#24: BRB, I’m Off to Clean the Doorknob
Regularly cleaning our doorknobs and light switches is a small but crucial aspect of maintaining a clean and healthy home environment. These surfaces are high-touch points, frequently handled by multiple people throughout the day, making them hotspots for the accumulation of dirt, grime, and germs. From this person’s experience as a maid, they noted that these areas are often overlooked in routine cleaning.
So, they can become covered in a noticeable layer of brown gunk – a mix of accumulated oils from skin, dust, and other particles. Yuck! A simple wipe-down with a disinfectant or a suitable cleaning solution can significantly reduce this risk, keeping these commonly used surfaces clean and hygienic. This habit, though small, can go a long way in the overall cleanliness of your living space.
