Starting the year right with a clean home

While 2021 saw the easing of restrictions as cases went down over the course of the year, the threat of the omicron variant has had Filipinos worried about the possibility of another wave of infections. With quarantine restrictions upped a notch recently, staying home seems to be the safest option given the current situation.

Because of this, keeping the house clean and safe is of paramount concern. Regular cleaning and disinfection lowers the chance of infection as well as keeping other disease-causing microorganisms at bay.

Start by decluttering. Unleash your inner Marie Kondo, and start tidying your space as the first step to make your home clean. Nothing feels homier whenever you see your house organized–no dirty dishes in the kitchen, no traces of shoe dirt on your walkway, no dirty laundry on the floor, and no random food wrappers sitting under the sofa.

Regularly cleaning your home after welcoming guests reduces the risk of spreading the virus. So, with a mixture of water and Pine-Sol Original, always remember to clean the places your guests visit at your home. As it has no rinsing requirement except for rubber or asphalt tile, you can just wipe down your entryway, floors, tables, kitchen countertops, bathrooms, doorknobs, windows, and other high-touch surfaces.

To prevent the home from being the mutation ground of bacteria and viruses that cause infectious diseases, like the COVID-19 virus, it is also necessary to disinfect your spaces thoroughly by using Pine-Sol Original to kill viruses on high-touch or exposed surfaces.

Pour a concentrated portion of the cleaner in a sponge or cloth and wipe it on a wet surface. To effectively disinfect and help control the spread of the coronavirus, let it remain for 10 minutes on hard and nonporous surfaces, such as finished hardwood, cement, ceramic tiles, glass, plastic, carpet, linoleum, and granite, then wash it off.
