The Difference Between Cleaning, Sanitizing, and Disinfecting

Clean House Tips

During a time, such as this it is important to not only clean our homes which removes visible dirt, dust and debris but also disinfect them.  A misconception is that sanitization is the same as disinfecting. This is not true.  Sanitization is meant to reduce, not kill, the occurrence and growth of bacteria, viruses and fungi. Disinfecting a surface will “kill” the pathogens of viruses and such organisms. Making it more effective to rid the surface of said viruses. All EPA approved disinfectants have specific instructions and dwell times required to effectively kill pathogens. If not done as directed this would not be disinfecting rather sanitizing. Maids and Moore is trained and prepared to clean our customers’ homes and businesses and provide disinfecting services.

With COVID-19 now in our daily life we have all been compelled to take a closer look at our household cleaning. Visibly clean is just not good enough anymore. Now, more than ever before we are seeking a level of clean that compares to that of healthcare facilities.  Hospitals are required by regulation to use EPA approved disinfectants to eliminate 100% of the organisms (virus, bacteria, fungi) present on a cleaned surface. Although not required by regulation, we want our customers to have the same safety and security that comes with this level disinfection. Maids and Moore is always looking for ways to improve our service and by adding EPA approved disinfectant and offering our new Disinfecting Misting Service, we are meeting the level of disinfection our customers need. We should all feel safe in our home environment and Maids and Moore wants to help achieve that.

Amazing Household Tips

Managing home errands is not a walk in the park. There are many tips that you can follow to help keep your home clean and organized. In this article we dive into five amazing household tips to make your day-to-day life a little bit easier.

Amazing Household Tips

1. Lemon Juice Cures All

Lemons are readily available and you should always have one or more in your kitchen. In addition to boosting Vitamin C in your body, lemon juice can do wonders to make your Amazing Household Tipssink smell better. If you love seafood but you don’t like their smell, you can rub lemon juice over your hands and the smell will be no more. Interestingly, a splash of lemon juice on your vegetables adds flavor and freshness.

2. Always Keep White Vinegar On Hand

A solution of white vinegar and water is one of the best natural cleaning products you can ever have in your home. Vinegar is cheap and can do wonders. For instance from cleaning the garbage disposal, to washing your produce, and you can as well splash a cupful of vinegar in your washing machine to soften scratchy fabrics such as towels, the usefulness of vinegar is extensive.

3. You Should Have as Many Toothbrushes as Possible

It goes without saying that your home has toothbrushes for cleaning your teeth. But did you know that a toothbrush can do more than just keeping your teeth clean? Well, soak a toothbrush in a solution of white vinegar and hot water and use it to scrub the hard-to-reach places all over your home, such as the kitchen sink, the kitchen back-splash tiles, the bathroom faucet, and also the dreadful corners of your shower.

4. Baking Soda is Excellent in Removing Stains

Stains in your home are undeniably inevitable and if you want to live in a clean place, baking soda paste can aid in cleaning stains. From blood to ink, baking soda is your answer to remove the pesky stains; all you need is to mix baking soda with warm water. However, if you want to get rid of stubborn blood stains on your clothes or carpet, use cold water instead of warm. A mixture of baking soda and hydrogen peroxide can also be used to whiten your teeth.

5. Multi-purpose Use For Cooking Oil

Cooking oil in your kitchen can do more than aid in your cooking. Rub little oil over your Amazing Household Tipshands when chopping hot peppers and it will do wonders in preventing chemical irritant from sticking to your hands. If you love using a box grater, rubbing oil on it would prevent food from sticking to it and also enhances the performance of the grater.
