How Often Do You Need To Disinfect The House?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), one must disinfect their house regularly to deal with COVID-19. Clean and disinfect bathroom, rooms, kitchen, lawn, and balcony at least once a week.

To protect your house during coronavirus, disinfect the high-touch-areas that include door handles, water tabs, remotes, phone, Almira, and switchboards. A person touches these surfaces frequently in a day, and chances are other family members are touching them too. Hence, it is essential to clean them daily.

What Things Do You Need To Disinfect The House?

It depends on which type of surface you are going to clean, whether it is the hard surface like floor, tiles, slabs, skins, and walls, or soft surfaces like curtains, carpets, beddings, furniture, and upholstery.

For hard surfaces, you can use regular cleaning soap or liquid wash by directly putting the small amount of cleansing agent and wash it with normal water. If required, you can place small droplets of the liquid washer on the paper towel to clean the surface.

Soft surfaces need special disinfectants as they need to store their color and texture. First, wipe off the dry dust particles with vacuum or broom and then apply the cleansing agent suitable for the carpet, curtains, or upholstery.

Advice: Use gloves and wear a mask during the cleaning process. Dispose of them after every use.
