Sanitizing and Disinfectants, Oh My!

Updated 12/09/2021:

  

Disinfectant (according to Wikipedia) is a- Antimicrobial agent that is applied to non-living objects

(compare: antisepsis) to

reduce the number of

microorganisms (unwanted

germs and parasites) on

them

Dictionary version

sanitize

VERB

make clean and hygienic; disinfect.

Those words basically describe the same outcome. Just different types of chemicals that the manufacturer decides to use. It’s based on the chemical itself. 

When cleaning, you can use any product to clean. Sometimes plain water will at least clean. If you want to protect the surface and be sure you have squished germs, it would need a chemical of some sort to kill them. Which would entail a second product to wipe over the same surface. Instead, try to look for a product that provides both. Cleaner with disinfectant. One product that does it. Spray and wipe. Your surface is now clean and sanitized. 

I use a specific product on all my desks, glass, mirrors, phones and door handles so I am able to clean and disinfect in one swoop. 

I also have products that I use in a fogging machine or can wipe onto the surface that kills all germs including coronavirus that I spray after cleaning/disinfecting. 

Please do not forget certain essential oils have microbial abilities if you’d like to go green, or organic rather than using a harsh chemical. 

For example, tree tree oil is a very effective essential oil to use in disinfecting, along with several others. Just mix some drops in with water and a spray bottle. Instead of water, you could switch to apple cider vinegar, white vinegar or rubbing alcohol (not all 3, only one to mix with water and essential oil drops) and many years ago I actually did a 50/50 blend of water and rubbing alcohol to sanitize desks and phones. It was fantastic on mirrors too! 

Either route you decide to take, the surfaces needs cleaned prior to the chemical to be 100% effective. Will the chemical work on its own? absolutely! However if it’s a truly dirty surface it must be cleaned prior to disinfecting/sanitizing.

Personal Space

Updated 10/26/2021:


Welcome to my first blog! Thank you for taking the time to read my blog post, I hope that you will leave with a better understanding of the importance of keeping our personal spaces and workspaces clean, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. As of this writing, the CDC’s guidance, with respect to COVID-19, is for us to wash our hands and stay 6 feet apart (regardless of vaccine status). However, as a cleaning professional who has seen how sickness can take hold over a whole environment, there’s more we can do to keep our work and personal spaces clean.


In your own space at work, in your home, or in your vehicle, you should:

  • Try to keep some sort of cleaning wipes on hand, or a disinfecting cleaner and paper towels. You may not realize that the average desk carries more germs than a public toilet seat! I bet you didn’t know that. Handling of coffee, using methods of payment, typing on a keyboard, operating a vehicle, and touching door handles can all bring germs into your space. Wiping those surfaces down regularly can improve the cleanliness of your space and help prevent sickness from affecting your environment! According to the CDC, COVID-19 can live on surfaces far longer than floating in the air, that’s why wiping down your surfaces regularly can help keep you and your officemates healthy and keep your workspaces clean!
