We all try hard to stay healthy when we are out in public places by wiping grocery cart handles, using hand sanitizer, using a paper towel to open the bathroom door, etc. But what about at home?
Here are 10 of the Germiest Places in the Home
10. Cutting Boards — Wooden cutting boards can be the worst. The porous surface and the cuts can harbor bacteria and all sorts of things. I understand that there are ways to sanitize wooden cutting boards, but I prefer the synthetic ones that I can throw in the dishwasher.
9. Stove Knobs
7. Pet Toys — I honestly never thing much about the pet toys, but now that I have . . . Eeeeew! My fur-babies clean toys.
6. Faucet Handles — Hand are usually dirty when we turn on the faucet.
5. Coffee Makers Reservoir
4. Pet Bowls — We run our cat dishes through the dishwasher every once in a while. We should probably do it more often. Our furry family members deserve that.
3. Toothbrush Holder
2. Kitchen Sink
1. Dish Sponges/Rags — Sponges and dish clothes can be wetted and put in the microwave for a couple of minutes to sanitize.
***Other Germy things to watch out for: Shared Phones (or any phone), TV Remote, Shower Curtain, the Vacuum, & so many more.
This list makes me think twice about touching anything in my house.
