What is the difference between cleaning and disinfecting?
While many use the terms “cleaning” and”disinfecting” interchangeably, there are actually differences between the two, according to the CDC.
• Cleaning refers to the removal of germs, dirt, and impurities from surfaces. Cleaning does not kill germs, but by removing them, it lowers their numbers and the risk of spreading infection.
• Disinfecting refers to using chemicals to kill germs on surfaces. This process does not necessarily clean dirty surfaces or remove germs, but by killing germs on a surface after cleaning, it can further lower the risk of spreading infection.
What are high-touch surfaces?
High-touch surfaces are those that you touch frequently throughout the day. Here are some examples:
• Tables
• Doorknobs (both sides of door and locks as well)
• Light switches
• Handles
• Desks
• Toilets (especially flushers)
• Faucets
• Sinks
• Countertops
• Cell phone and house phone
• Laptop and computer mouse/keyboard
