How To Clean Your High-Touch Points
With hygiene and health being the main theme of 2020, people are looking for ways to keep their homes healthy and safe. We are seeing an increased interest in disinfectant products for that extra layer of protection against germs.
High-touch point cleans
While it is a good idea to kill germs around your home, less is actually more! Instead of doing a full house disinfectant clean a few times a week, focus on your the high-touch points.
If used correctly, disinfectants will kill 99.9% of germs they comes into contact with, however, not all germs around your house are bad. That’s where the high-touch point disinfecting comes in. These points around your home are more likely to carry harmful germs, bacteria and viruses as they are often touched with dirty hands that are carrying germs from being out and about for the day.
High-touch areas around your home you should be regularly disinfecting include:
• Doorknobs
• Light switches
• Remote controls
• Keys
• Mobile phones
• Faucets and taps
• Toilets
• Communal surfaces like tables and bench tops
