Spray and Wash Frequently Shared Items

In an office, there are plenty of shared items, which ultimately mean that they harbor a lot of germs. Some of these items include switches, fax machines, coffee makers, photocopiers, and staplers. Having multiple people handling such items may mean that they can spread germs quickly and fast.

For you to prevent germs in the office, it is wise to invest in a bottle of disinfectant, a glove, and some wipes. It is also ideal to wipe these items frequently to curb germs and other pathogens from accumulating on them. While cleaning or using them, it is also good to wear gloves to protect your hands from contacting disease-causing pathogens.
