TIPS FOR DISINFECTING YOUR HOME

The thing about viruses is they can live anywhere from hours to days on certain surfaces. But, have you ever stopped to consider exactly which areas of your home need to most attention?

If you want to disinfect your home efficiently, you should focus on the following “high traffic” use objects and areas:

Smartphones — Your phone is not only handled often, but it also travels with you both in and out of the house.

Handles — From the front door to the bathroom, into the kitchen and more, there are handles being used to open and close cabinets, doors, the microwave and refrigerator.

Light switches — Off and on all day long, especially in common areas, these switches can pick up and pass around a host of germs.

Countertops — Kitchen counters should be wiped down after each use and don’t forget the bathroom counters as well.

Tables — Similar to your countertops, any eating surfaces, and other surfaces that see constant use, should also remain sanitized.

Toys — Especially with a baby or toddler in the home since they tend to still put things in their mouth.

Remotes — Consider the amount of hands that touch your TV remote each day and you’ll understand why it needs a good wipe down.

Keyboards — With many working remotely now, keyboards can also be a haven for viruses and germs.

Mattresses — Yes, even soft surfaces, such as your mattress and bedding, need to be disinfected!
