Forgotten Germ Hot Spots

In our quest to maintain a clean and germ-free living environment, we often focus on the obvious areas, like bathrooms and kitchen countertops. However, there are numerous everyday items and spaces we tend to overlook and that you might find surprising! 👇


Phone: The Constant Companion 📱

When was the last time you cleaned your phone? Think about it – your phone goes everywhere with you, from grocery stores to public transportation. It's a magnet for germs, including bacteria and viruses. Regularly disinfect your phone with a gentle cleaning solution to keep the germs away.


Keys and Wallet: More Than Just Accessories 🔑

Keys and wallets are daily essentials, but they can also be teeming with germs. Studies have shown that cash, credit cards and even keys can carry various microorganisms, including pathogens like E. coli and salmonella. Take a moment to sanitize your keys, wallet and credit cards regularly to minimize the risk of transferring germs to your hands and other surfaces.


Bed: A Breeding Ground for Dust Mites 🛏️

Did you know that your bed could be home to 1.5 million dust mites? Regularly washing sheets and pillowcases, using reliable waterproof protectors, and hoovering your mattress can help keep these unwelcome guests at bay. Don't forget to wash your pillows every now and again and replace them when needed to ensure a clean and healthy sleep environment. You can find some more tips on getting rid of dust mites from your home here.

Shower Curtain: Overlooked and Laden with Germs 🚿

While you may be diligent about cleaning your bathroom, the shower curtain often gets overlooked. It can gather mould, mildew and bacteria. Check the care instructions and, if possible, toss it in the washing machine for a thorough cleaning.


Shoes: Tracking Bacteria Indoors 👞

Consider implementing a 'shoes-off' policy at home to minimize the bacteria and contaminants brought indoors. Studies have shown that the soles of shoes can carry alarming amounts of bacteria, including harmful strains, amongst other pretty gross stuff!


Door Handles and Light Switches: Frequently Touched, Often Forgotten 💡

Door handles and light switches are high-touch surfaces that can be full of germs. Regularly disinfect these areas, especially if multiple people share the space. A simple wipe-down with a disinfectant can go a long way in preventing the spread of germs in your home or workplace.


And finally, one especially important in the flu season...


Thermometers: Sharing More Than Just Temperature 🤒

Sharing a thermometer might seem harmless, but it can be a breeding ground for germs, especially during cold and flu seasons. Thermometers that come in contact with the body can easily transfer viruses and bacteria. If you share a thermometer, make sure to disinfect it thoroughly between uses, invest in single-use covers or consider having separate thermometers for each family member to prevent the spread of illness. It's a small step that can make a big difference in keeping your household healthy!


By paying attention to these often-forgotten germ hot spots, you can take proactive steps to create a cleaner and healthier living environment. Regular cleaning and disinfecting of these items and spaces will not only protect you from potential illnesses but also contribute to an overall sense of well-being in your daily life. Stay vigilant, stay healthy!
