Your mom isn't being helpful, she is being controlling and overbearing. I wouldn't have her help you clean your home anymore. You need to start putting boundaries in place as it sounds like she steamrolls right over the top of you with little thought about how you might feel.
The comments of "oh she is just being helpful" tells me that you are a doormat and will continue to let your mom do what ever she wants to in your house because you are too scared to confront her.
Your relationship with your husband will suffer because of this as his resentment grows. If you don't have his back he will lose respect for you. BTDT.
The horror! Moving furniture? Using a disliked cleaning product?! THROWING AWAY A BROKEN MUG??? what will be next? She’ll buy a pack of single ply toilet paper?
The mom is a busybody and the DH is immature. But Op, aside from posting here, didn’t make it sound all that serious. I think some posters are projecting.
