I figured out I would share 8 of the most interesting ones I came across, because who doesn’t like some fun fact trivia?!

1. kitchen sinks are the dirtiest in the home.

The kitchen and bathroom are two of the busiest places in the home, and Food particles that sit along with germ transfer while cooking and create a breeding ground for bacteria.  You must disinfect your kitchen atleast once a week. Bathroom toilets should be cleaned every day using a product along with a toilet brush. You can appoint a professional disinfection and cleaning service to get the job done in the best possible way!

2. Cleaning vs Disinfecting: What is the actual difference

Cleaning and disinfecting are actually two different things.

Overdoing disinfection and sanitization can actually lower your defense against them.

If your vacuum is starting to smell a little musty, drop some citrus or peppermint essential oil mixed with isopropyl in the canister and on the filters.
