Top 5 Hidden Germ Zones in Colorado Homes
Colorado's fresh mountain air may be clean, but your home? Maybe not so much. Dust, pet dander, pollen, and dry air all contribute to invisible germ buildup in places most homeowners ignore.
🧽 1. Kitchen Sink & Faucet Handles
These harbor more bacteria than your toilet.
Fix: Spray with hydrogen peroxide daily and use a toothbrush to scrub crevices weekly.
🪥 2. Toothbrush Holders
Frequently moistened and rarely cleaned.
Fix: Dishwasher-safe holders? Run them weekly. Otherwise, soak in hot soapy water.
🎮 3. TV Remotes & Light Switches
High touch, low priority = breeding ground.
Fix: Use alcohol-based disinfectant wipes every few days.
🧊 4. Refrigerator Drawer Seals
Traps food juice, spills, and mold.
Fix: Remove seals (if detachable) monthly and clean with baking soda + water.
🛍️ 5. Reusable Grocery Bags
Most people use them daily but wash them... never.
Fix: Machine-wash cloth bags weekly. Wipe plastic/vinyl bags with sanitizer.
