The kitchen is one of the most popular rooms in the house. It should be multifunctional and cozy for all family members, because many would agree that they spend most of their time at home here.

However, there are always a million unnecessary things in the kitchen that interfere with cooking. Apartment Therapy interior portal has collected items that should not be on kitchen surfaces according to home maintenance experts.

Spices should not be stored in the kitchen.
  • Boxes with spices

Technology services expert Jonathan Faccone of Halo Homebuyers: "If you're not cooking gourmet meals every day, you're probably not using most of your spices. Unnecessary containers collect dust." Most likely, the kitchen is rarely cleaned under such jars, and there may be leftovers that will rot and feed cockroaches. Choose the most important spices, leave them on the shelves, and hide all other spices away from kitchen surfaces.

  • Defective appliances

If the coffee maker is working intermittently or the toaster throws a spark, turn off the appliance and take it in for repair, as it can be dangerous. A faulty appliance can cause power surges, which can lead to a fire. It is better to replace a broken appliance with a new one.

  • Chemicals

Kitchen dirt sometimes requires the use of heavy cleaning agents containing bleach and ammonia. Technology expert Mark Scott of Mark IV Builders advised removing chemicals from the kitchen, especially near food. Failure to do so can cause severe poisoning if the fumes get into the food. Store detergents and other flammable products such as alcohol, aerosol cans, and solvents in your garage or basement.

  • Embossed table and kitchen utensils that are difficult to clean

Expert Gerard Splendor said that wooden planks and other items that are often in contact with food need constant high-quality washing. Because they can absorb and multiply bacteria when we scratch the surface with a knife. "Tables with large pores and recesses will also collect germs and food debris. You need to buy a table with a smooth surface so that dirt can be easily washed off," says Rebecca Blacker, who owns apartment buildings in New York.
