The list of objects invaded by bacteria could be longer. In this article we will mention the ones we use daily. We recommend that you do not bring the following objects close to a microscope because it may be the last time you touch them, although, if you disinfect them with ozone, the number of bacteria will decrease considerably. They are:

The mobile: Our smartphone has become an extension of our hand, but it is one of the dirtiest objects that we touch every day. We carry it everywhere, support it on any surface, and clean it infrequently. In addition, the heat it emits is ideal for germs to survive.

The toilet and the flush button. In general, this button is pressed after having used the toilet and then we go on to wash our hands (and there are people who do not wash them). With this hypothesis, imagine the rest ...

Money: It passes from hand to hand and the viruses that settle on our bills and coins as well. Dr. Darlington, New York Health Commissioner, once found 135,000 bacteria on a single bill. The ATM is also not one of the cleanest places in the world with thousands of people touching the money. We should consider washing our wallets from time to time.

Toothbrush: Our toothbrush resides in one of the dirtiest places in your home: the bathroom. It contains up to 27% of the colifrome bacteria, which includes salmonella and E. Coli, so let's try to wash it often and improve our personal hygiene.

The computer keyboard: Possibly our most useful work tool, but also an ideal place for germs and fungi that affect the skin and nails. Let's try to clean it often and wash our hands well after working.

The remote control of the television: It goes through the most remote places of the sofa and passes through the hands of our family and friends. Let's start cleaning the TV remote more often if we want to avoid the spread of coliforms at home. Another tip: when you go to a hotel try to touch the remote as little as possible.

The shopping cart: The ideal would be to wash our hands after putting the purchase in the car. Hundreds of people grab the cart and thousands of bacteria travel on the handlebar, most notably E. Coli.

The scouring pad: The scouring pad you use to wash your dishes is another dirtiest object in your house: it contains more germs than the toilet bowl. A study carried out by the University of Furtwangen in Germany revealed that one cubic centimeter of kitchen scouring pads can contain up to 50 billion bacteria - a figure similar to feces. The cloths and rags are not much cleaner. The best we can do is replace them often, since cleaning them is useless and even worse.

The sink: If the scouring pads are dirty, the sinks are too. Another investigation carried out by NSF International found colifrome bacteria in 45% of sinks, compared to 9% of sinks in the bathroom.

The cutting board: While using a board to cut food is better than doing it on the counter, we must also be careful. NSF found coliform on 32% of countertops, but 18% on cutting boards is not much better. We should clean it with hot water before using it.

Light switches: The next time we clean the home, we should not forget to clean the switches, since many hands touch them.

If you realize it, the hands are a great source of germs and bacteria since all these objects have direct contact with them. But how to wash and disinfect our hands, we will deal with it in another post. Now what matters is to know and apply a disinfection method to reduce the bacteria in these items that cannot be replaced frequently, such as the toilet, for example, if we compare it with the kitchen scrubber since we can change it from time to time .

As well. The process of applying ozone in a bag is an efficient and ecological method to eliminate viruses and bacteria and with it, diseases; ozone is more effective than bleach. You will need to purchase an ozone generator for home use and suitable plastic bags. In the following image, we give you an idea of ​​how to disinfect objects, in this case, the computer keyboard, the mouse and a tablet placed in a bag by ozonizing, which is the same as disinfecting.
