Others have pointed out that she does more.

But this misses part of the point.  Harry understands 
that 'cleaning' in a house that has been occupied by dark wizards is 
more akin to a war.

Cleaning No. 12 Grimmauld Place is *important* in the context of a 
conflict with Voldemort, when his former sympathisers lived there.  
It's not Molly's fault that the entity that mattered in the end was 
Kreacher, and not an artefact resembling Riddle's diary.

Molly has taken on a responsible defensive role in relation to the 
wider purposes of the Order.
