5 of The Most Forgotten Places to Clean in Your Office

Office spaces spread germs and bacteria that contribute to coughing, sniffling, and sneezing. You can find as many as 25,000 germs/square inch on your office’s keyboards, telephones, and equipment. While you might clear off and wipe down your desks regularly, there's a lot more that goes into cleaning a commercial space to ensure it’s germ-free. This is because bacteria count multiplies more quickly in those forgotten and neglected surfaces in your office.
​
Here are just a few places you want to be sure not to miss!

1. Door Knobs
You and your co-workers frequently touch handles and doorknobs around the office. Every day, you may touch at least half a dozen knobs and drawer handles in your office space alone. They harbor all manner of germs and bacteria, which you should clean regularly to help prevent the spread of germs.
​
2. Electronics

Your computer and keyboard collect dust and germs, but so do copiers, printers, shredders, and other office equipment. With multiple employees using the equipment, germs can quickly spread all around the office space. However, be sure to take special precautions when cleaning and caring for these devices, as you don’t want to damage them with harsh cleaning chemicals.
​
3. Workplace Greenery

Whether it’s artificial greenery or potted plants, they gather a lot of dust and bacteria. While you may overlook them because they aren’t high-touch areas, it is still important they are regularly cleaned. A professional cleaning company like Majik Cleaning Services will provide the special care you need to protect your office’s greenery.

4. Office Phones
Your office phones collect bacteria, germs, and dust, particularly around the receiver and mouthpiece. Even though you use phones every day, it’s surprisingly easy to overlook cleaning the phone. Some studies even indicate that phones and other communications equipment can harbor more germs and bacteria than bathrooms.
​
​5. Fixtures

Light fixtures and other wall-hanging items fester a lot of germs, bacteria, and dust. They’re often at the edges of your view, which may be why they are overlooked or completely forgotten. These hangings and fixtures often require care and special handling to preserve and protect them while being cleaned.
