Keeping Your Home Clean & Disinfected

 There are many surfaces and areas that need to be routinely cleaned. If you are wondering how you can keep your home and family safe, there are a few steps everyone can take to create a clean and safe environment.

 

Here are a few tips for cleaning and disinfecting your home’s surfaces:

High Traffic Areas

Although it is important to clean your whole home, it is especially important to pay attention to the high-traffic areas. Places like your doorway, kitchen, bathroom and living room are areas where people spend the most time. It is best to clean these spaces daily. The kitchen and bathroom are two of the most used rooms in most homes. Be sure to thoroughly disinfect countertops, and other surfaces to ensure they are clean. 

Frequently Used Items

There are a few items that are used constantly or very often throughout the day. It is important to routinely clean and disinfect these items. 

Here are some items that should be disinfected: 

  • Keyboards
  • Cellphones
  • Doorknobs
  • Remote Controls
  • Game Controllers
  • Railings 

Disposal of Trash 

Decluttering your home is a great way to remove unneeded items and reduce the amount of surfaces for dirt and germs. Remove trash like food and containers and other waste frequently. This will also reduce the chances of critters  in your home like ants, cockroaches, and rodents.
