Follow these tips to beat the bugs this flu season

Cold, flu, bronchitis or virus affected several Georgian media. I know that it is difficult to think of the flu season, when the outside temperature is around 70 degrees, but are still in the flu season.

To prevent the disease, should take appropriate precautions.

First we need to wash your hands. Most of us do not wash their hands, but not properly. Hands should be washed for 20 seconds with warm water and soap to get clean effectively. Moreover, contrary to what they think, my children, hand sanitizers are not a substitute for hand washing. Disinfectant, in the case of soap are used, and water, which they are not available, but soap and water is more preferable.

There are different levels of "clean". You are probably wondering what is the difference? Cleaning is the process of removing physical dirt. Eliminates not the germs, fungi and other harmful bacteria that make us sick. Purification is carried out carried out with soap and water usually. It is also the lowest level of "clean".

If someone was sick at home, you may want a higher level of cleanliness. Disinfection, for example, the process is nuclei in such quantities that the disease does not occur to reduce. This process often involves the use of a disinfectant solution. Most of us use to reach a solution of bleach and water, this level of cleanliness.

The most important bleaching is to remember that less is better. To make a disinfectant solution, bleach recommends the Environmental Protection Agency of the United States of America 1 half teaspoon to 1 liter of water. If you want to go green, you can vinegar or hydrogen peroxide are used for disinfecting. The EPA suggests that 1/2 cup hydrogen peroxide or vinegar is used in a spray bottle.

To disinfect surfaces effectively, remember to clean the surface and then apply the disinfectant solution. This may be a small step, but to get rid of bacteria and other pathogens that could make us sick, it is essential.

Disinfection is the third and highest level of cleanliness. My daughter had a virus 24 hours. To prevent the spread of the whole family, washed with linen in water and hot disinfectant wipes were used in door handles, remote controls, light switches, doorknobs toiletries and other place that I think could possibly they could harbor bacteria that cause disease.

Proper disinfection - as long as towels, bleach and water or spray is used - is crucial. The EPO says: "In order to achieve the desired degree of disinfection has to be applied to a given concentration for a certain time the chemical."

Disinfection is a two step process. First step: clean the surface. Second step: allow the disinfectant "dwell time" (the amount of time that must be a zone in contact with the disinfecting solution to kill harmful bacteria). In other words, wipe, spray or disinfectant solution on a clean surface and let stand. If you want to use a chemical disinfectant, instructions currently be in the package.

Do not forget, door handles, handles cases, lamps, shelves, keyboards and phones. They are for hosting "repulsive" bacteria known.

I hope these tips will help you and your family to hit the error of this flu season.
