EVERY DAY

• Cleaning can play an important role in helping to
  keep certain illnesses at bay, especially as we
  approach flu and virus season something that
  even your doctor wont disagree with.
• While there are practices we can all adopt to
  prevent our germs from becoming someone elses
  germs and vice versa, such as covering our mouths
  when we sneeze or cough and regularly washing our
  hands with soap and water, keeping our homes
  clean can also help shield us from germs and
  bacteria that cause illnesses.

How clean should a home be?

• For a truly clean home, youre going to need to
  do more than simply wave a duster about the place
  and push a vacuum cleaner around once a week. A
  home thats clean enough to keep you healthy,
  requires the use of sanitizing products, regular
  cleaning of all frequently touched surfaces, and
  deep cleaning of other, commonly neglected areas
  of the home.
• To help you get your home clean enough to keep
  you healthy, here are some guidelines

Clean and service your HVAC

• Often used but not cleaned anywhere near as
  often, HVAC systems can be breeding grounds for
  mold and bacteria, which if left, can easily be
  transmitted around your home and aggravate
  symptoms of allergies and respiratory diseases.
• Schedule annual or bi-annual servicing and
  cleaning of your HVAC system to ensure it isnt
  playing host to a mold infestation, the spores of
  which will travel at ease whenever the system is
  in use.

5
Regularly sanitize handles, knobs and buttons

• Basically, anything that is touched on a regular
  basis (and often by multiple pairs of hands),
  such as drawer and door handles and knobs,
  buttons and dials on appliances or remote
  controls, and light switches, should be
  disinfected as often as is possible (without it
  becoming an obsession!). This becomes especially
  important if someone in the household is sick.

6
Launder items other than your clothes, laundry
and towels

• Busy households will often have washing machines
  that seem to be going non-stop, but theyre often
  full of clothes, bedsheets and towels. Have you
  ever stopped and thought about what might be
  lurking on stuffed toys (belonging to you, your
  kids or your pets), or hiding in plain sight on
  cushions and couch upholstery? If you have items
  that cant easily be thrown into the machine and
  washed, you can spray them with a disinfectant to
  stop any germs present from contaminating those
  using them. here is a simple but highly effective
  and 100 natural antibacterial solution you can
  make yourself
• Half a cup of white vinegar
• One cup of water
• 5 drops of your favorite essential oil

7
Confine germs where possible

• If one person in your household is sick and you
  have more than one bathroom in your home, try to
  have them use the same one to prevent spreading
  their germs to others. Of course, this space
  should still be cleaned frequently.
• If you have a shared family bathroom, however,
  youll simply have to step up your cleaning
  efforts until theyre no longer contagious, and
  ensure that faucets, surfaces and places like the
  toilet flush and light switches, are disinfected
  regularly.

8
Hire a cleaning company

• This is by far the best way to ensure that your
  home is as clean as it can be, at all times.
  While you cant eliminate every germ or spot of
  dirt in your home, hiring professionals will help
  keep the entire place as healthy and safe as it
  can possibly be, and with their knowledge and
  experience, theyll have plenty of tips and
  tricks up their sleeves to keep you and your
  family germ-free throughout the year.
• As we approach flu and virus season, why not do
  your bit to protect yourself and others in your
  home from getting sick or spreading germs, by
  stepping up your cleaning efforts a little? Dont
  have the time or patience for that? Simply hire a
  cleaning service and let them do it for you!
