If you have time, consider cleaning the area behind your fridge. This area traps all kinds of food, dust and dirt, and it can also become a haven for insects.
“[It’s]a tough job and because of the heavy fridge it usually takes two members of the household to do it, but it’s worth it,” says Gomasi. “It’s simply a matter of shaking out your fridge and using some microfiber cloths, a strong degreaser and multipurpose spray to clean off the dirt, grime and dead bugs.”
