How To Clean Your Smartphones To Prevent Spreading Germs And Bacteria by Bestchild: 10:12am On Mar 05, 2020 |
1. Microfiber cloth One of the easiest ways to clean your smartphone – especially after someone else has touched the screen – is to wipe it away. However, according to Prof. Gerba, the end of the shirt is not enough to clean the screen, therefore you need a microfiber cloth. You can store microfiber cloth in your wallet or purse, so you can quickly use it to wipe your device. 2. Rubbing with alcohol and water Microfiber cloth helps, but for a better cleaning rate, Prof. Gerba recommends trying a mixture of alcohol (60 percent) and water (40 percent) to rub on the entire surface of the smartphone. “To use it, gently wet the corners of a soft, lint-free, or cotton microfiber cloth,” said Prof. Gerba. “Gently wipe the smartphone to kill bacteria and use a dry corner of the cloth to remove excess fluid in your smartphone,” he added. The thing to remember, do not spray the solution mixture to your smartphone, because it can damage the device 3. Disinfectant wipes If you want a more practical way without having to make an alcohol and water solution, you can try using disinfectant wipes that are usually sold in packages, said Prof. Gerba. However, you need to be careful using it on your device. Disinfecting wipes may be a better choice for use on your smartphone case. 4. Hand sanitizer One of the best ways to stay germ-free during the flu season is to wash your hands frequently. Make sure you use soap and warm water to rinse for at least 20 seconds. Using hand sanitizers is also a good idea. However, Prof. Gerba noted that most alcohol-based cleaners only work when it gets wet and evaporates quickly. The best choice is one that offers long-lasting protection, you can choose a hand sanitizer product that can kill germs longer. https://naijaknowhow.net/how-to-clean-smartphones/ 1 Like
