The COVID-19 pandemic has made sanitizing as basic as taking a shower. Besides, sanitizing is the simplest way to keep yourself safe from germs. You should sanitize when before you enter a public place. Sanitize as you leave any public premises. Always carry a sanitizer when you leave your house. After all, sanitizing has become a top priority in 2021: here’s how to do it right:

Sanitize Comprehensively

It’s not enough to sanitize your hands. Your shoes and feet can also carry germs and put you at risk of contracting COVID-19. Based on the information at https://www.healthysole.com/, you should also sanitize your shoes. There are many forms and types of sanitizers. While hand rubs are the most common type of sanitizer, there are UV-based sanitizers. These sanitizers can lower the spread of germs in public places. Therefore, after you use a hand rub to kill the germs on your hands, use UV sanitizers to kill the germs you may carry on your shoes.

UV sanitizers use direct UV rays to kill bacteria and germs. These sanitizers are capable of destroying the outer proteinous layer of viruses like coronavirus and thus make the viruses ineffective. However, UV sanitizers only work on surfaces and items that can receive direct UV light. Otherwise, germs may remain hidden under your phone’s cover as these parts do not receive direct UV rays.

UV sanitizers exist in different forms. You can use UV wands, UV sanitizing cases, or UVC lamps commonly known as germicidal lamps. Choose an appropriate UV sanitizer based on what you want to disinfect. Also, consider the amount of space you have for the sanitizer.  You can use UV wands on surfaces you are cleaning. Alternatively, you can slide the wand into a UV sanitizing pouch.

UV sanitizers are more effective when they are within the location of the item or surface you want to disinfect. Take note of the duration of the UV sanitizer and the dose. For instance, most UVC lamps used at home have a lower dose. Consequently, these sanitizers might take too long to inactivate viruses or bacteria based on the exposure of the surface that has the germs.

Target The Germs

The sole purpose of sanitizing is to kill invisible germs. Germs can hide so you must know where they hide. Specifically, target the hideouts where you suspect germs might be hiding.  Spray sanitizers can help you reach these hidden surfaces which you may not see with your naked eyes. Sanitize your remotes and disinfect all the toys. Germs are small organisms that you might not see without the help of a microscope. So choose a sanitizer that can reach all the germs hideouts.

Check the CDC-recommended UVC sanitizers and check which viruses different sanitizers can kill. Depending on the viruses you want to disinfect surfaces against. Choose a suitable disinfectant. As you sanitize, pay attention to surfaces in which germs may hide. Thoroughly sanitize all the high-touch surfaces like doorknobs and computer keyboards.  Since you often touch these surfaces they most likely carry a lot of germs.

You touch your phone uncountable times a day. Sometimes you may not remember to clean your hands before you touch the phone. This makes it a high germ carrier. To kill these germs you must deep clean your cell phone. After sanitizing your hands, grab a microfiber cloth and spray some sanitizers onto the cloth. Clean your phone with a wet cloth to prevent damaging your screen.  Remove any case on your phone and clean it. Let your phone dry before you use it.

Use Verified Handrubs

The process of sanitizing involves two major components; the sanitizer itself and some friction. Therefore before you sanitize, ensure you do not have any organic matter on your hands. Remove dirt before applying a sanitizer to your hands. Afterward, apply a reasonable amount of sanitizer to your palm. Rub your hands together while covering all the surfaces of your fingers and hands. Rub your hands until you realize that your hands have absorbed all the sanitizer. An effective sanitizer should have at least 70% alcohol and should have relevant ingredients.

Sanitizers can help you prevent diseases caused by germs if you use them appropriately. Use the right procedures of cleaning your hands of any organic elements before applying hand rubs. Choose suitable UV sanitizers based on the surfaces you want to sanitize. Remember to comprehensively sanitize otherwise forgetting your light switches can increase your chances of contracting COVID-19.
