But, if you would like to know some of the spots and surfaces we clean, keep reading our house cleaning checklist.
Doorknobs
We usually touch doorknobs with our dirty hands, just by getting home from the grocery store or our jobs. That means you can expect these objects to be covered in germs. Remember to wipe them with a bleach-based solution as soon as possible.
Light switches
Another regularly touched object. Very easy to overlooked, light switches must be cleaned at least once a day, especially after returning home.
Faucets
You can’t wash your hands without touching the faucets. Be sure to wipe them properly like your light switches and doorknobs. In fact, these three surfaces are the things we touch with our hands dirty. Disinfect them in the same session to save some time.
Kitchen counters
What’s more important that cleaning where you cook or eat? Also, we usually put our grocery bags on the kitchen counters, contaminating them in the process. Have a clean cloth handy and your favorite bleach-based solution.
TV and game controllers
Everyone touches the remote control. Like all your electronic devices, it is better to clean up with an alcohol-based solution or aerosol.
Cellphone and PC accessories
We are so connected to our electronic devices that we can touch them unnoticed. Use the same alcohol-based solution or spray that you use for all other electronic devices. Take into consideration that we touch our cellphone multiple times during the day, and because of that is a good idea to disinfect it at least once a day.
Toilet handle and seat
Unless you have the strange habit of washing your hands before using the bathroom, it’s quite likely that your toilet is covered in germs and possible viruses. Usually, a bath is not cleaned daily, but during these pandemic times, it’s recommended you disinfect the handle and seat regularly.
Seat, back, and arms of chairs
Localize the most used chairs or couches in your home and disinfect them at least once a day. Also, be careful to sit down when you arrive home. Your clothes might be transporting germs and viruses from outside, and it’s important not to spread them on your home.
Bedroom sheets
If you take all precautions, like showering before bed and always having cleaned pajamas, you don’t have to worry much about this one. But, if you share a bed with someone, it’s better to change your sheets daily.
Clothes
Arriving home from shopping or work, we recommend you take off your clothes and put them away in a corner to avoid contaminating other surfaces. Depending on your level of exposure, for example, if you touch a lot of things with your hands or part of your clothes, wash them with warm water to be sure any germ and virus are eliminated.
Grocery shopping
Last but not least, don’t forget to trash all the packages you can and put your food in clean, plastic containers. If this isn’t possible, disinfect your packages properly with bleach or alcohol-based solution.
