Disinfecting Your Clothes During the Pandemic
Disinfecting Your Clothes During the Pandemic
There are no doubts that COVID-19’s effect on the world was severe. Initial reports showed us how it ravaged the whole globe. Thus, households and businesses alike must take precautions.
Countless ways and ideas— some conventional and some rather unorthodox— have been adopted by people around the globe. One such practice is disinfecting clothes. Research indicates that COVID-19 can survive on various surfaces—including clothes. However, it is unclear for how long.
How to Disinfect Your Clothes
There are various medically approved measures you can take to disinfect your clothes:
- First of all, you need to ensure that the utmost care is taken as far as sanitization goes. Wearing gloves and throwing them away after washing the clothes is one example.
- There are various chemicals as well which can be used as disinfectants. However, a downside to this is that the quality and the texture of the material may deteriorate. This is where households as well as businesses become limited in terms of the options available to them.
- Yet another consideration – which is WHO-approved – is that you wash clothes using the water in the warmest setting. This reduces the time period for which the virus may possibly survive on the surface of the material.
