What’s the best way to disinfect your home? Here are some tips for how—and what—to clean during coronavirus:
from both the Centers For Disease Control and EPA, alcohol solutions with at least 70% alcohol or a bleach solution of at least four teaspoons of bleach per quart of water are effective for disinfecting surfaces of coronavirus.
Silverware: It isn’t just the knives and forks, but the silverware drawer that your fingers brush up against that you should take care to disinfect frequently. Don’t forget about the switches for bedside lamps, handles on drawers, curtain pulls or television remote controls.Any laundry that could have coronavirus germs should be handled with disposable gloves. And, since coronavirus is transmitted through airborne droplets, take care not to shake the laundry . If you don’t have enough disposable gloves then dedicate reusable gloves to coronavirus cleaning and use those for touching laundry.
Other wearables besides clothes need to be considered. Watches, jewelry, gloves and shoes are all likely to come in to contact with germs. Spraying your shoes—especially the tops and laces—with disinfectant and wiping your jewelry with a cloth that has an effective but non-abrasive cleaning solution will help prevent germs.Rubbing alcohol is a way to disinfect device surfaces without risking water damage.
