Of course, using Lighting
for Human Health’s™ Purifaire Antiviral System™
will kill airborne germs in your home. Here are
some other tips for disrupting the transmission of germs in your
home:
- Wash your hands with soap and water whenever
you come in from the outside.
- When you sneeze, sneeze into your upper arm.
This both limits the range of the area that you contaminate and,
unlike sneezing into your hand, prevents you from immediately
going and contaminating the next thing that you touch.
- When disinfecting your counters use a proven
germ killer such as chlorine bleach. Also disinfect other frequently
touched surfaces, such as doorknobs.
- Put your toilet lid down before you flush.
This is not a skirmish in the Battle of the Sexes. In the argument
about whether the toilet seat should be left up or down; the correct
answer is: You’re both wrong, the seat is not the important
element! Everyone should be trained to put the lid, not just a
seat down. That’s what it’s for. Did you think it
was just for decoration? If ever you had seen, even once, how
many disgusting particles, including germs, were spewed into the
air by a toilet flush, you would never forget to put the lid down
again. Enough said.
- Tend to your toothbrush. Keep your toothbrush
put away to not be a setting place for bathroom pathogens. (especially
if you haven’t yet mastered the habit of putting the lid
down before you flush the toilet. Think about it. Yuck.) Change
toothbrushes after you’ve been sick. Disinfecting your toothbrush
periodically is a good idea. There are products on the market
that use germicidal techniques similar to ours, applied to toothbrushes.
Another approach that may also be effective is soaking it in a
mouthwash that claims to kill germs. A physician friend uses medical
alcohol (ethanol), but that is harder to obtain. DO NOT USE RUBBING
ALCOHOL.
