- Kitchen sponge or dishcloth: Bacteria love to grow on these items and the worst part is that when kitchen surfaces are wiped down, the bacteria is able to spread all over. To avoid this germ infestation, replace your sponges regularly and either run them through the dishwasher on the top rack or microwave them for 1-2 minutes in between replacements.
- Kitchen sink: Germs love to multiply in the kitchen sink so be sure to clean the sink and drain plug daily with a solution of bleach and water (one part bleach to 10 parts water).
- Salt and pepper shakers: Cold viruses love to congregate on these so wipe them down with a disinfectant wipe regularly.
- Coffee tables: Many of us come home after a long day and put our feet up on the coffee table while relaxing. This spreads many germs and bacteria from outside so leave your shoes at the door and disinfect coffee tables and other table surfaces.
