3 Must-Clean Places In Your Kitchen

The West Coast Appliance and Furniture family is committed to keeping our office clean, healthy and safe for our employees and customers. We’re monitoring the COVID-19 situation daily and taking several actions in our store, which you can read on our website.

We know many people are either self-isolating or practicing social distancing to curb the spread of COVID-19. If you find yourself at home with more time on your hands, it’s always a good idea to give your house a thorough cleaning.

There are places where you clean often, but did you know there are 3 places in your kitchen which are rarely cleaned?

The next time you clean your kitchen, don’t forget these germ hot spots!

Sponges

We use them to clean our dishes, but sponges are a source of various contaminants, including things like salmonella. To clean your sponge, put it in the microwave for two minutes and then replace with a new sponge often.

Appliance handles, knobs & switches

Dirty hands easily transfer germs and bacteria to these surfaces. Clean these spots weekly with a disinfecting product, or more often if someone in your house is sick.

Microwave

There’s nothing worse than opening the microwave and seeing food splatter everywhere. Disinfect the interior of your microwave with a multi-surface cleaner once a week.

This is a period of unknowns, but if we act responsibly and safely, we will come through this difficult time together.
