Now more than ever you have to be cautious and thorough when you're going through the process of cleaning your property. Although the existing information about how this thing is transmitted varies one thing everyone agrees on is that this can be transmitted through contact with contaminated surfaces. Basic cleaning processes are not so effective in dealing with the virus. To properly clean your property there are some best practices you can follow.
● Make Use of Soap and Water
Before the pandemic cleaning with just water would have sufficed but considering we are in a pandemic, you have to take some extra cleaning measures. Soap is an effective defense against pathogens and bacteria that we cannot see. It breaks down the chemical bond that helps viruses stick to surfaces and causes them to lose their potency. That’s why since the onset of we’ve been advised to wash our hands. Cleaning with soap is the basic step to keeping your property safe from bacteria.
● Do not use unregistered disinfectants
Unregistered disinfectants may be ineffective and prove useless in reducing the potency of bacteria. Unregistered disinfectants may be toxic and unsafe to use, as they’re not regulated or approved by any federal body. Because of the rise in demand for disinfectants, many companies have concocted diverse products with chemicals that are not verified. Using them can put you and your surroundings at risk. Only disinfectants registered with the EPA (the United States Environmental Protection Agency) are suitable for use.
● Go beyond the norm and try Electrostatic Spraying
For big and small properties an electrostatic sprayer is the most effective method of disinfection. An electrostatic sprayer combines the disinfectant with air and uses an electrode inside its sprayer to give the disinfectant an electric charge. The disinfectant becomes positively charged and bonds with surfaces that are negatively charged. This helps the disinfectant coat thoroughly and kill any pathogen on surfaces. This method has been used for years in other industries so it is tried and tested. Like in the car manufacturing industry, it is used to ensure that paint gets to every hidden corner of the car. Bringing this technique into disinfecting has been really effective in curbing the spread.
● Use a professional cleaning service
Cleaning services relieve you of the stress of doing it yourself. Especially for big properties, cleaning might take time and involve a lot of attention to detail. Some cleaning services like Clean Group even have a special cleaning process using electrostatic spraying. This deep cleaning method rids your property of any hidden bacteria that normal cleaning procedures may not tackle. Using a cleaning service not only saves you stress but also ensures that your property is 100% disinfected. A cleaning service offers many options for cleaning and disinfecting that you may not have if you chose to do it on your own.
Disinfecting your property is an important step in reducing and preventing the spread of virus. Following these best practices will ensure that you maintain a virus-free property. Protecting yourself, your building, and its occupants is key in these times.
