The COVID-19 virus remains a threat everywhere, including Singapore.
Staying inside your home can reduce the risk of getting infected. Yet, if anyone in your house has to go outside, they are likely to bring home germs.
To avoid possible infection from COVID-19 or any disease-causing germs, you should disinfect your home regularly. Either you can do it yourself or get a professional disinfection service in Singapore.
What’s the difference between general cleaning and disinfecting?
Cleaning your home with soap and water removes dirt and debris from surfaces. It does not kill germs like bacteria and viruses. Disinfecting requires the use of germ-killing chemicals. You have to handle it cautiously to avoid incidents or injury. A disinfection specialist like Greencare can sanitize your home if you are not confident in doing it yourself.
Here are eight steps to clean and disinfect your home.
- Keep windows open for better
ventilation and lower the risk of infection.
- Wear protective gear when
disinfecting your home.
- Clean surfaces with a disinfectant
containing active ingredients suitable for COVID-19 disinfection.
- Use disposable rags for cleaning
and avoid spray packs that can spread the virus further.
- Wash fabrics like bed sheets,
blankets, and sofa covers in a washing machine with detergent.
- Wash hands with soap and take a
shower before changing your clothes.
- Avoid re-infection by opting for
contact-free delivery services when buying groceries and not hosting
visitors in your home.
- Wear a mask and gloves and carry a
hand sanitizer when going out.
