Cleaning tips to keep your kitchen clean

Make use of soap and water

Using soap and water to clean your kitchen is one of the most effective ways to get rid of any germs that may be present in your kitchen. It is advised to clean your kitchen with soap and water every night after you are done using it and every morning before you start your cooking.

Disinfecting

Soap and water will disinfect your kitchen. You need to make sure that your kitchen is thoroughly cleaned. For this, you can pick out products which have bleach or hydrogen peroxide as it contains 70 per cent alcohol solutions. 

Avoid using home remedies

For kitchen cleaning, if you are using natural ingredients like salt, vinegar lemon then you may be wrong. These ingredients are good for basic cleaning. But when it comes to killing stubborn viruses, it may not be effective. 

Drying

It is said that one must not use their kitchen right after cleaning it. After you are done cleaning your kitchen with water, you need to allow enough drying time. Rather than using a kitchen towel to dry the surfaces, air drying is always a better option as the kitchen towel may contain all sorts of germs. 

Make use of the dishwasher

If you have a dishwashing machine in your kitchen, you have to use it more often. The temperature rise in the dishwashing machine will clean and disinfect the utensils thoroughly.
