It's like a germ party with bacteria like staphylococci, streptococci, and other nasties hanging out there. Yikes!
To keep it clean, try disinfecting it at least once a week. If it's a shared keyboard, maybe bump up the cleaning frequency a bit. Grab some wipes with 70% alcohol and give it a good wipe-down. And hey, don't go thinking higher alcohol percentages are better – they just evaporate too fast to do the job properly.
2. **TV Remote:** Be honest now, when was the last time you cleaned your TV remote? 📺
With everyone in the family pawing at it daily, it's a breeding ground for germs. Grab some alcohol wipes or a damp microfibre cloth with alcohol and give it a quick wipe every day. Your remote – and your peace of mind – will thank you!
3. **Bathroom Tap:** Okay, brace yourself for this one. The bathroom tap – you know, the one you touch right after doing your business – is a germ magnet. 😬
It's like a party spot for bacteria like e. coli and other not-so-pleasant types. Studies even show that homes with kids and pets tend to be germier! So, maybe give that tap an extra scrub when you're cleaning the bathroom.
Stay clean, stay healthy, and remember to give those sneaky germ hideouts a good scrub every now and then!
Germs are everywhere–in the air, water, soil and even in food. These include viruses, but also bacteria, fungi and other gross stuff that can infect us.

The restriction on giving blood in response to the outbreak of ‘Mad Cow’ Disease in the UK (restricting anybody who lived in the UK between 1980 and 1996 from giving blood) was lifted 29 February 2024.
So, for the first time in over 30 years I donated blood last Tuesday. I am again able to give a priceless gift that may very well save a life – and all for just 1 hour of my time.
So, for whatever reason you haven’t given and would like to, I encourage you to find out more about how you can donate.
There is a lot of info on the NZ Blood Website.

Ever heard of the 3-box exercise? It's a super easy way to sort through your stuff. Get three boxes and label them: keep, donate, and trash. Then, go through your clothes and toss each item into the appropriate box. If you're unsure about something, ask yourself if you've worn it in the last six months. If not, it might be time to let it go! This trick works wonders not just for clothes, but also for decluttering your garage.
Another option? Consider hiring a skip bin. Having a big bin right in front of you makes it so much easier to toss things out. No more putting off the decluttering - just toss it in and watch your space open up!
Hope these tips help make your decluttering journey a breeze!
