Over 80% of parents say spring hardest time to keep things clean

One in five parents would trade going on their yearly vacation to get out of spring cleaning.

A recent poll of 2,000 parent homeowners with kids under 17 found that, for many, spring isn’t all rainbows and butterflies.

In fact, 83% agreed that spring is the most difficult season to keep their homes clean, according to new research, Commissioned by Trane Residential for Allergy and Asthma Awareness Month in May, and conducted by Talker Research.

So how do parents balance parenting and cleaning? More than half (54%) said they’ll give up spending quality time with their child because their home needs cleaning.
