Keep Your Space Fresh, Safe & Spotless — Even in the Wettest Months
The rainy season in Nigeria comes with its fair share of challenges — damp floors, musty smells, mold on walls, and fabrics that never seem to dry. But with the right cleaning strategies, you can maintain a fresh, healthy home despite the downpour outside.
Here are practical cleaning tips to help you weather the season — and keep your home cozy, clean, and mold-free.
1. Stop Mold Before It Starts
Mold thrives in humid environments, especially on walls, ceilings, and even hidden corners of your home.
What to do:
- Inspect damp-prone areas like bathrooms, under sinks, and behind furniture regularly.
- Use a vinegar-water solution or anti-mold sprays to clean mold spots immediately.
- Keep doors and windows open (when safe) to allow proper air circulation.

2. Stay on Top of Wet Floors
With rain comes slippery entryways, muddy shoe marks, and constant mopping. Wet floors are not just unsightly — they’re dangerous.
What to do:
- Place absorbent mats or rugs at all entrances.
- Encourage family members to leave wet shoes outside or by the door.
- Clean up water spills immediately using microfiber mops that absorb quickly.
3. Protect Your Fabrics & Upholstery
High humidity makes it hard for laundry to dry and encourages musty smells in bedding, curtains, and couches.
What to do:
- Wash and sun-dry fabrics when the weather allows — don’t leave damp clothes hanging indoors too long.
- Use moisture absorbers like charcoal or baking soda in wardrobes and storage areas.
- Consider using a dehumidifier or placing silica gel in fabric storage zones.
4. Air Out Your Home Regularly
Even during heavy rains, a lack of ventilation traps humidity inside your home.
What to do:
- Open windows when the rain stops or early in the day.
- Turn on fans to circulate air.
- Wipe down window sills to prevent water from seeping into the structure.
5. Schedule a Deep Cleaning
The rainy season is the perfect time to give your home a complete refresh. From hard-to-reach corners to moisture-sensitive surfaces, a deep clean can protect your home and your health.
