The importance and practical methods of cloth disinfection
In daily life, as an indispensable tool for cleaning, the cloth frequently comes into contact with various stains and bacteria, and its hygiene condition directly affects the quality of our living environment. However, many households and workplaces often neglect the disinfection of cleaning cloths, leading to the growth of bacteria and becoming a health hazard. Therefore, the importance of cloth disinfection cannot be ignored.
1、 The importance of cloth disinfection
1. Preventing the spread of diseases: Wiping cloths can easily be contaminated with various pathogens such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, etc. If not disinfected in a timely manner, these bacteria may spread to food, tableware, or human surfaces through the cloth, causing diseases.
2. Improve cleaning effectiveness: Disinfected cloths can more effectively remove stains and bacteria, avoid cross contamination, and improve the overall effectiveness of cleaning work.
3. Extend service life: Regular disinfection can prevent the cloth from becoming moldy and hard, prolong its service life, and reduce waste.
2、 Practical method of cloth disinfection
1. Hot water soaking method: Soak the used cloth in hot water (recommended temperature not lower than 60 ℃), add an appropriate amount of detergent, soak for 10-15 minutes, and then rub to effectively remove most bacteria. Then rinse with clean water and let it dry for later use.
2. Disinfectant soaking: Use diluted chlorine containing disinfectant (such as 84 disinfectant) or specialized cloth disinfectant, completely soak the cloth in it, operate according to the proportion and time specified in the product manual, and then thoroughly rinse it to ensure no residue.
3. Microwave disinfection: For microwaveable cloths, soak them directly in the microwave and heat them on high heat for 1-2 minutes to kill bacteria. Pay attention to checking whether the material of the cloth is suitable for microwave heating to prevent damage.
4. Sunlight exposure: Ultraviolet rays in natural light have good bactericidal effects. Hanging the cleaned cloth in a well ventilated area with direct sunlight and letting it dry completely is also a simple and effective disinfection method.
5. Professional equipment disinfection: For places that require higher standards of cleaning, such as catering, medical, etc., professional steam disinfection machines or ultraviolet disinfection cabinets can be considered. These devices can quickly and efficiently kill various microorganisms on the cloth.
