The rabbits are cute. Rabbit dust, not so much. They can endanger your safety. Dust rabbits can pose a fire hazard if they accumulate near electronic devices and plugs. When sparks fly, they can ignite and cause a fire. Regular dusting and vacuuming with a hose can significantly reduce the amount of dust around plugs and equipment. The places where rabbits grow and grow are like real rabbits the back of entertainment centers, behind offices, behind computer towers and cabinets and under beds. Take time to move and remove furniture before it gets out of control.

Surveillance camera sensors

Rosie's Certified Partner, Tekna Security & Smarthome, reminds us that cleaning sensors and surveillance camera lenses is an essential part of our security. Use a dry microfiber cloth, such as that available in a lens or optometry shop. Give the device a small burst of compressed air before cleaning.

"It's also a good idea to know if the lenses and covers on your camera are made of plastic or glass," said Jared Wright, a specialist in life safety at Tekna. "Most cheap cameras in the big stores will be made of plastic, like the headlights of your car, they'll turn yellow and oxidize after a year or two, and you can not do anything else, they'll never be" like new "again and the picture will be lower if you do not hold it. "

If you buy surveillance cameras, make sure all lenses and covers are made of glass and have a nominal temperature of 50 degrees Celsius or more (they come from China, where Celsius boxes are often used).

thermostats

Thermostats usually only need to be cleaned with light dust. If it is a touch screen, use a dry microfiber cloth. Some thermostats require a battery that needs to be changed from time to time. Further information can be found in the manual.

Remote controls and video game consoles.

The beloved remote control is one of the most contaminated objects in the germs of the house. Use disinfection wipes to delete all video and remote control commands. With a cotton swab and some alcohol sneak between the pimples. By the way: If you stay overnight in a hotel room, be sure to disinfect the remote with disinfection wipes and then wash your hands. At least at home, you know who touched the remote. Yes EWW !!!

TV and computer screens

For sieves that contain no oils or waxes, specially developed cleaners are available, eg. B. JAWS Just Add Water System Glass Cleaner . Gently spray on the screen. Clean the screen cleaner with a soft cloth or a microfibre cloth. Make sure that the cloth has no lint. Otherwise, add lint to your screens. Your screens are lint-free, dust and fingerprint safe.

Computer keyboard and accessories

Regardless of the hand wash, your fingers contain bacteria and oils that can clog the keys. Gently wipe the keyboard with a soft cloth while the computer is off. Carefully spray a cleaner on your cloth. Do not spray directly on the computer keys. You can also use practical wipes on these keyboards.

After cleaning the keyboard, use compressed air to spray between the keys. The air releases any residue that has fallen between the keys. You may need to clean the keyboard quickly. However, you can use a dry cloth at this point. Use to clean the computer accessories, such as As the mouse, the mouse pads and the covers, the same towels.

Keep drinks away from the keyboard and laptops. One of our staff can tell you from experience that sweet tea and keyboards do not go well together.

phones

Time magazine reported a study that found more than 17,000 copies of bacterial genes in students' mobile phones. University of Arizona scientists discovered that cell phones contain ten times more bacteria than most toilets. One of the worst places to use your phone is the bathroom. When draining toilets spread germs everywhere. Fecal bacteria such as E. coli can be found in telephones. Think about it the next time you borrow a phone.

To prevent your phone from becoming a Petri dish, clean it regularly using a similar method to computer screens. For home phones, use disinfectant wipes to remove bacteria from the device.

Test the smoke detectors and replace the batteries.

You want smoke detectors to work well in the event of a fire. What you do not want is to ring at 2am to let you know it's time to change the batteries. Test smoke detectors every month. If you do not remember when you changed the batteries, replace them now. Have a variety of new batteries ready.

The amount of dust, bacteria and germs that accumulate in our electronic devices is surprising. Get used to regular cleaning and avoid diseases and fires.
