Given that your keyboard is dirtier than a toilet and your cell phone can give you pink eye, take a few minutes this week to clean and disinfect your work space and technology.
What you need:
- Disinfectant wipes or spray
- Canned air
- Microfiber cloths or disposable microfiber cloths
- Consider a tech putty such as Cyber Clean, or a UV Sanitizing Wand
- Hand sanitizer - keep this on your desk to sanitize your own hands throughout the day as necessary.
What to do:
- Start by clearing your desk and cleaning it like any other surface. As you start putting your things back in their places (phone, stapler, etc.), give them each a onceover with the disinfectant.
- Use the canned air to get the gunk out of your keyboard and any other items with crevices for crud. The tech putty will also work wonders here. Give your keyboard an mouse a wipe with the disinfectant as well. If it's possible, you'll get the deepest clean by removing components (such as the battery cover on your mouse) as you go.
- Give your cell phone a wipe, too.
- IMPORTANT NOTE: Never spray a cleaning product directly on an electronic device! Always spray it on a cleaning cloth first, then wipe the device. Also, never use an abrasive cleaner.
