For a lot of people, getting their home professionally deep cleaned is not an option. Why? It's because it's hard work that takes up time and a lot of companies charge a fortune to do it.

Professional Deep cleaning means almost every nook and cranny of your house will get some TLC. Places you do not normally pay attention to, such as shelves, inside of cabinets, under the bed, etc.

Deep cleaning is perfect for homes that have not been thoroughly cleaned for a long time. It is also a great option to be done before the holidays or when you are expecting guests. Landlords also get this after a tenant moves out in preparation for the new tenants before they move in.

You already know that cleaning your work place is necessary because you spend almost the same amount of time at the office and your home. However, you must be wondering, How often should you get your office cleaned?

Ideally, office cleaning should be done at least once a day but it all boils down to different factors such as how big is the office? How many people work at the office every day? Is there a pantry and washroom?

Let's take a look at each factors one by one:

1. Work space/ Work Desk- Since employees spend majority of their time at their desks, this means there's just more germs lying around ready to be cleaned. Keyboard, Desk phone, mouse, desk drawer handles, need to be sanitized regularly. The easiest way to do this is by always having disinfecting sprays and tissue. It's quick to do and won't take more than a minute.
2. Pantry- Just like your kitchen at home, pantry needs to be cleaned daily. Especially if it is used everyday by employees on their breaks. Apart from kitchen utensils, sink needs to be cleaned thoroughly cleaned because this is where the germs hang out, ready to spread bacteria. Quickest way to do it is by pouring boiling water on all parts of the sink. This technique immediately kills all bacteria. Do not forget the faucet handle! Use a disinfectant spray on the handle for cleaning.
3. Washroom- This part of your office needs cleaning daily. There's just no going around it. Make sure it's properly stocked with toilet paper and soap.
4. Floors- Because of the daily foot traffic going around the office, once a week floor cleaning is ideal. Make sure to use the right product for cleaning. It has to not just be able to disinfect, it also has to be well suited to the type of flooring your office has. Some hard wood floor cleaners are not good for tiles or vinyl.

*Achoo! *

It’s that dreadful time of the year again. Cough there, sneeze here, and feel ill everywhere! Feeling under the weather is just the worst. To gain your strength back, you made sure to take your meds on time, eat fruits and vegetables and of course, drank more water than you're used to. Great! Now you feel well and ready to get back to work.

However, leaving your house unsanitized after being sick is allowing the germs to remain in your home. You can’t afford another illness and another trip to the doctor to spend hundreds or even thousands on medication! The best and cheapest solution? Home cleaning. Yes, that’s right, the classic home cleaning.

If you do not have the time, Booking a cleaning company such as the Manila Maid is the best way to go. They offer home disinfecting service perfect for homes of families that just recovered from getting sick.

Before your house cleaner begins with cleaning job, you can pay extra attention to these important personal items.

1. Garbage Bins/Waste Baskets This is where all your used tissue filled with nasties go directly to your bin. To make sure you kill all the germs, steam clean or spray with disinfectant. Moving forward, always line your bin with a plastic bag.

2. Medicine Cup Wash your medicine cup thoroughly inside and out with warm water and antibacterial soap. Soaking in water with bleach will also help in sterilization. Some medicine cups might be made of propylene material which can withhold heat. Wet the cup and place it inside the microwave for 2 minutes.

3. Utensils Utensils are probably the most infected after feeling sick. It is very important to disinfect them to avoid another round of illness. Boil water but allow the water to stop boiling before putting in the utensils for 5 minutes. Remove them using a thong then air dry.

4. Bed Sheets and Towels Put them in the washing machine and set to hot cycle (55 degrees Celsius) for at least 3 minutes. Allergens and other stocked bacteria and virus are removed during this sanitation process as it’s too hot for them. Laundry and ironing are also done by Manila Maid.

5. Remote Control, Laptop, and Phone Before you start updating your social media after a few days of hell, disinfect your gadgets first with cotton or a paper towel, a mixture of diluted vinegar and distilled water, or just rubbing alcohol. For LCD monitors, avoid pressing harder as they are not as resilient as touch screen phones.

6. Stuffed Toys For stuffed animals, place them in a mesh bag or pillowcase and put them in a washing machine set to hot water cycle. You can remove the clothing and sew them back after the washing process. Make sure to replace the stuffing. Some stuffed toys might not be washable. Just bathe them in sunlight for a few days to let the viruses die.

Now that you have cleaned your personal stuff, let your house cleaner do the rest of the house magic.
