So, always avoid sweeping the house in the evening and at night. If you do, don't throw the garbage out of the house.

 Direction to keep the broom:

Vastu Shastra says that the broom should be kept in the southwest or west direction. But it should never be kept in the north direction, if it is kept in this direction, happiness and joy will disappear in the house. Apart from this, there will be obstacles in the progress of the people in the house.

Note :

When cleaning the house, first start sweeping from west to north. As per Vastu Shastra, only then will Goddess Lakshmi stay in your house. Similarly, after sweeping the house, put the garbage in the dustbin. If garbage accumulates in the house, poverty and misery will increase.

According to Vastu Shastra, never kick a broom with your foot.

Similarly, brooms should not be kept in the kitchen and two brooms should never be kept together.

If you follow the above mentioned things, you will surely get the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi and thereby a prosperous life.
