sink or toilet isn't clean.  The rest not really unless it was really obvious.

How do you get hair in your fridge?!!!!

I'm also wondering how hair gets in the fridge!

This thread put me into a cleaning frenzy yesterday. The fear of the judgmental drop by.

I'll notice if someone's bathroom is really icky, like a brown toilet. And if the kitchen is full of nasty dishes that haven't been done in days. I have a small kitchen and one very small bathroom, so I understand how quickly they can get messy, but neither should be moldy, mildewy, brown or green.

I admit to noticing strong animal smells and sometimes they are really icky. We got our nice couches a couple years ago from a neighbor that has two little dogs, it took three steam cleans to get the dog smell out, it was so gross! I have two indoor cats and a fluffy border collie and my house does not smell like animals, I get comments on it all the time when people are surprised to see cats because they did not smell the boxes. I don't use air freshener, I open the windows every day and keep the hair and litter cleaned up.
