Does anybody ever clean there walls? Do you find it necessary? Or do you just clean if it looks dirty with finger prints, food ect? I don't do it unless it looks really dirty. I was just wondering if others found it to be too much of a cleaning obsession or necessary.

I wipe the walls when there are finger prints on them (which seems to be all the time)

I like to use the white eraser sponge on the baseboards- it keeps clean them and keep them nice and white.

i', pretty bad about this. I only clean the walls when a holiday or event like a birthday or barbeque is near. I do regularly wipe down the doors though. They seem to get really dirty really quick. when I do clean the walls I clean them with either the magic eraser or clorox wipes.

I spot check as I go along, I have never had to clean an entire wall...when I see a smudge or fingerprint, I clean it right off.

I check the walls once a month and swipe down any fingerprints, smudges or food particles.

Spring cleaning and when I notice fingerprints, etc. My dog lays up against the wall and I'm constantly trying to wipe those spots off.

Isn't that why they make paint? LOL!

Yes, I am constantly wiping precious finger and handprints off doors and walls.

Besides the constant cleaning of the fingerprints and smudges, I clean walls and ceilings twice a year.
