3 Tips for Cleaning Your Kitchen (And Keeping it Clean)

Posted by Cleanercleaner on January 21st, 2014

Believe it or not the kitchen area in most homes has more bacteria and germs than the bathrooms.  What’s even more disturbing is that most people believe that their kitchen is the cleanest area in their home, eating food straight off kitchen counter tops and preparing meals for friends and family every day without any concern for their health or safety.  Having a clean kitchen helps to lower the risk of becoming sick from food-borne illnesses. It also means that you will have an area in your home that you will be proud to show off to friends and family when they over to visit. 

Here are 3 tips you can use to get your kitchen spotless, and keep it that way:

1. 1.    Sanitise Your Kitchen (Weekly)-You want to sanitise your kitchen weekly.  This consists of you washing and disinfecting your entire kitchen from top to bottom.  All rubbish bins, surfaces that people touch like doorknobs, handles, light switches anything that can harbours bacteria should be sanitised. Clean your kitchen floors by sweeping and mopping weekly. Immediately clean up any spills or messy areas.
2. 2.    Preparing Food-Food sanitation is extremely important to keeping your kitchen clean. When storing meat that you purchased from the market use freezer safe storage bags and wipe down your working area immediately after you’re done.  Wash produce before storing it in your fridge-freezer.  Use different cutting boards for preparing/storing meats, veggies, and fruits.
3. Keep Your Kitchen Organised-Easier said than done, we know, but it really is important to keep your kitchen organised. An organised kitchen usually means a clean kitchen, and one that will be easier to keep clean in the future. Separate food from dishes and always put things back into place once you’re done using them. Use labels when possible and invest in stackable storage containers.
