No matter how healthy your family is, occasionally they will get sick. Often that means the rest of the house gets sick. Covering your mouth when you sneeze isn’t enough. You’ll want to disinfect common places where people leave germs.
Clean Mama reminds of place we might forget to keep clean, but which can spread germs throughout the house. Some we’ve covered like cleaning the remote control, but those light switches and door handles spread germs as well.
They suggest a sanitising wipe or alcohol pad for a quick wipe down. When the kids are sick, it may be one of those rare times not to bug them to turn out the lights when they leave the room.
