Household items that are used daily can be breeding grounds if not cared for.

There is no better time for general house cleaning than when everyone is in quarantine. In the current situation of COVID-19, everyone is on guard and trying to be as germ-free as possible. Many focus on important topics, but the small things also count.
People should be aware of the household items they use every day. They can potentially become breeding grounds if they do not receive enough attention. Find out how to properly clean towels, pillow cases, etc.
Deyan Dimitrov, CEO of Laundryheap, is interested in taking a look at his best cleaning tips. It turned out that people often forget to wash their tea towels and kitchen gloves.
We usually eat three times a day. It's the same frequency with which we do the dishes. If you use tea towels three times a day, it becomes damp and can cause harmful pathogens such as E-Coli and Salmonella.
Dimitrov suggests hanging them up to dry after each use. If possible, it is better to hang it in the sun to further eliminate bacteria and viruses. After using it during the day, leave it in the laundry to wash it and get a new one for the next day.
To remove heavy stains from your tea towel, suggest placing the leaves in warm water, a tablespoon of baking soda, and a cup of white vinegar. Wash towels well. Studies show that vinegar does n't know the most reliable disinfectant that is available , but still has properties that kill certain germs.

Don't forget your potholders
Every baker knows that cooking is fun, but cleaning up the mess he has created is no fun. Kitchen gloves are one of the things that people no longer clean after a certain period of use. Dimitrov recommends placing them in warm water with white vinegar to remove the fat and remove stains.
During this pandemic, the pillows and their covers must be washed. Most importantly, as they come into contact with your face. Pillowcases can be washed as usual, but for extra care you can add half a cup of white vinegar to the last rinse.
He also recommends washing pillows and bedding as they tend not to wash. The best way would be to have them dry cleaned often as they don't fit standard washing machines.
Refresh your carpets by sprinkling baking soda on them.

If your mat is not suitable for the machine, have it cleaned by a cleaning service. It frees you from your hands. But if you'd rather save a few dollars, use baking soda.
Sprinkle everything on the carpet. It would be better to do it outside. Vacuum the entire carpet after 30 minutes.
When you get home, you absolutely need to change. Outerwear should never be worn indoors, much more in the living room or bedroom.
Coats and jackets should be washed according to the clothing label. Dimitrov says he can cool them down between washes with equal parts of water and white vinegar.
