Quick Home Detox: Disinfecting Often-Overlooked Areas

While whole-home detoxifications involving water filters and air purifiers are beneficial, focusing on frequently touched, often-overlooked surfaces is crucial for preventing illness. This quick home detox guide highlights areas needing regular disinfection:

1. Doorknobs: Wipe down weekly with a natural disinfectant to eliminate bacteria.
2. Dishcloths: Boil dishcloths daily in water with natural detergent to kill bacteria. Multiple cloths ensure a clean one is always available.
3. Water Taps: Rinse daily while washing hands to prevent recontamination.
4. Toilet Handles: Disinfect after each use with wipes or spray.
5. Mobile Phones/Tablets/Keys: Wipe with disinfectant wipes after use due to frequent contact with various surfaces.
6. Kitchen Countertops: Thoroughly wipe down to remove food particles and prevent decomposition.
7. Refrigerator: Clean monthly, paying attention to raw and cooked food separation to avoid cross-contamination. Don't forget the handles!
8. TV Remote: Disinfect regularly due to frequent handling.
9. Computer Keyboard/Mouse: Clean regularly to remove crumbs and germs.
10. Light Switches: Wipe down frequently touched light switches and lamps.
