So that we can all live in peace and quiet in a beautiful and, above all, clean home, it helps to know where exactly most of the bacteria in the household are.
Often the unwanted roommates - also called germs - do not appear in the places where they are expected.
Bacteria are everywhere. They are in the air, in the water and they are also on us. Most of them are harmless, many we even need and are vital, yet some can also cause diseases.
Below is an overview of which places deserve special attention and also what can be done about it.
1. kitchen
The kitchen is home to a particularly large number of bacteria.
Cleaning sponges
The cleaning sponge: one of the biggest germ factories in the kitchen. This is because they provide the perfect conditions. They are often damp, are not replaced for a long period of time and still appear to be clean.
There can be millions of germs in a single sponge within a short time.
When cleaning with the kleandrop loofah sponge, the following procedure can be followed:
- Place the sponge occasionally and completely soaked for 20 seconds in a microwave oven to kill bacteria
- Put the sponge in a water-vinegar mixture (50/50) for 2min and thus clean it
- Rinse with cold water after each use, this already prevents germ formation significantly
Towels
Towels are also germ-spreaders; they are often used for longer periods by different people. Therefore: Replace towels regularly and wash at 60°. Maybe even with our kleandrop heavy-duty detergent?
Cutting boards
The cutting board should not be forgotten either. By the way, plastic cutting boards are not more hygienic than wooden ones. It may also be worth considering separating cutting boards for raw vegetables from cutting boards for meat and fish.
Refrigerator
Unfortunately, there are also many germs in the refrigerator. On average, there are more than 10 million germs per square centimeter. For comparison: on a toilet seat, on the other hand, only about 100!
Reason enough to clean it once again with the kleandrop kitchen cleaner?
This is due to the often too high temperaturein refrigerators. It should never be above 8°. In addition, there is the condensation that forms in refrigerators, in which most germs are found.
A significantly lower risk is taken if food is always kept sealed or packaged in the refrigerator.
2. bathroom
Hygiene should not and must not be neglected in the bathroom either. Unfortunately, the cleaning routine can not simply be done after cleaning the toilet be ended. Especially the shower should not be neglected. Because in shower heads and silicone joints also prevail wonderful conditions for bacteria.
joints often look clean, but the cleaning of this should by no means guess into oblivion. Regular and conscientious cleaning with kleandrop bathroom cleaner is a wonderful way to counteract this.
In this sense, once again - happy kleaning to YOU from the entire kleandrop team ❤️
