Very bo liao to be writing this in the middle of the night. But I really wanna grumble about this! The physics that lead to this situation is really mind-boggling!
In the past, I hardly did any vacuuming or mopping and left it to the part-time cleaner instead (she comes once a week). And I felt that, yep the house was a bit dusty lah.
After a certain comment by Hubby a few weeks ago, I started to vacuum every morning and to mop the house every night. Gotta separate the two cos it would be futile to mop the house in the morning when the two boys would just destroy it again the next moment, and it's too loud to vacuum after the boys are in bed.
But but but.. the house seems to be dirtier nowadays! How could that possibly be..?? It should be at least 3x cleaner than before mah! *sulk*
Possible reasons:
The floor detergent attracts dust & dirt. It's a ploy by the manufacturers to make the floor dirty again fast fast so that we have to use more detergent to mop.. then it gets dirty again.. then we mop.. and the vicious cycle continues.
Dust & dirt are more noticeable when it's a thin layer. As it accumulates, the properties change and we can no longer feel it so obviously.
Or maybe, having put in more effort to clean the house, I have become more sensitive to anything that ruins my efforts.
I think the first reason is the most likely. *sulk some more*
