How professional cleaners prevent the spread of bacteria
Sara Idenfors
Did you know that Soapa has a subsidiary, Västerbottenssåpa Städ AB? It consists of a team of professional cleaners who clean at companies, schools, and private homes. Together, we have extensive training and experience.
A very simple tip for preventing the spread of bacteria is to separate your cloths using color codes.
Among almost all professional cleaners, a pink/red cloth means bathroom, while a blue cloth means kitchen/living room.
By getting blue and red/pink cloths in different materials, you can easily prevent bacteria from spreading between the kitchen and bathroom at home.
- Get cloths in two colors, store the bathroom cloths in one designated place and the kitchen cloths in another.
- Inform everyone in the household that from now on, red/pink cloths are to be used in the bathroom and blue ones in the kitchen.
- We also recommend keeping an ecofiber cloth in the bathroom and one in the kitchen.
- Remove greasy dirt, soap residue, and skin deposits with soap and an ecofiber cloth. Wipe dry with a pink microfiber cloth if needed.
- For the toilet bowl, use bathroom soap, leave it to sit, then scrub with the toilet brush.
- Wipe the outside of the toilet with soap and a pink cloth.
- Clean the sink and bathtub in the same way with an ecofiber cloth and soap, then wipe dry.
- For taps clogged with limescale, fill a plastic bag with vinegar and warm water. Secure the bag around the tap with a rubber band so that the tap is soaked in the vinegar mixture. Leave it to work, then clean with the help of a small brush.
- Microfiber cloths should be machine-washed at a minimum of 60°C.
