Cleaning vs disinfecting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
In the kitchen, you can make sure surfaces are wiped and disinfected and meals are prepared with hygiene and the health of others in mind. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Let’s clarify these terms, cleaning and disinfecting for the purposes of this article because they get used interchangeably. They are sort of similar but technically different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Cleaning means removing grime, spills, and dirt from surfaces. It can mean removing germs. It’s a physical action. Disinfecting in comparison means using chemicals to kill the germs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Both work to reduce the spread of pathogens because cleaning removes the junk that inhibits the effect of disinfection and allows germs to survive. And then, in the kitchen, you often clean with sprays and wipes that disinfect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
