Disinfect Your Home during Covid-19
A quick guide to help you disinfect your home during a pandemic.
Our homes are sacred spaces that we share with our families. Keeping it clean, germ-free is
essential to attract positive energy and manifest happiness. A happy home is a clean home.
Now, with COVID-19 turning our private spaces upside down, sanitization is crucial.
Germs live with us, whether we like it or now. But, with the pandemic, disinfecting surfaces
is crucial to keeping viruses at bay.
Cleaning v/s Disinfection
We often think that both mean the same thing. But it is not. While cleaning includes surface
removal of dirt, it does not necessarily kill the germs. With the help of disinfectants, you can
rid the area of harmful bacteria.
The Basics
Focus on the most commonly touched areas like switches, doorknobs, tables, and
countertops. Other areas that require regular cleaning are faucets, toilets, refrigerators, ovens,
cell phones, laptops, computer keyboards, etc. Clean other surfaces as and when needed.
Keep from an eye in the kitchen as the counter attracts oil and sticky substances.
According to the CDC, ‘cleaning with a household cleaner that contains soap or detergent
reduces the number of germs on surfaces and decreases the risk of infection from surfaces.’
A widely used home remedy of using hot water mixed with bleach or baking soda helps clean
sticky areas.
Use gloves when dealing with certain disinfectants to clean the area. Wash your hands after.
Cleaning a Covid-19 Home
When cleaning a home that has had the unpleasant company of the Coronavirus, always use a
mask and gloves. Clean surfaces that the sick patient touches every day like bedposts, toilet
basins, faucets, etc. Use warm water, soap, or any disinfectant to clean the surface. The
easiest solution is to leave the room locked for seven days and then begin the cleaning and
disinfecting processes.
