Cleaning Best Practices

Here are some best practices for cleaning that can be applied at home, in schools, and at work. By implementing these best practices, you can maintain a clean and healthy environment for yourself, your family, and those around you.

• Use Appropriate Cleaning Products

  Selecting the right cleaning products is crucial to achieve optimal cleanliness. Different surfaces and materials require specific cleaners to avoid damage. Understand the properties of cleaning products and their appropriate uses. It’s why I recommend doTERRA On Guard®. It’s an eco-friendly and non-toxic alternatives to minimize environmental impact and potential health hazards.

• Follow Proper Dilution Guidelines

  Many cleaning solutions need to be diluted with water before use. It is vital to follow the manufacturer's instructions for dilution ratios. Using an incorrect ratio can result in ineffective cleaning or even damage to surfaces. Always measure accurately to ensure the desired results.

• Use Correct Cleaning Techniques

  Utilizing proper cleaning techniques ensures thorough cleaning while preventing the spread of contaminants. Some general cleaning practices include:

  Start from the highest point and work your way down to prevent re-contaminating lower surfaces.

  Use separate equipment for different areas to avoid cross-contamination.

  Wipe surfaces in a consistent motion, such as from left to right or top to bottom.

  Use microfiber cloths or disposable wipes specifically designed for cleaning to trap dirt and bacteria effectively.

• Pay Attention to High-Touch Areas

  Certain surfaces and objects accumulate more germs than others due to frequent contact. Focus on cleaning and disinfecting high-touch areas regularly, such as doorknobs, light switches, countertops, and shared electronic devices. These areas should receive extra attention to reduce the risk of germ transmission.

• Allow Sufficient Drying Time

  Proper drying is essential to prevent the growth of bacteria and mold. After cleaning, allow surfaces to air dry completely before using them again. Moisture left behind can become a breeding ground for microbes, undermining your efforts to maintain a clean environment.

• Practice Personal Hygiene

  Remember to prioritize personal hygiene while cleaning. Wash your hands thoroughly before and after the cleaning process to avoid spreading germs. If using gloves, change them regularly and avoid touching your face while wearing them. Personal hygiene contributes to the overall cleanliness and safety of the environment.

• Regularly Inspect and Replace Cleaning Tools

  Cleaning tools, such as mops, cloths, and brushes, can become breeding grounds for bacteria if not cleaned and replaced regularly. Routinely inspect and clean your cleaning tools to prevent the spread of contaminants. Replace worn-out or damaged tools promptly to ensure effective and efficient cleaning.
