3 Housekeeping Tips During COVID-19

Diamond Maids wants to share 3 Housekeeping Tips During COVID-19. With the second wave and a new strain circulating in the United States, people are taking more precautions to help prevent exposure to the virus for themselves and their families.

Protect yourself and your family with our 3 Housekeeping Tips

Make a List of High Touch Areas

Your home and office have high-touch areas, and to help prevent possible infection, frequent disinfecting of these areas is needed. Write out a list of areas in your life that you notice are being touched multiple times daily. In addition to your observations, here are a few areas we recommend adding to your list if they’re not already there.

Doorknobs/handles
Light Switches
Refrigerators
Microwaves
Armchairs
All Bathroom Surfaces
Kitchen Surfaces
Dining Areas
Keyboards & Computer Mouses
Conference Room

When you finish writing your list, you can move on to our next tip about disinfecting and using the appropriate products.

Use EPA-Approved Disinfecting Products

When cleaning and disinfecting high-touch areas within your home and office, it’s essential to use an EPA-approved disinfectant to kill the COVID-19 virus. On the United States Environmental Protection Agency’s website, they share the List N: Disinfectants for Coronavirus, so check that your disinfectant product(s) are on there.

Keep Your Distance from People Who Are Sick

Staying away from people who are sick might seem like an obvious tip, even when we’re not in the middle of a pandemic, but more often than not, we’ve had to be by a sick coworker or family member before this all started.

If you must be near an ill family member, take precautions to prevent becoming sick. We recommend wearing gloves, a mask, setting up a room for the person who is ill, and limiting your time going in there.
