Don't be careless, cell phones can be the dirtiest thing

Did you know that cellphones are the things you hold the most, and the dirtiest things? Sticking dust and dirt on the surface of the cell phone, which is rarely cleaned, can be a means of spreading germs. This is certainly dangerous for health.

It is undeniable that mobile phones are one of the multifunctional tools used to communicate, search for information, expand social networks and facilitate work. But often, we don't realize that there is a lot of invisible dirt and germs attached to the gadget. One study even mentioned that cellphones are 10 times dirtier than toilet seats!
Get to know the germs on the surface of your cellphone
According to research, Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli are types of bacteria that are often associated with cellphones.

Staphylococcus aureus is found on the surface of the skin, nose and respiratory tract. This bacterium can actually help inhibit the growth of other bacteria that can cause disease.

But when the immune system is weak or the growth of Staphylococcus aureus increases rapidly, this bacterium is really dangerous and can cause infections in the body.

Bacillus cereus, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Escherichia coli are known to cause diarrhea, urinary tract infections and pneumonia. So, if you are often in a health facility, the risk of sticking these germs on your cellphone will also increase.
 
Tips for keeping your cellphone clean

Given the amount of bacteria and germs that can be attached to the cellphone that you use every day, you need to know the following tips and ways to keep it clean:
 
Always wash your hands

Whenever possible, always keep your hands clean. One method is to get used to washing hands with running water and soap.
 
Do not place the cellphone elsewhere

Place the handphone in a clean place. It is best to avoid putting cell phones on tables and chairs in public places, such as restaurants, public transportation, banks or hospital rooms.
 
Clean the surface of the phone regularly

You need to clean the surface of the phone regularly. The surface of the cellphone can be cleaned with a microfiber cloth moistened with water to moisten, hand sanitizer or wet wipes containing alcohol or disinfectants, such as chlorhexidine and triclosan.

Cleaning the surface of a cellphone with a cloth containing chlorhexidine and triclosan can significantly reduce the number of obedient bacteria. But keep in mind that when cleaning the surface of the cellphone, avoid the speaker and charger port to prevent damage to the gadget due to liquid intrusion.
