‘Slow vacuuming’ is the only way I’m vacuuming my home this May – and experts explain why you should be doing it too

Vacuuming is such an easy cleaning task that most of us just whizz through it as quickly as possible. However, experts say that switching up your technique at certain points in the year can benefit you and your home... especially if you choose the ‘slow vacuuming’ technique.

No home would be complete without one of the best vacuum cleaners. And while they’re a year-round appliance that gets more use than any other, there’s a high chance that you find yourself vacuuming more in the spring and summer months. That’s because open windows, increased airborne pollutants, and brighter light levels bring in (and show up) hidden dust and dirt in the home.
