A Helpful Disinfecting Routine to Combat Coronavirus

Daily Disinfecting to Prevent Coronavirus

In the kitchen:

• Clean and disinfect countertops, sinks and taps, cabinet handles, appliance handles and cutting boards.
• Use dishcloths you can wash on the hot cycle. Replace towels and dishcloths every day.
• Clean spills and mess so they don’t attract more dirt and bacteria.
• Empty and spray your dirt bins with disinfectant, taking out any rubbish daily.

In the bathroom:

• Clean and disinfect the bathroom taps and handles.
• Empty waste bins and disinfect them daily.
• Spray the toilet and flush handle with disinfectant or sanitizing wipes.
• Do not use bath towels or wash clothes more than once to prevent the growth of germs, viruses and bacteria.

Weekly Disinfecting to Kill Coronavirus Germs

In the kitchen:

• If possible, spray oven and stove knobs with disinfectant.  Leave for a few minutes then wipe off.
• Clean and disinfect the kitchen sinks and drains.
  

In the bathroom:

• Wash your toothbrush holder and toothbrushes and disinfect them. If they are dishwasher safe, just run them through with your dishes.
• Clean and disinfect your bathtub and shower, including the shower doors and handles. If you have a shower curtain that is machine washable, throw it in the washing machine.

Other rooms:

• Wash bedding in hot water. Don’t shake out your blankets and sheets before washing to minimize the spread of dust and germs.
• Mop hard-surface floors and vacuum carpets.
• Disinfect computer keyboards and mice, light switches, cell phones and remote controls. Be sure to turn off the power on any electronics before cleaning or disinfecting.
