The only practical way to know how much audible junk you've got going on in your space is to record some and then find a truly quiet space to listen to it in.
And I think it's healthy and sanity-preserving to ask yourself what your goal is. Is it to work out arrangements, or practice, or show people on a forum like this one something you've worked out? Or are you "making a record?"
