A CLEAN SWEEP!
Tips for Getting the Job Done Right
- Disinfectants and disinfectant cleaners are the only products that kill germs, but only if the label
directions are
followed. Read and follow these directions as disinfecting products may vary in the way they need to be
used in
order to be effective.
- Clean dry surfaces when visibly dirty -- and at least daily in high-traffic areas.
- Clean and disinfect wet or moist surfaces daily -- like bathroom countertops, faucets and handles, toilet
bowls/seats/handles, door knobs, floors and diaper changing tables. Germs love these surfaces!
- Clean and disinfect food preparation or serving surfaces before preparing or serving food.
- Paper towels/disposable wipes are convenient because they can be thrown away -- and the germs go with
them!
- If
you use sponges or cloths, remember to launder them often, as they can pick up germs from the surfaces you've
cleaned. Use chlorine bleach in the wash water, and always allow the cloths and sponges to dry thoroughly
between uses.
Note: If washing cleaning cloths and sponges with a regular wash load of clothes, make sure all the
fabrics can be
safely washed with chlorine bleach.
