How to clean your kitchen counters and bins effectively

The heart of a home is often said to be the kitchen. It’s also a place where germs can easily gather. Maintaining a home that is clean and hygienic requires you to make sure your kitchen – and bins – are regularly taken care of. We’ll tell you how – follow this routine as and when required.

Kitchen Surfaces

• Spray surfaces with an antibacterial cleaner, like Dettol Antibacterial Surface Disinfectant.
• Wipe down cabinet doors, backsplashes, counters, and walls with a cleaning cloth.
• Don’t forget to clean the crevices such as around the sink and faucet.

Large Appliances

• Clean your kitchen stove with a degreasing cleaner that is tough on grease, grime and burnt-on food. Take out the burners and clean them separately with soap and water.
• Disinfect your kitchen stove controls.
• Disinfect your refrigerator when required. 

Small Appliances

• Empty appliances.
• Wipe the exterior and interior with an antibacterial wipe.

The Bin

• Take the bin out regularly.
• Always use a bin with a lid.
• To combat smells, spray the empty bin with a fragranced antibacterial cleaner to kill bacteria and leave a fresh fragrance behind.
• Replace the bin liner.
