As we approach the festivies, cleaning routines and home maintenance might not be at the forefront of your mind — unless you take your hosting responsibilities very seriously. What I can guarantee, however, is that washing off your Christmas tree won't come into the equation. The question is, should it?

Unless you're unboxing a brand-new artificial tree, dust, dirt, and other debris are guaranteed. And, even once a brand new tree is up, those bushy boughs quickly become a magnet for yet more grime.
