Is it dangerous not to clean?

In the long run, one could probably say that it is dangerous not to clean; over a shorter period, you are most likely not harmed by not cleaning.

 

One danger of not cleaning is that dust and particles can contain all sorts of things that may harm us; old plastic carpets and appliances containing flame retardants release substances that we do not want too much of in our homes.

Having rubbish, rotting items, old food, and so on at home can attract pests, and in addition to being unpleasant, rats can spread a range of diseases. 

Pinworms may not be dangerous, but they are extremely unpleasant, and young children of preschool age are often affected. Pinworms spread very easily, even through bed linens and toys, so you need to clean door handles and toys and wash bed linens and towels. 

 

Historically, soap has saved many lives, so cleaning and hygiene are certainly important.
