Handles and Switches
Think refrigerator door handles, light switches, and, of course, the toilet flush handle. “They’re easily overlooked in cleaning because they’re small, and most people focus on the big things, like floors and countertops,” says Debra Johnson, a training specialist at Merry Maids. “Yet everyone touches them, so they have the most opportunity for germs.”
Clean it: Use a microfiber cloth dampened with your favorite cleaning product to wipe down handles and switches during your normal cleaning routine.
