There are two types of people with basements. Type ones treat the basement as a part of their house and a space functional for them, just like any other room. Type two are the ones who have all their stuff, junk, and old things stored away in there and use that space as a storage unit. Once you start visiting the basement less often, the space automatically becomes junk for your house. Before you go about and become type two, here are some benefits that you should know of which will encourage you to keep your basement clean and clutter-free.
Say no to pests
Pests, spiders, and mice seek a quiet and dark space to grow their nests. So save yourself from pests and such living things from taking over areas of your houses. The clutter sitting in the basement may seem harmless, but the moisture and mold building up in it encourage pest growth, and eventually, you’ll end up having to call for pest control help. Your valuables could also be at risk of being chewed away and getting moldy no matter how well and tightly they are packed away. Finally, if your basement stays closed for a long time, it will build up the humidity in there, and a foul smell will start to rise through your living space.
Mental health
Cleaning out your basement can help keep your mental health stable. Tossing out old and unwanted things gives a feeling of cleansing, and that means both physically and mentally. To some people, cleaning is therapeutic and helps them in keeping their minds at ease and at at at at peace. The cleaning process also allows you to reconnect with old valuable and sentimental things tossed at the very back.
Spread the benefits
You will have many things that you no longer want at a certain point, and you have multiple options to deal with them efficiently. You can not only sell used or unwanted items but also donate them. It’s mutually beneficial to you and those who will be receiving your items. What may not be helpful to you could be to someone else
More living space
Your basement can function as a whole new space, which means you can turn that space into anything you want. There’s a whole new horizon for you to extend your living space. With the basement being a little closed off, you can turn it into your home theatre or a gaming room. With some furnishing and finishing touches, you can make the new space a part of your house which is as functional as any other space. Imagine what you can do with all the extra footage.
