Some household items since the Soviet Union so firmly established in the minds of some people that refuse them seems very complicated. But okay if they impair only the appearance of the home! Unfortunately, some household items, so beloved in the Soviet times, can cause serious harm to the human body. Let us examine it more closely in this material.
1. Soviet carpets
To paraphrase a famous saying: you can take a person from the USSR, but sometimes you can not take a person from the USSR. Soviet carpets on the floor and on the walls - a real calling card of the USSR. It turns out that now there is a foreign fashionable hobby - collecting photos of Soviet carpets in action (as an option - self against the background of the carpet).
If the carpet on the floor, you can somehow justify the household needs, it hangs on a wall carpet - this is a real exotic bomb USSR. This tradition has migrated from villages even before the revolution in the Soviet city of dwelling. carpet hanging targets on the wall were very different: "Krasivenko so", "Freshen up a room", "Save oboyki" (?), "Bedbugs" (???) etc. In practice the same bugs loved to live that these carpets as textiles - their natural habitat.
In the photo below - your humble servant at the age of 1 year, looking for a carpet so-called "ga" (creeping - Translation of children's language), namely the black dots left of the carpet bugs. Severe Soviet entertainment, do not say anything ...
But the process of knocking out the carpet in the snow or horizontal bars in the courtyards of foreigners and did consider it a magic ritual. Here are just Novate authors. Ru well remember what the black spots remained on the snow after such dislodging. All sadness is that this very black dust breathe daily those who on the floor in the rooms are old carpets. Dirt accumulates, and no vacuum cleaner (at least on a daily basis!) Will not help here.
Daily contact with the rugs on the floor can cause chronic allergies and asthma as well as infection with intestinal worms in humans and domestic animals. The modern market of building materials floor coverings offer for every taste and budget, which is pleasant to go barefoot or in slippers. In practical modern apartment should be only two mat - silicone to the bathroom and near the front door.
2. feather pillows
And on such beauty shown in the collage above, still asleep, some post-Soviet citizens. There are homes where the nest feather pillows, which has not been cleaned of 20-60 years. And it is truly awful. And not only because the natural fat over the years makes the pillow isolated from the bird's feather in the dirty mash-up, but also because the feather pillows live in the amounts estimated in billions, here are handsome ...
Meet in front of you image pen mite, magnified under a microscope. The impression is that it is traced with the help of computer graphics monster of modern horror fiction. But no, it is absolutely real being, which is in the colonies with millions of fellow lives in feather pillows and often leads to the fact that households are developing allergies and asthma. The harsh truth is that no loud advertising slogans on the windows of the studio cleaning feather pillows 100 percent will not help to get rid of these creatures because of their microscopic size. It's a publicity stunt, which should not be conducted. The only place for feather pillows nowadays - street container waste collection.
3. Soviet tulle and curtains
Unpresentable wooden window sill, window frame with blade paint and did not know for years washing gray (in last - white) kruzhevoobraznye tulle - so still it looks window area kitchens of some post-Soviet apartments. This is a real breeding ground for dust, in daily contact with which leads to allergies and asthma.
The dust also accumulates at the eaves of the dull curtains, and since there is very few people see it and wipe not always aware of. Author Novate. Ru was once conducted an experiment: the old Soviet curtains had been washed by hand in a basin with a preliminary daily soaking. After draining the water was black. But after washing was immediately carried out another wash. And you know what? The water in the basin was gray again. That is to wash the dust of a century is almost impossible. Draw your own conclusions. A container to the nearest waste collection is generally quite far off.
4. napkins everywhere
If a home everywhere decomposed textiles, in addition to the problem of accumulation of a century on it nevystiryvaemoy dust may also occur... flea population. This is especially true of apartments in the old brick houses, where there is a classic cellars with fifty years of history. Fleas or their larvae can be entered into the apartment of the soles of shoes, let alone settle in uyutnenko tekstilchike these jumpers will not be difficult. Fleas can cause dermatitis and people and pets, in addition, they are carriers of a number of very unpleasant disease.
The Soviet people due to constrained financial situation would try to cover up the napkin anything: a stain on furniture, peeling paint, a scratch on the surface. But the knock-out argument on why put a napkin in there somewhere, and there is something, it is certainly "To the dust were not". It remains simply shrug! But to remove the dust with a smooth surface is enough to brush away with a dry or damp cloth for cleaning. But with textile dust can only be washed! To house was harmless, it should be a minimum of textiles. Ideally, this is only a curtain and bedspread on the bed.
5. The dominance of Soviet statues
On someone's opinion it can, and cute. Here just let me to ask: who and how often wipes the dust from them or wash them under running water? The answer is usually the same: no one ever. Figurines - a huge collection of intricate surfaces, and they are covered with dust. To a room in which there are statues, was environmentally friendly, they should be washed under running water at least once a week.
The abundance of statuettes - an excellent opportunity to earn an acute or chronic allergic rhinitis. And if you feel sorry for them to refer to the trash, then only a couple of minutes of searching in Google will let you know the local data collector number of things (in the within just one block from the place of residence of your humble servant such collectors is published daily on the street as much as the receiving point three).
6. Bedding for your favorite cat
Earlier, when he wanted to sneeze, to the nose snuff-box tray. Now to help you clean your nose will help... litter for cats. When you see covered with lumps of matted cat hair podstilochku at the next window ledge or chair, and I want to ask: "And your cat she told you that this cloth - her favorite?"
Suffice it to conduct an experiment: put on the floor newspaper or a plastic bag. Your cat once it settles.
The secret is simple: cats just love... lie down on something. Then why not give preference to environmentally friendly cat litter sold in specialty pet stores? They are easy to clean and like pets.
Continuing the theme of this far and so near the mysterious Soviet Union - the material Why Soviet women spit in ink: life hacking, which would not have understood no foreigner.
