Locations that easily cause air pollution in the house
One of the inappropriate locations for placing a shoe cabinet is an area lacking light and ventilation. This is an ideal condition for bacteria and mold to grow, especially with shoes that are often damp due to sweat or the outside environment. When placing a shoe cabinet in a dark corner, these harmful agents can accumulate over time, affecting the air quality in the house.
In addition, placing the shoe closet right opposite the main door is also not recommended. From an environmental science perspective, the door is a place for air circulation between the outside and the inside. If you place the shoe closet here, dust, bacteria and odors from shoes are easily released through the airflow into the living space.
According to Professor John Smith - an indoor environmental expert at the University of California (USA), "shoes can carry bacteria, heavy metals and pollutants from outside. Placing them in the main airflow area can increase the risk of spreading harmful agents in the house.
Risks to health when placed in the wrong position
The bedroom is a place that needs to ensure clean air to serve sleep and restore the body. Placing a shoe cabinet in the bedroom can increase unpleasant odors and microorganisms in the air, thereby affecting the respiratory system, especially for sensitive people or people with a history of allergies.
Besides, shoe cabinets that are too high or open design are also not the optimal choice. High cabinets easily accumulate dust on the upper floors, are difficult to clean, while open cabinets cause bacteria and odors to spread directly to the surrounding environment.
Experts recommend using a closed shoe cabinet, placed in a ventilated area with moderate light and away from the main living space such as the bedroom. At the same time, it is necessary to clean periodically, ensuring shoes are dry before storage to limit the growth of microorganisms.
Shoe arrangement should also be scientific: clearly classify, avoid overlapping, and do not leave too many shoes in a closed space. This not only helps reduce odors but also limits the growth of bacteria.
In summary, choosing a reasonable shoe cabinet location not only helps make the living space neat but also plays an important role in protecting the health and improving the quality of life of family members.
