I would revise that to 'haven't used in over five months and probably won't use in the next seven'. There are items that are usually used only for 2-3 months of the year such as winter coats, snow-blowers, and swim-wear.
As for your other questions:
How often do you vacuum your house?
Whenever I am expecting company over. IOW, not often enough.
How often do you dust your house?
What is this dusting I keep hearing about? Seriously, I may dust individual pieces of furniture when the cat dander gets too thick, but that's it. I try to wipe things down if somebody with allergies is due for company.
How often do you take out the trash?
Whenever it needs to be emptied. Usually once a week. Immediately, if there is something the cat might find 'interesting' in the trash.
Do you have a trash can in every room of your house?
Yes.
How often do you do the dishes?
As needed. Usually 2-3x a week. Daily on weekends.
Are there any rules/algorithms that you follow that help you keep your house neat, spic and span ?
Don't have a cat? Sorry. I'm a bachelor. Besides, my house is a continuous con/destruction zone.
The balance or Feng-Shui of my place could use some work. Then again, the place is being worked on and I am in the middle of a move. I do keep my bedside table organized by keeping a small wicker 'in box' that I empty my pockets into when I get home from work. My glasses and wristwatch go into the basket as well when I'm not wearing them. When I get dressed in the morning, everything I need is right there in the basket.
