Where And How To Disinfect According To HomeSquad, The Leading Home Cleaning Services In Dubai

 

Where	How
Any High Touch Surfaces A high touch surface is any surface in your home that is touched frequently.  For example, doorknobs, any handle, light switches, fixtures, back of chairs, tabletop, laundry area, remote controls, electronic devices, or countertops.	Mark high touch surfaces and flat non-porous surfaces of your home. Disinfect them regularly with any disinfectant with at least 70% alcohol content as suggested by the CDC.
Electronic Devices Since electronic devices can easily catch dust and dirt, they can go through an everyday volley of germs and dirt that can make you sick.	Use a microfiber towel to wipe rubbing alcohol onto the surface of electronic devices. Rubbing alcohol eliminates the risk of water damage to your electronic devices as it evaporates quickly.
The Kitchen One of the top places in your home where germs can hang out. Moisture locks can be the breeding place for bacteria and viruses.	Sanitize shelves and drawer handles, utensils, refrigerator door handles, and reusable grocery bags regularly at least with good dishwashing soap and water.
Bedrooms Bedrooms are where you start and end the day. Thus, bedrooms have a high chance of getting caught by germs.	Wash your pillowcases frequently with a few drops of any disinfectant liquid. Empty the trash regularly, and pay more attention to high touch areas.
Bathrooms If you are sharing bathrooms with other family members, then HomeSquad, the home cleaning services company in Dubai recommends disinfecting high touch areas inside bathrooms after every use if possible.
